Alpine Yarns

🍂 It’s taken me a while to pick up this project again but I have finally finished the body of my Moray Sweater 🍂

This is my first time knitting a sweater in colourwork so am really stepping outside of my comfort zone on this one.

Pattern by and yarn by . Can’t wear to wear this one 🙂

🏔️ Nothing like camping overnight on a giant popsicle to test out a beanie out in the field 🥶

🧊The Summit beanie by .stitched is hands down my new favourite hat to take with me in the hills, particularly for overnight camping on glaciers.

Nothing like chunky merino to keep your melon toasty 🙂

🌟 Exciting news! 🌟

I’m thrilled to be donating 4 of my handmade beanies as spot prizes for the 2026 , happening this Saturday, March 14, in Twizel! 🧶💖

This beautiful community event supports local water activities, safety programs, and amazing groups in the Mackenzie region. I love being able to give back in a small way while sharing a bit of warmth from my craft. ❄️✨

Wishing all the swimmers an incredible time in the water – you inspire me! 💪🏊‍♀️

🍂 Happy first day of Autum! 🍂

Although it hasn’t been the warmest summer we’ve had, I still enjoyed every second of it. All the sunsets, all the time outside and all the goodies our garden has to provide 🍒🍓🍅

Bring on all the goodness the fall season has to offer and getting back into knitting 🙂

🌲 This Mental Health Awareness Week, let’s take a moment to appreciate how something as simple as knitting can nurture our minds as much as our hands.

🧶 Each stitch offers a pause, a breath, and a gentle reminder to slow down—proof that small, steady moments can bring the greatest sense of calm. 💛

👋🏼G’day all!

🌿 It has been a minute! Spring is showing its face and I am slowly coming out of my winter hibernation.

Winter has been busy as, with little time to knit or post. In the last 3 months I have:

✨ Started a new full time job with a renewable energy company ♻️
✨ Completed my 7-day long fire fighting course 🚒
✨ Travelled for work to volunteer at sponsored events 🏃🏼‍♀️
✨ Started working with an amazing personal trainer ( ) to keep me strong and fit 💪🏼

🌱 Starting fresh this spring with a new logo design I have been playing with and slowly looking at getting back into some knitting projects ☺️

❄️ Winter has arrived in the MacKenzie ❄️

And what better time to finish some by ☺️

A fun and quick knit, super cozy in bulky merino. Perfect for chilly mornings in Mount Cook of -13 🥶
