jay - pdf pattern
note: this purchase is for a pdf pattern. you will receive a download link upon purchase.
the forage collection digs deeper into canada’s fibresheds by highlighting multiple players within each region through a combination of interviews and accompanying patterns. the second collection focuses on alberta’s fibreshed. my interview with custom woolen mills can be watched here.
our scavenger friends might get a bad rap, but birds like blue jays and magpies are essential players in a local ecosystem. this pattern gives them a worthy nod of appreciation with the focus of a bespoke feather chart on the back of each hand.
stay warm in cold northern winters with a good wooly pair of colourwork mitts. the floats caught inside will create an extra layer to protect you against biting winds, and using non-superwash woolen spun canadian wool will ensure you have a yarn capable of standing up to the harshest of climates.

yarn: 117 yards (107 metres), 60g of worsted weight yarn (mc) AND 48 yards (44 metres), 25g of worsted weight yarn (cc)
samples shown in custom woolen mills’ mule spinner 2ply (100% canadian wool, 216 yards 198 metres, 112g) x 1 skein each in 03 dark grey (mc) and saxon blue (cc)
