scrumptious knits by designer carol feller, is a slim collection of seven projects, all knit from fyberspates scrumptious yarn, a merino/silk blend available in a variety of weights.
the ebook is available both on ravelry and on the designer’s site; patterns can also be purchased separately.
the collection includes three sweaters that reflect carol’s keen eye for detail. cables, openwork, or unique construction are used to accent garment lines and provide shaping, both physically and visually.
so that even the warmer sweater styles have a lovely, feminine quality.
the yarn choices contribute to this as well; you can tell that the fabrics have a luxurious hand and beautiful drape—just the thing to provide a lighter edge to heavier cabled panels and textures.
carol uses the lighter weight version of scrumptious to create several accessory projects—a lace shawl, fingerless mitts, and a hat.
i like the vintage look of the hat and mitts in particular.
while the sweaters are a bit more involved, the accessory projects are simple and very giftable. if you have fyberspates yarns in your stash, this might be the book for you.
carol has graciously provided us with a giveaway hardcopy version of her booklet; if you’d like to be eligible to win a copy, please leave a comment at the end of this post by 9pm EST on monday, april 23rd. we’ll choose a name and report back (hopefully) on tuesday when i’m back at my desk.
good luck and have a great weekend!

Oh these do look nice. I’d love to be in the running for the book – but will probably buy some of the designs if I don’t win. Thanks for pointing this out Anne!
Oooh, Carol Feller, I’ve always admired her designs but have never knitted one up till now. Maybe I’ll be lucky?

The red short sleeved cardi has particularly caught my eye. Lovely1
Love the Hat and Cowl. And I love the little red sweater. Would be perfect work attire.
Thank you so much for sharing this designer and collection — I’ve add the gorgeous Bakersville hoodie to my list of favorites on Ravelry, and am completely in love with the Maenad shawl, which I’m certain I wouldn’t have found without the nudge from this post.
Reading your blog is always such a treat, Anne, no matter who is posting — it’s wonderful to see the beauty that you surround yourself with (home, garden, good eats, friends, travels, and KNITTING), but the generosity you express toward others in the industry is delightful both to see and to benefit from. Thank you for sharing!
What a great collection!
I Love the attention to detail.
Love, love the patterns in this book. Haven’t seen a collection of patterns that had so many I would like to knit. Especially like the vintage hat and gloves.
So many lovely patterns in this collection. Although there is no fiberspates scrumptious in my stash (yet) these patterns would make it easy to go out and get some!
