'Modifying a Classic Motif' Design Diary 'Episode 12' (Patreon)

Welcome back to our 'Design Diary' series!

As the initial flush of inspiration strikes for a new design, sometimes you find yourself connecting with wonderful stitch patterns that have been around for generations. In the latest 'Design Diary' with Kay you join her as she takes you through how she approaches this very challenge.

Join Kay as she:

• Talks you through the inspiration for her recently released 'Dynamite Mitts' pattern https://bakerybears.com/dynamite-mitts/
• Discusses the yarn she used for each version of the design from https://www.edencottageyarns.co.uk and http://www.cascadeyarns.com
• Analyses how she approached creating the lace motif inspired by Old Shale
• Talks you through the idea behind the multi coloured version of the pattern
• Shows you her design book and how she approached getting the design down on paper
• Discusses her creative brain and how her motivations lead her to a finished design
