The Summer Sweater KAL is here!

June 3, 2015June 4, 2015 by Lauren

Hello, lovely knitters! Lauren here. Summer sweaters and I have a problem. As you may remember from last year, I never quite nailed down the perfect summer sweater. I knit a linen tank, but it’s just a touch too long to feel right. As a result, I don’t wear it often. I…

Where did January go? (a little giveaway!)

January 30, 2015February 2, 2015 by Lauren

January hit us hard here at Amy Herzog Designs! After we got back from TNNA, I came down with a killer cold that laid me out for nearly a week. I could barely knit, which is the worst kind of sick. And just a few days later, my fiancé and…

December 8, 2014 by Amy

I’m writing this in the midst of our very first “AHD Summit”, which is our fancy way of saying that this usually bi-coastal company is working together for a whole week. It’s been pretty glorious, I gotta say! And in between working like crazy on lots of sweater-related goodness, the…

November 16, 2014 by Amy

Today, a new phase of our “Year of Sweaters” opens: Holiday season is here, and for many of us gift-knitting season is as also upon us. So for this part of our “Year of Sweaters KAL”, we wanted to take a close look at, and celebrate, sweaters as gifts. Almost…

Fall Festival KAL: We’re Almost There!

November 13, 2014 by Lauren

It’s been nearly three months since we launched our Fall Festival Knitalong! And we’ve knit many sweaters in the meantime. We’re excited to see yours, and draw for a few fun prizes, after the KAL ends on Saturday! Jackie’s been busy growing a human, and that means worn-open cardigans are…

October 10, 2014October 10, 2014 by Lauren

Now that I’ve been back from the Retreat for a week, I’ve settled in enough to tell you about all the knitting I’ve been up to for the Fall Festival KAL. I promised pictures of my Peabody Pullover after the retreat, and boy oh boy, did Amy deliver. I’m lucky to…
