Here are some creative ideas and knitting inspiration using Azun and Peira Worsted yarns, Pyrenean wool for knitting. And you'll see that, even though it's a slightly thick yarn, you can knit beautiful summer jackets in no time! Characteristics of Azun and Peira Worsted yarns Azun and Peira yarns are made from 100% wool from the Pyrenees , carefully selected, harvested and sorted by hand in the Val d'Azun and processed at the traditional spinning mill in Niaux. It is a blend of wool from from lourdaises and tarasconnaises ewes, two local sheep breeds. Azun yarn is available in its beautiful natural ecru colour , as well as in a range of colours obtained by vegetable dyeing and without alum mordant , thanks to the expertise of the Atelier Myrobolan in Felletin, Creuse. Peira yarn is available in its natural mottled grey colour , obtained by blending unbleached and black wool. Yarns entirely made in France and traceable ! Azun (3 strands, 193 m / 100 g) and Peira (3 strands, 183 m / 100 g) yarns are available as 100 g skeins, 50 g balls in several colours, or as cones per kg in natural colour. They are knitted with 4 - 5 mm needles (a good yarn idea for beginners) and can be knitted together! Sample after blocking (stockinette) with   Azun   on 10x10 cm 18 stitches * 28 rows with 4 mm needles 17 stitches * 25 rows with 5 mm needles Sample after blocking (stockinette) with   Peira   on 10x10 cm 18 mailles * 28 rangs avec aiguilles 4 mm 17 mailles * 26 rangs avec aiguilles 5 mm Azun and Peira yarns are authentic : they have a dry feel , roundness and fullness , but they don't sting ! They reflect the local terroir and pay homage to the ewes that graze in the meadows and mountain pastures. Here are some knitting ideas to create a sustainable wardrobe using natural wool from the Pyrenees :) Happy knitting! With 1 skein, I knit a hat! Introducing the Azun goes to Berlin beanie, created in collaboration with Alice im wolleland ! The design stands out for its central band, which elegantly marks the tapers, and its folded ribbed brim to keep the ears nice and warm. This project is not only quick and easy to make, but also very practical for winter. A single 100 g skein is all you need to make this cosy hat, which is sure to become a winter wardrobe staple. I knit a shawl or a turtleneck with 2 skeins! An example of a pattern that can be knitted with any amount of wool is PetiteKnit's Sophie shawl . Simply weigh out the amount of wool you have and use half of it for each part of the pattern. I knitted the Sophie shawl with 2 skeins in 2 different colours for a two-tone effect, which makes a big fluffy scarf perfect for winter. Not a big fan of scarves? A turtleneck is a great alternative! A warm turtleneck with your back and shoulders covered is so practical! I knitted the Terrazzo neck from PetiteKnit with my new Peira Worsted yarn, in single thread (in the pattern, it says to double it with a mohair thread, but the Peira thread is more than enough on its own :). ). https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sophie-shawl-2 https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/terrazzo-neck With 3 skeins or more, I can knit a jacket or a sweater! Here are two beautiful designs from Rosa Pomar , the Burgos vest with buttons, and the Capital V vest with plunging collar. I really like the idea of these two sleeveless jackets, which can be worn in the summer over a short- or long-sleeved tee, a shirt, a dress, etc. I love the plunging collar on the Capital V with the double-knit detail at the bottom, and the button detail on the Burgos is also very pretty. The loose fit of these jackets makes them really comfortable. I knitted these two vests with Azun Worsted yarn in rhubarb yellow for the Burgos and oak beige for the Capital V, a natural shade that's easy to match! As well as being a quick and easy project to knit, I used less than 2.5 skeins for each model, in sizes 2 (Burgos) and 3 (Capital V). And good news, you can even knit a headband with less than 50g of yarn leftovers! I'd also like to introduce you to Rosa Pomar's Pelica vest , a shepherd's jacket in moss stitch with an i-cord finish (which, by the way, goes perfectly with the #sophieshawl :) ). I knitted size 3 in the natural ecru colour, for an even more authentic look. In total, I needed 350g of wool (not including the swatch). I love the loose, very comfortable fit, another jacket you can wear all the time. The added bonus is the pretty buttons, which I chose in the forest green colour from Atelier Brunette . https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/burgos https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/capital-v-2 https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pelica Recently, Orlane Sucche from Tête Bêche Knitwear created a beautiful design using my Azun yarns: the stunning Azuni Sweater !

