New Sheep(ish) Toddler Jacket in Creative Knitting!
The January issue of Creative Knitting is out now and includes an interview with me as well as the pattern for my homage to the first sweater–a brioche rib jacket– my mom knitted for me when I was a baby. It was pretty cool to be able to make a using Sheep(ish), then have my daughter model it. I tell ya, knitting is the gift in my life that keeps on giving!
My daughter wearing my version, knit in Turquoise(ish).
Me in 1974, wearing the original version my mom made me.
I got to celebrate my birthday in Iceland this year, which is pretty much the perfect place to rock knitwear. I was pleased as plaid to finally be able to wear the cowl I designed for the Fall Quarterly Box. Here it is, in the wilds of Seljalandsfoss!

This season I decided to tap out of Black Friday craziness, but am honored today to post a comprehensive, linkable list of the 175+ individual small businesses that YarnYAY! has partnered with over the years. Go to the link in my @vickiehowell bio to learn more!
Supporting fellow small businesses is a core value for me and Team YarnYAY!, and we've been honored to collaborate with so many amazing indie design, dye, and maker companies. This Small Business Saturday, and every day, shop small. Your purchasing power matters.
This is a beautiful idea. I love the inspiration pic, too!
