Introducing the new lotus shawl (she is still lacking in an official name but it will come, soon enough):







She will make her debut next weekend, at the Downtown Knit Collective’s Knitters Frolic. We are both looking forward to it. :)

I’ve been fiddling around in my mind for several years now the terms of a re-design/re-organization for the Oceanwind Knits website. Finally getting round to it.
It’s always a little bothersome to have something on your mind, isn’t it?
Feels good to get this all together.
It will also be nice to have more active content - check this space regularly for the newest Oceanwind Knits products.