Here are some creative ideas and knitting inspiration using Azun and Peira Sport yarns, Pyrenean wool for knitting, whether with a single skein or several! Characteristics of Azun and Peira Sport yarns Azun  and Peira yarns are made from 100% wool from the Pyrenees , carefully selected, harvested and sorted by hand  in the Val d'Azun and processed at the traditional spinning mill  in Niaux. It is a blend of wool from from lourdaises  and tarasconnaises  ewes, two local sheep breeds. Azun yarn is available in its beautiful natural ecru colour , as well as in a range of colours obtained by vegetable dyeing  and without alum mordant , thanks to the expertise of the Atelier Myrobolan in Felletin, Creuse. Peira  yarn is available in its natural mottled grey colour , obtained by blending unbleached and black wool. Yarns entirely made in France and traceable ! Azun (2 strands, 290 m / 100 g) and Peira (2 strands, 175 m / 100 g) yarns are available as 100 g skeins, 50 g balls in several colours, or as cones per kg in natural colour. They are knitted with 3 - 3.5 mm needles and can be knitted together! Sample after blocking (stockinette) with Azun , 10x10 cm 23 stitches * 35 rows with 3 mm needles 20 stitches * 33 rows with 3.5 mm needles Sample after blocking (stockinette) with Peira , 10x10 cm 23 stitches * 36 rows with 3 mm needles 22 stitches * 34 rows with 3.5 mm needles Azun  and Peira  yarns are authentic : they have a dry feel , roundness  and fullness , but they don't sting ! They reflect the local terroir  and pay homage to the ewes that graze in the meadows and mountain pastures. Here are some knitting ideas  to create a sustainable wardrobe  using natural wool from the Pyrenees :) Happy knitting! Psssst, something new! Curious to explore all the colors of Azun  and Peira ? You’ll find them in the Palette Pyrénéenne  skein: With 1 skein of sport yarn, I can knit a hat! You only need one skein to knit a hat ! For example, I've knitted the #weekendhat by PetiteKnit in Campêche blue. It's a beanie with a double fold at the edges, so it keeps your ears warm. It fits well and is comfortable to wear. For the knitting accessories, you'll need stitch markers to mark the beginning of the round and the positions of the decreases, 60 cm circular needles for the main part and 80 cm for magic-loop knitting the small diameter of the tip of the hat. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/weekend-hat-5 Or coloured mits with the Pyrenean Palette Skein! Mittens knitted with Pyrenean Palette Skein, based on PetiteKnit's Penny Gloves , slightly adapted. I knit a shawl with 2 skeins! An example of a pattern that can be knitted with any amount of wool is PetiteKnit's #sophieshawl. Simply weigh out the amount of wool you have and use half of it for each part of the pattern. I knitted the #sophieshawl myself with Azun Worsted yarn (the other yarn in the Azun range), which makes a big, fluffy scarf that's perfect for winter, but it's perfectly possible to knit it with Azun Sport yarn, for a finer finish. With 4 skeins or more, I can knit a jumper! It's springtime! It's time to move away from chunky winter jumpers and into lighter, mid-season styles that will keep us warm on chilly mornings. Here, for example, are two gorgeous patterns by Orlane Sucche (@tête_bêche on Instagram) that I knitted recently to experiment with textures using yarns from the Azun Sport range. Neve is knitted in acacia pink and Ilha in natural ecru. The roundness of the yarn makes the twists stand out beautifully. I used around 3.5 skeins for each model (size 2 for the Ilha and size 3 for the Neve). A little tip just for you! As my sample didn't match exactly in number of rows (33 rows for 10 cm with Azun compared to 30 rows in the Neve model, using 3.5 mm needles), I added a few rows of stockinette after the raglan increases, before separating the sleeves from the body. This way you get the right length of yoke! A trick I also used for the Ilha model.

You’ve probably noticed it already: after finishing a knitting project, there are almost always leftover bits of yarn. This is especially true with colorwork, since yoke motifs usually require only small amounts of each color. So, what can you do with all those yarn scraps? Good news: there are plenty of options! There are so many small knitting projects that are perfect for using up these precious leftovers. A headband, for example, is a classic must-have to keep your ears warm. With less than 50 g of Worsted-weight yarn, you can easily knit a cute headband with a twisted knot on the front. You can also try making crochet jewelry, such as yarn earrings—I’m sharing an example in the photo below. Another great accessory for using up small amounts of yarn: mitts and socks in Sport-weight yarn. These little projects are perfect for making the most of your leftovers, especially if you love adding stripes or colorful motifs. And if you have a bit more yardage, a hat is always a great option: quick to knit, essential for winter, and always a joy to gift—or to keep for yourself! Leftover colors work beautifully for stripes and patterns. With 100 g of Sport-weight yarn, you can knit a lovely hat, such as the Weekend Hat by PetiteKnit . A colorful version would look amazing! And if you have some Worsted yarn lying around, it’s the perfect excuse to cast on the Azun goes to Berlin hat ! I’m also thinking about knitting a sweater made entirely from coordinating leftovers. That project will have to wait until I’ve gathered the right mix of colors… so not just yet :) In the end, every scrap of yarn can turn into a charming little creation - it just takes a bit of imagination… and our needles! Fanny Founder of Knitty and Woolly Psssst, something new! Curious to explore all the colors of Azun  and Peira ? You’ll find them in the Palette Pyrénéenne  skein:

Harvested and sorted by hand in the Hautes-Pyrenees Knitty and Woolly harvests the wool in the Val d'Azun, where she grew up, then sorts it entirely by hand before it goes to the spinning mill.
