Punk Rock Unicorn - HKAL 2024 Dyer Spotlight

With the Hiberknitalong season just around the corner, we couldn’t resist asking Dea from Punk Rock Unicorn all about her favourite winter pastimes. Her responses are packed with warmth, cheer, and a splash of colour that’s bound to inspire your seasonal knits!

For Dea, winter is all about brisk walks through chilly woods, followed by fireside evenings with a knitting project in hand. There’s something magical about the crackle of the fireplace and the rhythm of knitting needles that makes winter feel complete. Her go-to project? Sweaters, of course! Toasty layers are a must for staying snug and stylish all season long.

While the winter skies may be grey, Dea’s colour palette is as bright as ever! She keeps things vibrant and bold, choosing joyful shades to boost the mood on even the cloudiest of days. Each pop of colour adds a little sunshine to every project, creating a cheerful contrast to winter’s more subdued tones.

And when it’s time to warm up, Dea’s favourite winter drink is a spicy twist on a classic: chilli honey oat milk! It’s the perfect partner for a hand-knit sweater and a cosy spot by the fire.

We hope you’re as inspired as we are by Dea’s bold and cosy winter rituals. You can pick up an electric Punk Rock Unicorn HKAL kit November 9th at 16:00 Amsterdam time— see what time that is for you here.
