Century. Its a nod to her dual personality, a modern-
day June Cleaver who has a full-time job and certainly
never bothers to wear pearls while vacuuming.
The blog has served as both a way for her West
Coast family to keep track of her Maine exploits as
well as a place to self-publish knitting patterns. In
addition to www.mscleaver.com, Leah has been
building a reputation as a knitting designer to watch
through Twist Collective, Quince & Co., and now her
fi rst featured profi le in Knitscene.
Leahs Knitscene collection is a distillation of her
environment and sensibility. Looking for inspiration
for this collection, Leah started thinking about being
out in the Maine woods in the winter and tried to
think of pieces she would want to wear herself. The
cable-panel coat is a design Leah imagines one wear-
ing when walking through a snow-covered field of
birch trees.
A hallmark of each piece is a special, distinctive
detail that sets Leahs designs apart. It can be an
obvious design element, like the large cabled pat-
tern in the coat and the neck bow on her sweater, or
a smaller touch, like the vining cables or three small
buttons on the fi ngerless gloves. The gloves were
inspired by seeing the singer and actress Marketa
Irglova in the movie Once, but not in the expected
way. I was watching the movie, Leah says, and
oh, this is kinda fun! So I just kept going and now she wears fi ngerless gloves in almost every scene,

How to do it
A wrap-and-turn short-row is
worked in two stages. The fi rst stage
involves wrapping the stitch and
turning the work around so you can
work back in the other direction.
The second stage involves hiding
the wrap on a subsequent row.
Here youll hide the wrap by lifting 6
it and working it together with the
wrapped stitch so the fabric will
have a smooth surface.
The methods for working short- Right side wrap-and-turn

Its important to remember that no
wrapped stitches are worked during
the wrap-and-turn stage. This means
when a pattern tells you to knit to X
stitches before the wrap, you dont
count the wrapped stitch.

respectively). This is because were
assuming stockinette stitch for these
examples. Facing the side you are
working, a clockwise wrap has the
working yarn placed at the back of the
work, so when you turn for the next
row, the yarn is placed in front and
you can work a purl stitch straight

wrap has the working yarn placed in
q front of the work, therefore the yarn
will be at the back after turning, and
you can work a knit stitch straight

A Small World Photos by Cirilia Rose
THE KNITTERATI GATHER IN
Iceland
by Cirilia Rose
Designer and style maven Cirilia

Rose and indie sensation Stephen
West meet up with other knitterati
in wool-erific Iceland.
Lets start a commune! It happens anytime knit-
ters are gathered. It starts as a joke between far-flung
friends, but the conversation quickly turns to logistics.
Occasionally well start looking at real estate listings,
usually something by the water. This summer, the magi-
cal commune fi nally materialized, in Iceland, thanks to
a vivacious woman named Ragga Eiriksdottir. Stephen
West, Ragga, and I hosted a small group of passionate
knitters during a tour called Body, Mind, and Lopi.
Ragga has been organizing tours to Iceland since
2010, operating out of a vibrant office on the main
shopping street in Reykjavik. She shares the office with
several local artisans, and inspiring samples abound.
While she usually teaches classes on lopapeysa, the
iconic yoked sweaters made with Icelandic wool, her own
designs veer into some unusual territory, showing the
versatility of the countries distinctive yarns. Tunisian
crochet, unique Japanese fi bers, and vibrant hand-
dyed shades take her designs beyond the realm of the
folksy pullover (though there is plenty of goodness to be
minedthere).
Clockwise from top left: Bound for the Blue Lagoon with
Ysolda Teague and Stephanie Dosen (Tiny Owl Knits).

Raggas tours are just as eclectic and fun. Built around

the diverse interests and talents of the guest instruc-
tors, the range of subjects explored includes beer, music,
yoga, dance, and of course, yarn. My love for Lopitra-
ditional Icelandic wool yarnwasnt instantaneous, Ill
admit. When I fi rst encountered it years ago, I found it
felt a bit like steel wool. It wasnt until I wore it in the
windy, slightly damp Icelandic climate that I came to
understand its charms. By the end of my visit, I was
downrightsmitten.
Our daily excursions often included a stop at Hand-
prjnasamband slands, or the Hand-Knitting Association
of Iceland. With several locations throughout Reykjavik,
these woolly emporiums simultaneously serve as tourist
destinations and a general store for knitters. Squeeze
past machine-knit angora socks and boiled wool coats
to fi nd a towering, no-nonsense display of glorious
Icelandicwool.
The most distinctive put-up is called a plate, or
pltulopi. This unspun airy yarn reveals a lot about your
personal knitting style. I learned that I violently tug yarn
from the ball while knitting at a rapid clip. The pltulopi
pulls apart like cotton candy, but it reattaches like Velcro.
No harm, no foul, and I learned to relax to accommodate
the yarn.
Inspiration was just as pervasive as wool. I felt as
though Id fallen into my favorite fashion blogs (for more
on Icelandic style, see page 96). Artisans and makers
were around every corner, and it seemed that every other
person was wearing something woolly and fabulous.
