Pom Pom Winter 2019

The new Pom Pom Quarterly is gorgeous, as usual. Let's have a peek at Winter 2019, which feels like a sunset on the beach a little bit.

This last one here with the colorblocking and the stripes is my favorite, and it's crocheted, of course...which I don't know how to do. Sigh. They are all lovely though. Pom Pom does it again!

Pom Pom Quarterly

Hello, pretty new Pom Pom Quarterly, where everything is lovely and beachy and serene.

Pom Pom, Summer 2019

Hello newest Pom Pom! In addition to all of the lovely projects, this issue contains an article by Emi Ito about cultural appropriation and diversity. She touches on some really important points about how we as makers can be more thoughtful and aware with our work and actions. Definitely an important read for all of us who have room to grow and learn form each other.

And the projects are gorgeous! Loving the textures and patterns on these sweaters.

I don't know how to crochet, but this bag is gorgeous and now I want to learn. Thank you, Pom Pom, for inspiring me to learn new things!

Eye Candy

I don't have as much time as I would like to make things right now, but I am still collecting publications like these for inspiration and serenity. When my brain needs a five minute break, I find I am so much happier flipping the pages of these lovely publications than I am staring at my phone. 

I am gathering my materials to make Apricite from the cover of Laine Magazine Issue 7. The orange Rowan Felted Tweed is from a frogged project (we have this in stock at the shop though), and this stormy blue Lang Lace is what Melissa and I decided would be the perfect thing to hold along with it. I can't wait to get started after I graduate next month!

Pom Pom for Spring!

The new Pom Pom is really cute! Let's take a peek at my favorites.

Loving that cover sweater, Woodwardia, in a good ol' worsted weight. The raglan details and that cozy turtleneck might not say spring, but I can see this being a great sweater to pull over my PJs on those chilly mornings.

How about a lovely crocheted top? I know we have a nice selection of sport weight linens and cottons in the shop for this Water Clover.

The Sweetfern hat has a little bit of brioche and some beautiful texture. So many fingering weight yarns to choose from.

The lovely Adiantum is sweet and unusual. That colorwork is so delicate!

I am loving the structural lines of Ginkophyte, worked in a fingering weight yarn with that pretty panel of texture.

Finally, Vivarium, designed with the fabulous Retrosaria Beiroa, which we are loving in the shop. This rustic wool in gorgeous shades is just perfect for a graphic colorwork design like this one. There are some fun color swatches in the magazine so you can visualize different combinations.

I like the pop of neon in the green version, but that black one with the neutral shades really gets me. 

Pom Pom is such a great publication, and these are just a few of the pieces in this issue. It's great to see such lovely spring designs!

New how-to-knit book in the shop with super cool projects! K-n-i-t H-o-w from Pom Pom is informative and modern with projects for everyone.

Pom Pom Quarterly

The latest issue of Pom Pom Quarterly is here! It has a very dramatic and Victorian feel to it, with lots of high-impact pieces with some seriously noticeable details. Let's have a look.

This issue includes pieces by Veronik Avery, Cirilia Rose, and Joji Locatelli, with Norah Gaughan as the guest editor. You know there will be some cult following for these pieces and designers!
