After a whirlwind weekend in Vancouver for Knit City we are back home and back to work! Metropolis was a runaway hit, I didn’t bring nearly enough of it and we sold out way earlier than I had thought we would. I’m thrilled that you like it as much as we do and I can’t wait to see all of your Metropolis knits! So, without further ado…
We are having a Metropolis Dyed-To-Order Update RIGHT NOW! Metropolis is available in loads of bases + a custom 5 Skein Fade for the entire week!
The beauty of Metropolis is that it hits that sweet spot of being a super fun and dynamic speckle while at the same time being kind of a neutral. How is that even possible!? It pairs beautifully with so many of our tonal colourways, as illustrated in the lovely collage I’ve put together for you below. :)
Clockwise from top left: Tartan, Caramel, Brick, Garnet, Plum, Fig, Cloak, Slate, Aurora, Ravine, Teal, Hunter.
It would be amazing as the main colour in a colourwork sweater like Crazyheart with any of those gorgeous jewel tones as the contrast shade(s). Or how about knit in stripes in a Duochrome or Seaboard Sweater? And of course we all know it looks fab all on it’s own like in the Metropolis Sweater.
As part of this update I’ve also put together a custom set of Metropolis 5 Skein Fades. As you can probably tell, I’ve had a lot of fun prepping for the launch of this colourway. I’ve been playing around with colours and have been reminded of why I love doing what I do! it’s all about the colour and the combos and the squishing of the yarn and the joy that I get from all of it! For the millionth time THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making it possible for me to do this.
