NEW PATTERN 🚨

It’s been a whole lotta minutes since I’ve published a design that’s not an accessory, so I’m happy to announce that the crochet pattern + tutorial for Tee-ser are now available! →

🔗 in bio

This boxy, cropped, open-weave top is crocheted quickly with Purl Soho Pouf — a super-chunky, light and lofty yarn. →

(🧶 Affiliates link in bio. Thank you for using it!)

The Tee-ser pattern is inclusively sized for bust/chest from 30- 64″/76-163cm, and can be lengthened or shortened for comfort. →

This crochet tee is great for beginners making their first garment, or for more seasoned crocheters who want to stitch up something stylish in a flash.→

The Tee-ser Crochet Chunky Tee looks cute over a 3/4-length sleeve top paired with a handmade skirt (I love this one by Alice Irvine), cozy over a long-sleeved thermal with jeans, and chic with a cami and wide-leg trousers.

I can’t wait to see what you wear with your Tee-ser!

Get the pattern on Ravelry or at www.vickiehowell.com

Looking for a quick and cushy project for a craft night with friends, or to make with the fam that requires ZERO experience to knit? I’ve got you — both in my book, 𝙉𝙤 𝙉𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙡𝙚 𝙆𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜, and in the class I teach tomorrow (Sunday) at 𝗙𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿 & 𝗙𝗮𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗴𝗼! ⁣

At the fest? There’s still time to grab a spot. I’ll bring the kits, you’ll leave with the knits! ⁣

Sending these off for the copies of 𝙉𝙤 𝙉𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙨 𝙆𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 that will be in the Quartos Books booth. Unfortunately, I won’t be at that part of the show in person to sign them. ⁣
⁣
I WILL, though, be at the Fabric & Fiber Craft Festival portion teaching a couple of projects from the book, and will have a limited amount of copies with me there that I’d love to sign for you. 💗⁣

KITS LINK IN BIO

Knit Collage Knit-Alongs (and the owner, my buddy Amy Small) are bright spots during times that are less so. I’m happy to once again, be partaking in the light by participating.

Last Spring, I made a head-turning cardigan, then in the Fall a gorgeous Rodeo Vest in my dream color combo. Now, I’m back again, needles at the ready for my next Knit Collage adventure!

The Willow Wrap will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine. 😉

Want to knit-along with us? Then grab your kit while you can. Sales are only open for 1 week!

(Oh, and thank you for using the affiliate link in my bio to purchase your kit. With just one click you’re supporting two, women-owned businesses!)

It never gets old seeing one of my books published internationally. I think, though, this is the first time I’ve had a Swedish edition. Thank you, Ordalaget Bolförlog for supporting No Needles Knitting — let me know how I can help promote!

Fun publishing fact: When a publishing house in another country acquires a title, they can change the cover, name, and layout (as long as it maintains the overall style of the original) to better resonate with their audience. I don’t speak Swedish (and haven’t put it through Google Translate), so I don’t know if the title changed. The cover did, though.

Swipe to compare the Swedish and U.S. versions.

Here’s to the international fiber craft community! 🧶
