into the deep Summer fades and the cool depth of fall settles upon the horizon. Beneath the leaves blanketing the ground stirs a richness that matches the rhythm within me. Down there, where summer’s bounty has retreated into the dark, as though sinking into the deep, is a slower kind of activity. One of renewal. Change. Cultivation. Transformation. I am compelled to go gently, to make softly and slowly. Letting the stitches teach me new ways of doing as much as the fibres teach me soft ways of living. Like the way the fallen leaves teach us to surrender to the change ahead.

Everything about this new collection speaks to that concept of yielding. From the dark hues of amber and ochre, azure and cobalt, wine and plum to the oversized silhouettes and subtle textures, the pieces featured in these pages are everything needed for a cathartic, nurturing knitting season. Lush cardigans and accessories offer slowness with comfort, texture with squish, and newness with ease. Each piece brings you a little stitch closer to renewal. We hope you savor the inner and outer creation. Happy knitting, dear friends. #sweetgeorgiayarns

LAKE EFFECT worked in Superwash DK // by cheryl toy

Simple and homey, this generous wrap is a dream to wrap up in. Worked as a classic triangle, the pairing of Stockinette stitch, slipped stitches, and garter-rich openwork has a wonderfully geometric firmness that is as super fun to knit.

Lush cables amidst a fabric of ribbing promise a knit that keeps on giving. Gorgeous texture and a silky, smooth yarn are the epitome of an addictive knit that results in accessories you’ll wear all the time.

TUME worked in Superwash DK // by tabetha hedrick

The interplay between two lowcontrast hues is wonderfully dark and rustic, yet perfectly highlights the textural stitches. Fisherman’s Rib and Garter stitch provide a fascinating fabric to play with colour, light, and darkness, with a squishy accessory to wear as the result.

IOLANTHE worked in Mohair Silk DK // by sandi rosner

This might just be the sweater you want to live in all day. Threequarter length sleeves, generous pockets, and a comfortable fit, it’s as cozy as it is practical. The clever combination of stitch patterns adds zest for every knitter.

14


ROWENNA worked in Superwash DK // by sue gleave

It doesn’t matter how cold it gets outside, because this luxurious shawl, worked in a worsted-weight yarn, promises cozy warmth all season long. With a hint of lace and a wrapped stitch pattern, there’s plenty of texture and joy for everyone.

“Even in the darkness, every colour can be found� with contrast that highlights the play between light and dark.

18


DITTANY worked in Mohair Silk DK // by deborah newton

Soft contrast for delicate colourwork, this hat and mitten set is both elegant and ethereal. Knitters will love the simple stranded colour pattern, worked quickly in a DK-weight yarn, and delight in the final project that is a dream for year-round wear.

RIPARIAN worked in Bulletproof Sock // by samantha mackay

Mosaic stitch, on a fabric of Garter stitch, lets the hues shift and move like light across the night sea. Ultrasquishy, soft, and easy to knit, this cowl is a must for every lover of playful colour.

22


KEHRA worked in Superwash Worsted // by adrienne larsen

This oversized cardigan is a musthave sweater for that upcoming cold weather. Rich, modern colours pair beautifully with classic geometric motifs and large shawl collar, emphasizing the decadent feel.

THUNDERCLAP worked in Tough Love Sock // by emily wood

This dramatic shawl grabs your attention with a wide block of gradient mosaic colourwork in the center. The zigzags move like soundwaves of rumbling thunder accompanied by the shushing of rain sliding down a windowpane in the easy texture of the garter rib.

26


TURNING LEAVES worked in Superwash Worsted // by kristen tendyke

As the leaves begin to fall and the wind blows cool, this autumninspired cowl will help keep in the warmth. This two-colour pattern is engaging to knit for both those new to colourwork and the more experienced knitter.

our yarns Passionate. Relentless. Unapologetic Colour. There is something impossibly alluring about hand-dyed yarns. Everything from vibrancy to the subtle nuances in shade and hue. We develop and source the kinds of yarns we love to knit, weave, and play with. Yarns that begin with fine wools, blended with silk or decadently soft cashmere and kid mohair. Yarns that are beautifully spun and plied for strength and longevity. We believe in creating yarns that will become the foundation for fabrics, garments, and gifts that will endure. Below are the yarns used in this collection:
