Fabrics: Sewing Pattern Inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Except where noted, all pattern links will take you to the pattern listing on Threadloop (a social media site designed by and for sewists). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Baumwolltwill,<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dark Olive Green Cotton Twill:<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This fabric would be great for light jackets or anoraks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

beginner (and plus size) friendly Belmore Jacket pattern from Muna and Broad<\/a> (English language). The Dark Blue Linen below would also make a lovely Belmore Jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am using this fabric to make the shorter version of the Darcy Coat by the Modern Sewing Company<\/a>, using the Linen Wool Blend below as a lining. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Dark<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dark Blue Linen<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

At 270 g\/m2 this linen is a nice weight for overshirts and light jackets. It would also make a beautiful dress or skirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kirsti from TAUKO Magazine & Stefanie Kroth<\/a> (in German and English \u2013 Threadloop links to the English version) is a zero waste skirt pattern with a very interesting series of pleats at the front. The linen would be lovely, although given the slightly looser structure of the weave the skirt may need to be work with a slip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Potting Smock by Allotment Clothing<\/a> (English language) is an intermediate level workwear inspired smock, featuring felled seams and a lovely collar. I have not yet sewn it, but it is on my short list. (The Dark Olive Green Twill above would also make a great version of this smock)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimatium Dress by TAUKO &\u00a0Liz Haywood (Elizabeth M. Haywood)<\/a> (English \u2013 unknown sewing level). Maybe I am showing my age, but this zero-waste dress or duster reminds me strongly of the linen jacket worn by Kiera Knightly as Elizabeth Bennet in the 2005 version of Pride and Prejudice. The pattern was originally published in TAUKO issue no. 9<\/a>. (I have this issue currently in stock \u2013 this link goes to the listing on my website)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Linen<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Linen Wool Blend<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This fabric would be wonderful as fall overshirts, slightly more robust button-up shirts, or fall dresses. As an experiment, I\u2019m using it as a lining in a jacket made from the Dark Olive Green Twill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swing from TAUKO Magazine & Kaisa Rissanen<\/a> (English, confident-beginner sewing level) is a big swishy dress that would be great for fall layering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vernon Shirt by Cashmerette<\/a> \u2013 (English only, Intermediate sewing level) Cashmerette is another pattern designer who focuses on creating clothing in inclusive size ranges, and along the way creates excellent tutorials about fitting a wide variety of body shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Light<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Light Blue Linen<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

At 210 g\/m2 this linen would be lovely used in heavier collared shirts, and blouses<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revel Topper by Sew House Seven<\/a> (English) \u2013 confident beginner, features a shawl collar with construction details that allow for embroidery, or using different fabrics to play with color blocking. This collar would also look great with a vest, or with a small scarf. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alea Shirt & Dress by Sew Lala <\/a>Patterns<\/u><\/span><\/font> \u2013 intermediate (in German and English) a beautiful, classic, relaxed collared shirt or shirtdress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Yarns: Knitting Pattern Inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are local to Jena, or planning a trip to Jena soon, all yarns mentioned here may be purchased directly from Fadenwohl in person. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All pattern links below will take you to the pattern listing on Ravelry (a social media site designed by and for knitters).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Lang<\/a><\/figure>
\n

Lang Yarns Vaya & Regina<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Vaya<\/strong> has a structure that highlights stitches, making it particularly good for textured knits, like this Coral Reef Scarf pattern by Lisa Hannes<\/a>\u00a0, or this ribbed camisole \u2013 the C\u00c9CILE Top pattern by Susanne M\u00fcller<\/a> maybe for layering under something like the Alea Shirt & Dress?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another idea for Vaya<\/strong> is lovely large shawl filled with interesting textures and techniques: KOLDING pattern by ChrisBerlin<\/a> (Pattern available in English, German, and several other languages). It may be worked in a single color, but it also includes a section that the designer suggests could be knit in a second color. This scarf could also be knit with the Nomad yarn (below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regina<\/strong> develops a soft halo, making is particularly lovely in this classic beginner friendly scarf: Sophie Scarf pattern by PetiteKnit<\/a>\u00a0(Pattern available in English, German, and several other languages)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both the Sophia Scarf and the Coral Reef scarf patterns can be easily adjusted to create scarves of different sizes, from neat small scarves that lend a little warmth and a pop of color on a fall day, to lovely long scarves to hide in on arctic days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Lang<\/a><\/figure>
\n

Lang Yarns Nomad<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The classic beginner friendly Sophie Scarf pattern by PetiteKnit<\/a>\u00a0 would also look fantastic knit with Nomad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You could also knit soft fingerless mittens, like these Stamsund Mittens by Simone Bechtold <\/a> (available in English and German) which feature an interesting broken rib pattern and a shaped thumb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KOLDING pattern by ChrisBerlin<\/a>\u00a0(available in English, German, and several other languages) creates a large shawl full of interesting textures and knitting techniques. The pattern can be worked in a single color, but the designer also suggests working a section in a second color. Perhaps the two shades of Nomad? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those looking to knit all around classic light sweater for layering, the Niamh pattern by Isabell Kraemer<\/a>\u00a0(in English, German, and several others)features a v-neck, thoughtful construction, and a lot of movie night friendly stockinette. . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"West<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

West Yorkshire Spinners Blue Faced Leicester<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This yarn is basically perfect for everything. Soft enough for hats and cowls, it would also make great wrist or leg warmers. But I really think of this yarn, especially in these color-ways, as ideal for vests and sweaters. Maybe you have chosen to make a top with a structured collar out of the Light Blue Linen, the green BFL would shine as a vest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Herbstieble Stulpen by Madame Nadelspiel <\/a>(available in German) Basic, beginner friendly leg-warmers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CARA M\u00fctze by Susanne M\u00fcller<\/a> (available in German and English) because everyone needs a good basic beanie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The All Season Vest by Noriko Ichikawa <\/a> (available in English, Japanese, and Korean) has become one of my favorite go to patterns for classic v-neck vests. The neckline feature subtle shaping at the neck and shoulder edge to create a better fit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravelry: SeedySweater pattern by Clarissa Schellong<\/a>:\u00a0(in German, the English is coming soon) Featuring a really interesting v-neck and cool rib structure, this sweater is worked flat. If made slightly oversized it could be lovely worn over the Revel Topper, or Vernon Shirt, and also great worn under a jacket one of the jackets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravelry: Oheka pattern by Orlane Sucche<\/a>: (English) A slightly oversized v-neck sweater, worked flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"West<\/a><\/figure>
\n

West Yorkshire Spinners Fable<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ravelry: Novice Slipover pattern by PetiteKnit:<\/a> (available in English, German, and many other languages) A beginner friendly pattern that would look great paired over (or under) most of the suggested pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Lang<\/a><\/figure>
\n

Lang Yarns Carpe Diem<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Everyone needs a warm hat for winter. The Dual Loop Beanie pattern by Other Loops<\/a> (available in English, German, and more) is a classic ribbed beanie.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For matching ribbed fingerless-mittens, perhaps the Dual Loop Beanie could be paired the Berno Mittens by Hanna kleen <\/a> (available in English and German).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another idea to bring extra warmth to a light fall jacket could be the Gujo collar pattern by aegyoknit, by Karoline Skovgaard Bentsen<\/a>\u00a0(available in English, German, and more).

And for those more experienced knitters looking for a giant warm sweater filled with interesting yoke textures, Ranunculus pattern by Midori Hirose<\/a> (available in English, French, Japanese, and Spanish)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
