Turas is now available to purchase as a stand-alone pattern, or as part of the Celtic Knits Club 2022 Digital collection

The Celtic Knits Club 2022 collection will include 5 pattern, plus extensive step-by-step video workshops for all the club patterns. You will also have exclusive access to the KnitHub club forum.

Note that each new workshop is only released at the same time as the pattern, with pattern releases in March, May and June. All workshops are full captioned.

Updated version sent on 03 January 2023. Changes have been made to Chart B2, and to Method, Section 1.

Turas is inspired by the journey of Celtic culture; of different elements coming together, moving apart, and changing over time. The cable motif expresses this idea through a combination of simple rope cables, travelling stitches and braids. The garter stitch body is shaped using short rows.
