Whether your autumn days are spent among a gathering of friends for pick-up football games or gathering the last of the summer’s bounty for preserving, a hefty hat can protect from brisk winds and cold ears, giving us a bit more time outdoors to enjoy the best of the season.

Thistledown is light enough to be dispersed on the wind. But some of us sleep more soundly when snuggled by the heft of a weightier blanket. That close embrace can provide a gentle, constant pressure, producing a calming effect. We hope that this bulky throw that features a botanical thistle lace will bring you sweet dreams, whether it’s used for an afternoon nap or a good night’s sleep.

Vermont’s harvest bounty wouldn’t be possible without the pollinators this sturdy over-sized smock is named for. Whether you gather your produce from your garden, a farmers’ market or your nearest grocer, this pullover has been designed to provide you with a hard-wearing outer layer that is as comfortable as it is practical. Pop it on as you head out for errands, chores and cool weather excursions this season and many to come.

Emilia Bruce, a friend of the Spinnery, based the design for this pullover on the loosely fitting tunics she wore during her childhood in Spain. A perennial favorite for men and women alike, it is simply knit with a garter stitch yoke and trim. For a contemporary look, the crocheted neck edge can be replaced by a roll neck.

Eyelets made without yarn overs, decreases that feel like they are pointing the wrong way, set-in sleeves from the top down, and picking up edge stitches from the wrong side? This pattern may challenge ideas about the “right way to do things” or at least put a new twist on the tried and true. Stay focused and read the directions carefully – the fun awaits!
