Between counting we’ve also been looking back at the 2025 shows and the patterns that you really loved. Two of our designers really hit the spot this year: Tracy Birch and Jemima Bicknell.
Tracy was asked to design a garment in our new Speckledy 4-ply, and the result was the wonderfully stylish Speckledy Waistcoat. Earlier in the year, her double knit take on a frock coat, Quito, was also an instant favourite. Jemima Bicknell – our technical editor – can also occasionally be persuaded to design, and we’re always glad when she does! Her short, fitted jumper Hayworth drew plenty of admiration, as did Tendu, a beaded summer top knitted in our delicious suri alpaca 4-ply. And while Jemima’s beaded accessories weren’t new this year, they still carry that unmistakable glittery wow factor.
We can’t wait to see your finished pieces… and watch this space for new designs in 2026!
