Tak Dee Sock - Handmade lampshade

This design is inspired by my late granny, who was rarely without her makkin (knitting). I was her 29th grand bairn and I got one of her handmade fair isle jumpers  the pattern can be seen in the background of this design. When her sight started to deteriorate and she could no longer do fair isle patterns at 101 years old, she still managed to hand knit socks for her ever growing family. My memories of Granny are of her sitting quite composed before the fire making socks while watching Coronation Street.

Every shade is handmade in small monthly batches. Each month I release one design when this one comes out of archive, it’ll be available to order here. Can’t wait? Message me to request it, or join the newsletter to be first to know when it drops next.
