Indie Designer Day

Designer: Erica Mount
Rav ID: emount
Some Great Designs: emount's Rav Designer Page

I have some great patterns to tell you about.
Oh, and a GIVEAWAY!

Yes. But hear me out first. I want to tell you about a couple of this week's designer's patterns.

First up is the pictured Spear Maiden's Heart. A well done colourwork mitten is a great thing. The interaction of geometric and organic-inspired shapes on this duo-chrome design is very eye catching. And don't miss that pretty braid running along the bottom edge!

I'm also a fan of her Moonlit Coast mittens. It's inspired by the beautiful, rocky coastline of Nova Scotia. Check out the pattern page: there's examples in both two- and multi-colours.

The GIVEAWAY!
Well, as you can see, emount is a strong colourwork mitten designer, and she's very generously offered to give away a free pattern to one lucky reader! Just comment on this post between now and November 13 and let me know which of her pattern's you'd choose. Good luck!

Wow--all are lovely! I especially like the Giraffes pattern--like a safari on a mitten. :)

The Spear Maiden's Heart mittens are wonderful, and the name makes me think of the Wheel of Time book series.

All are so beautiful, it is a difficult decision to choose just one! They all have something that I like, the high contrast of the Moonlit coast mittens, the graphic lines of the Spear Maiden mittens,but I love the Giraffe at Sunset mittens the best!

Lovely! Thanks for showing me a new-to-me designer! I especially like her Endless Stripes Fingerless gloves.

Moonlit Coast mitts. I'm a sucker for the East Coast.

Definitely the spear maiden!

Oh, I'm not sure if the Moonlit Coast or the Endless Stripes is my favorite. I guess it depends on whether I'm looking for selfish knitting or gift knitting for someone very special.
