I first met Dianna Walla in 2013 at VK Live in Seattle. Dianna had just finished working on a design for Brooklyn Tweed and was working on a collection of her own. Dianna contacted me a little while later to see if I could help her find some locations for her upcoming photoshoot for her new designs. Driving around Carnation, I got to know her better and after seeing more of her beautiful designs I knew I wanted Dianna to design a pattern for Tolt.
Dianna has spent time in Norway and speaks the language so I thought a Nordic inspired design would be a perfect choice. I really wanted to use a US-sourced yarn just like how we used Imperial for the Tolt Hat and Mitts. I decided on Heirloom Romney. Romney are a "long wool" breed and their wool is strong and long-lasting making it ideal for outerwear. Heirloom Romney yarn is produced by Jeane DeCoster of California for Fancy Tiger Crafts, a craft shop in Denver, Colorado owned by Jaime and Amber.
I was thrilled with the way the Hearth Sippers turned out and couldn't wait to share the design with all of you. Dianna did an amazing job with this pattern and it works well for the entire family.
Jaime of Fancy Tiger Crafts contacted me last week and said that they were going to do a Hearth Slipper Knit-A-Long (KAL), and I asked if Tolt could join in the fun.
The Details:
- Hearth Slipper KAL will start on November 18th and end on December 16th.
-Tolt Yarn and Wool and Fancy Tiger Crafts will be offering 15% off Heirloom Romney yarn and Fiber Trend Slipper Bottoms (discount code HSKAL14) to those that want to join the Hearth Slipper KAL. Tolt Yarn and Wool will be offering this discount October 31, 2014 through November 19, 2014.
-Please share your progress with us on Facebook or Instagram by tagging us @toltyarnandwool and with #hearthslipperkal.
Happy Knitting!
