But, as always with my designs, there had to be a story behind it too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy children and I have always loved castles, especially those ancient, windswept places that seem to belong in a fairy tale. Add a little snow, some dramatic stonework and a healthy dose of imagination, and \u003cem\u003eCastles in the Snow\u003c\/em\u003e was born!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pattern also gives us the opportunity to explore a few other techniques along the way, including \u003cstrong\u003ewelts and I-cords\u003c\/strong\u003e. These can feel a little daunting at first, but they’re fantastic skills to have in your knitting toolkit—and I love finding ways to sneak a new challenge into a project without it feeling overwhelming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo this isn't just a hood to keep you cosy. It's a little knitting adventure: a chance to play with colour, texture, shaping and techniques\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independent Designer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57359660253562,"sku":"UPID251844","price":6.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/c51e8e018a12736d3df14021fedce6083851b7bf_UPID251844_179136812094356.jpg?v=1791421460","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-us\/products\/castles-in-the-snow-hood-knitting-pattern-by-ellie-tyddyn-bryn","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
