Knitting blog recommendations?

[maclover]

I'm a regular lurker on these threads and as a result have spent many a happy hour over the last few years with hook in hand. I have also enjoyed following Attic 24's blog. However, as a result of wanting to use up some lovely alpaca wool leftover from a granny stripe, I have rediscovered the joys of the circular needle and am currently enjoying creating a Fairisle cowl and am thinking about my next project - possibly a Fairisle throw, if I can find a pattern or idea. I just wondered if anyone had any decent knitting blogs that they followed where I might find some inspiration and ideas. TIA.

are you on blanket ravelry?

i like www.yarnharlot.ca/ though i don't think she does much fairisle specifically

i don't know where that rogue "blanket" came from!

this is what i was trying to link to

Hi - yes, I have wasted many a happy hour on ravelry and have a favourites list many pages long!! Will have a look at yarnharlot - thank you.

I normally just look on Ravelry to see what patterns are trending - that gives me more inspiration than I can ever hope to achieve in one lifetime :)

In terms of blogs, I love Kate Davies, Ysolda, Inspiration Knits and I think the blog from 15 year old knitwear designer Josiah Bain is charming.

For Fairisle, Ella Gordon is the real deal (as is Kate Davies). For patterns - Rams and Yowes or Tir Chonail? Warning: fairisle throw = steeking.

oh yes, kate davies is fabulous

nearly time to dig out my owls jumper!

I follow a lovely blog called Little Cotton Rabbits which is a knitting blog, and funnily enough, her last post was about fairisle.
