Carin's Bespoke Handknits

Carin's Bespoke Handknits Knitting for hire, one heirloom at a time. www.carinknits.com
www.ravelry.com/people/carinknits I am interested in both vintage and modern knits.

I'm a knitter based in Minneapolis, MN available upon request for custom knits, one-on-one knitting lessons, repairs, finishing, test knits and more. I am curious about classic techniques and styles, but at the same time I am a child of the modern era. My project bags regularly hold lace socks next to an IPad cozy, or a Norwegian sweater next to a miniature soft sculpture of Doctor Who. If you can imagine it, I can knit it.

The Little Dude.

This pint sized version of The Dude’s sweater in The Big Lebowski is a really fun baby knit. I hacked the pattern a bit but the result is still adorable.

Just finished up a pair of socks for myself! The yarn for these came from the sweater I knit for bringing my daughter home from the hospital. Once she outgrew it I wanted to reknit it into something I could wear myself.

Picking up another knitter’s legacy again. ❤️ This time: using the stash of a mother who has passed on to create some heirlooms for her daughter.
