This weeks #featuredFriday50 pattern is Kinta. Sh This weeks #featuredFriday50 pattern is Kinta.

Showcase a gorgeous skein or two with Kinta, a light shawlette that will add a touch of easy to wear flair to your wardrobe. Worked from the bottom up, Kinta features an easy to memorise eyelet mesh pattern that is readily adapted to make the most of your yardage. Resulting in a V-shaped shawlette with tapered ends.
Kinta looks equally fabulous knit in a solid colour, gradient yarn or that special skein of hand dyed yarn you’ve been saving. Alternately, use a linen, cotton or hemp yarn for the perfect summer version of Kinta. Knit in fingering weight yarn, Kinta is easily adapted to suit your yarn quantity, with sizes written for one or two skeins.

Find Kinta in my Ravelry and Etsy stores and enjoy an automatic 50% off - no code needed.

A sweet Honeycomb pillow for Felix for Solstice ☀️ A sweet Honeycomb pillow for Felix for Solstice ☀️only 13 years in the making! I knit the stack of hexs in 2012 planning to make the gorgeous @lykkefanten Six’es throw and carried them along for 5 house moves! A few months back Felix was talking about the cleverness of bees & their honeycomb structure & I remembered my hexs. Not enough for a throw but plenty for a pillow which now lives on his bed 💛 satisfying to finally use these - there may be enough left for a tea cosy! Although now I think of if the padded one in @tinyowlknits amazing Beekeeper’s quilts would be perfect for a tea cosy 🐝 I make Andy a fresh one each year or so & he likes it to be multi-layered & well insulting to keep his tea piping hot. I’m a coffee drinker myself! 

I used a black denim for the back snd sewed it all together my sewing machine & overlocker (after hand seaming the pieces). I cut into a few of the hexs to square the edges (I hadn’t knit all of the half sizes in the pattern yet), to stabilise it I ironed a light iron on interfacing. A brass bee added for the final flourish ✨ 
“Straight to the poolroom” was his response IYKYK 🤣
