I have to get outside everyday no matter what the wind chill! Visited Falmouth town landing, to drink in the seascape, Town Landing Market for a cuppa joe and Skillin’s Greenhouse to warm up and absorb the green! It’s fun to play tourist in your own neighborhood! #thewaylifeshoukdbe #dashhappyhat #cushingcowl #getoutside #knittersofinstagram #adventuring #adventure #knitoutside #whereisMJM #maryjanemucklestone

Elements of inspiration - directly from the work of Katherine Cobey, indirectly from a bandana found in an Amsterdam thrift shop, a knit-up skein of @spincycle_yarns and a favorite pair of pants. Somehow these added up and became my Cushing Cowl, designed for a special class at the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland,ME. ✨The ombré tones in the yarn are reflected in the changing light colors of the cowl, while its sharp diagonals are from the kerchief - the entire project was invented while thinking about how Katherine thinks! 💙Cowl to be released later this week! Newsletter subscribers get a special offer so sign up! Katherine’s book can be found at Schoolhouse Press. ❄️Where does your inspiration come from? ❄️ #katherinecobey #inspiration #howiwork #indigo @quinceandco Lark #bandana #knittersofinstagram #knittingdesign #maryjanemucklestone #knitting

Comparing Shetland wool color cards. @jamiesonsofshetland @thewoolbrokers I love them both! Not all of the colors are interchangeable - I have favorites from each company ❤️ #shetlandwool #wool #knittersofinstagram #knitting #handknitting #cours #colors #colourcard #colorcard #possibilities
