GLÅSSEN | 2026 MKAL + Yarn Kits Pattern Information: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... Yarn Advent Kits: www.woldten.com/glassen-kits #knitting #knitsky #ravelry #showmeyourknits #knittersofbluesky #yarnkits #mkal #handknit
Glåssen | 2026 Yarn Advent + MKAL

This holiday season, Wöldten is offering something completely new: a yarn advent and mystery knit along, all in one.

Glåssen is a scarf built from sixteen short row shapes worked in asymmetric intervals. One main motif recurs throughout, echoing back and repeating out of sequence, mirrored both horizontally and vertically, the way a phrase gets picked up and reworked in improvisational jazz.

The design draws on the visual language of the late 1960s: mod shapes, pop art minimalism, bold graphic edges. But where that era moved fast and loud, this design moves slow and quiet.

Starting December 1st, you'll receive one small update a day through Ravelry: a section of the pattern, a work of art to sit with, sometimes a bit of music or a writing prompt. By December 25th, you'll have the full pattern in hand, along with a bonus pattern variation.

There are two color stories this year, each a genuine mystery until your bobbins arrive.

Loamwood
An old growth palette pulled up from the forest floor. Imagine sinking your feet into a mossy bank while listening to the sound of a distant waterfall. Dragonflies dart overhead, and you're drawn to the beauty in the details below.

Skyfeld
The rain clouds have dispersed, leaving the sky tinged in shades of pink grading into a beautiful blue-violet. Birdsong brightens your day, and a field of flowers welcomes you.

Kits include 24 hand-dyed bobbins from Plied Yarns and three skeins of Pokainu Yarns Bluefaced Leicester in Driftwood.

Not interested in a kit? The pattern is available on its own too. Purchase through Ravelry. A group has been set up there as well for you to join in the conversation.

Pre-order is now open and closes September 29th at midnight. Kit quantities are limited and will go on a first come, first served basis.

*NEW DESIGN* The Tintype Hat joins my Tintype Collection with its elongated hexagonal short-row shape motif. Pattern: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... Yarn courtesy of Spincycle. 🧶 #knitting #knitsky #knitweardesigner #craftsky
A model is shown wearing a long olive green cloak with hand knit hat. The hat is intentionally shown inside out and is completely reversible. 

The Tintype Hat carries the same elongated windows found throughout the Tintype Collections: recessed stockinette sinking beneath raised garter walls, like an old photograph developing in the dark. Two styles. Six variations. Twelve if worked in a single hue, where only shadow defines the shape.

It is reversible. Fold the brim along its band of slipped stitches for something tighter, closer fitting. Either way, the short-row windows hold their quiet intrigue, each one a fragment of a story only half revealed.

Knit here in @spincycleyarns Wilder and Nocturne, Snakeskin.

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted, but not because I haven’t been knitting. There are several big things in the works with more to come… In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek at my newest design scheduled for publication next week! The Tintype Hat will join my Tintype Collection. 🧶 #knitsky #knits
A photograph of a hand knit hat shown against a field of small violet colored flowers almost like lavender. The hat has sections of an elongated hexagonal short-row shaped motif that is repeated in a limited area. The motif is knit in stockinette recessed into a field of garter stitch rows. 

Yarn courtesy of @spincycle_yarns 
This design uses their Wilder in Dark Grey with Nocturne in Snakeskin which is a gradient in green tones that transition from a deep forest/hunter green into a beautiful Kelly green.

The swimming area along Rte.100 in Waitsfield is of particular concern. There are numerous signs that say not to park on the road, and yet every year people park on the road. My son was almost hit last year attempting to go around them on that blind curve as you head north. It’s extremely dangerous!

Introducing the Ferrotype Scarf 🧶 Pattern now available on Ravelry www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... Center cast-on, asymmetric short-row shape motif, slipped stitches, I-cord edge. 29-page pattern designed with love! #knitting #knitsky #knittersofbluesky #woldten
A scarf of shown spread out on the beach at Anchorage Provincial Park, Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick, Canada. The rising tide almost touches the far end as the setting sun illuminates its leading edge. 

Made with Pokainu Yarn from www.woldten.com in a beautiful 100% natural Romney in Birch with two kettle dyed skeins in Honey Locust and Quarry Hill. 

Reminiscent of hand weaving techniques, this design embraces the art of optical illusion with increasing and decreasing slipped stitches in a grid like pattern interspersed with short row shapes that travel along the perimeter and follow the corners. 

Part of the evolution of my Tintype series of designs.

Casting on a Lindal Tørkle just for fun. It’s been awhile since I knit one and I love seeing how the colors pool into the shapes. Also, I needed something bright and uplifting for this time of year. These orange tones are doing it! 🧡🧶 Pattern: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... #knitting #knitsky
Gradients of bright orange beautifully fill short row shapes in this little scarflette. A natural off-white serves as the line color.

Off-white: Pokainu Yarn, 3-ply Romney available only at woldten.com

Orange: OOAK Junction Fiber Mill Lite Making Tracks gradient

This one took longer because I was writing the pattern for it while knitting, but the one I’m doing now I’ll have done in just about two weeks. I’m catching some typing errors, so it’s all good.

New design in progress… Currently with test knitters, the Ferrotype Scarf is almost ready for publication. Part of my Tintype series of designs, this scarf uses both the short-row motif that is iconic of this collection along with slipped stitches for a unique knitting experience. #knitting 🧶
A scarf is shown draped over a coat rack inside a local coffee shop. The scarf is knit starting with a long center cast-on that beautifully showcases the long gradient yarn as it radiates outward in tones ranging from a silver grey to shades of gold. 

Yarn by Freia Fine Handpaints and Green Mountain Spinnery.

Love the look of this fiber, but Etsy listing is missing a lot of detail. There is no yarn gauge listed. Also, no recommended needle/hook sizes. A knit/crochet swatch of your fiber worked up would also be helpful to see. It’s difficult to tell what it looks like with all the thick and thin areas.

There really are no algorithms here, so this is confusing. You can manually adjust your moderation preferences to remove everything you’re talking about. When I use your same search phrase, I don’t see anything unsettling. You can also choose to follow specific feeds for knitting that are curated.
