Hello fiber friends!


For any of you who are watching the Game of Wool (special thanks to VPNs and YouTube for those of us outside of the UK!) and want to know what knits (and crochet) pieces the contestants are wearing in each episode, I'm scouring the internet so you don't have to!


For those I couldn't find the exact pattern, I've included links to similar patterns in case you want to cast on another project:

Ailsa wore a cute Maple Scarf, pattern by SusanneS-vV. It's a great beginner knit and is available for free on Ravelry!

Holger wore a beautiful aran knit sweater from a vintage book, The Complete Book of Traditional Aran Knitting by Shelagh Hollingworth, which is out of print. If you want to find this pattern, it is "Pattern 1" from the book and a quick Google search has it listed on a couple of second hand sites!

Issac wore his sheep badge! But no other hand knits this episode.

Lydia did us a solid and shared the pattern on her Instagram again so I didn't have to go down the Ravelry rabbit hole! She wore The Kip Sweater by Rebecca Clow.

I'm dubbing Simon our Comfort King! Another cozy hoodie for this episode.
