May

Blue, wide skies filled with wheeling birds. Evenings stretch into hazy horizons, trees in silhouette. Flowers in bloom: dandelion, anemone, gorse, forget-me-not. Pack a picnic and watch the sun sink below the trees.

This month’s pattern includes a video tutorial showing how to add embroidered birds to your knits.

Year By Piece 2025

The Year By Piece 2025 Mystery Knit Along is a project designed for you to ‘knit the year’, with four new patterns each month to turn into a blanket.

Each design will be released at the start of the month, and use the core palette included in the images.

Yarn

I recommend using Cascade 220 yarn, however this pattern works really well with any Aran or DK yarn, and could be adapted to make a smaller throw if using fingering weight.

The palette is a suggestion only, and this would be a great stash-busting project.
