This collection features cable patterns that remind me of the shapes of the sea weeds on the Bay of Fundy, and you’ll find variations of them on each of the pieces. The Ribbon Weed throw and Rock Weed pillow have large cables knit in super-bulky yarn for a dramatic effect. The cables on the Sea Oak pillow are more understated, while the Dulse pillow is a celebration of cables.

Are you going somewhere cold? Do you know what you’re going to pack? Or do you live somewhere cold? Then you know the need for those everyday items to keep you warm when the temperatures dip.

This is the perfect wrap for those spring days and summer evenings when you need just a little bit of something extra.

This shawl is named after the park near my house. There is a group of trees that line the main path, and they stand straight and tall as they have done for centuries. The lines of slipped stitches in this shawl remind me of those trees standing side by side.

This hat is my homage to gorgeous Fair Isle jumpers, using traditional stranded colourwork motifs. For my sample I’ve also chosen colours that remind me of Scotland - the blues of the sea, green countryside, yellow wildflowers, white clouds, and red - well, red is a nice contrast!

I just love the the look of this star stitch, and having it swirl up around a hat like this just seemed like the right thing to do. Paired with a simple lace that leans in the opposite direction, it strikes a lovely balance. And the icing on top is the way the two patterns spiral into the crown to finish it off.

These mitts incorporate the same star stitch and lace patterns as the Stars and Lace Hat, but in different way. The lace is featured on the back of the hands, while the star stitch makes up the thumb gusset. These are a very quick knit, and will be just right for those first chilly days of fall, or mid-winter if you’re lucky enough to live some...

These fun toppers will jazz up your favourite pair of boots. They are worked with simple stripes and slipped stitches, only ever working with one strand per round. They can be worn either inside or outside the boot.

Note: It seems that other knitters are not able to get as many rows out of their MC as I did. When starting the project, keep in mind that everyone knits differently, and different styles of knitting will take up different amounts of yarn, even if gauges match. The pattern is written such that it does not matter where you end, but your bottom t...

These are fun, cozy fingerless mitts to keep you warm on those first cold days of the year. They knit up in a hurry in this thick, gorgeous yarn, so when the forecast becomes foreboding, you can still get them done in time.

Jodi’s Sweater is a layering piece that’s stylish enough to make a statement, yet cozy enough to be your go-to pullover for lounging around the house. The knitting is straight-forward, but the construction gives it the added twist - literally!

This is a fun stripy, ziggy zaggy toque in four sizes from children to adults. With alternating stripes and colourwork, this is a great first project for stranded knitting. You’ll only ever work 2 colours at a time and for a maximum of 10 rows at a time. The in-betweens are simple stripes.

Note: This pattern is also available as part of the Fundy Tides Collection.

These stranded mittens pay homage to the sunny skies and gorgeous, tall mountains of Alberta.

This top-down triangular shawlette is my tribute to Alberta, Canada. The central spine is a simple cable pattern that reminds me of the wheat that grows aplenty here. The lace pattern that makes up the body of the shawl represents the beautiful snow-capped Rocky Mountains, while the softly curving edges are my interpretation of our sparkling, e...

I knit this hat and tried out this technique because I simply can’t get enough colour. Knitting with two strands is fun, but I really wanted another colour in there, so I challenged myself to add another. It can be a little tricky and fiddly to hold all 3 strands at once but you can eventually find a rhythm and the result is quite beautiful and...

Siffleur is worked in the round from the bottom to the armholes. The sleeves are knit separately to the armholes then joined to the body. The yoke is worked seamlessly.

The Pippa Toque is a cute little hat to keep heads and ears toasty and warm on cold winter days. The close stitches and stranded colour work make this a nice thick fabric for great insulation.

Kensington Tweed is a double-breasted piece with a classic look. It can be worn to the office with a blouse and dress pants, or dressed-down with a pair of jeans and boots. This is the kind of jacket that will be a closet staple.

My boy likes a lot of colour, and would be quite happy to wear the whole rainbow all the time. This is my toned-down version of his vision, lots of colour but not so much that your eyes cross.

The Beverly Beach shirt is knit in one piece as a rectangle, starting at the bottom front edge and ending with the bottom back edge. Garter stitch button bands are knit along both sides as you go, with buttonholes along the front and buttons along the back. The buttons join the front to the back, making this a seamless knit.

Chum’s Pullover is a stylish yet casual men’s sweater featuring a triangular-shaped placket and chunky buttons. The placket adds a touch of interest and style to the piece that is manly enough for even the toughest of men. It is knit in bulky yarn, making relatively short work of a man-sized garment. The piece would look great with a pair of je...

Despite my best efforts, my little girl is as girly as they come. When asked what she wanted on her hat the answer was definitively “Hearts, with a butterfly on top.” Well, my girl, ask and ye shall receive. I present you with the girliest hat ever.

Paisley is so hot right now. Really. I kept seeing all these beautiful paisley prints in shop windows and on fashionable bodies and I thought - “Why couldn’t I knit me some paisley somethings?” And then I thought - “Mittens, those somethings should be mittens!” And that’s that. I designed some paisley mittens.

I grew up in an old house with cedar shakes. When I was a teenager those shakes needed to be replaced. My dad, being a carpenter, took on the job himself, and enlisted the rest of the family to help. Imagine what the people driving by thought when they saw my sister, mom and me up on scaffolding, plane and hammer in hand, re-shingling our two-s...

The inspiration for this piece is my friend Helen. She is a very stylish woman who always wears skirts and heels, even if it’s to take her two dogs and 3 year-old son to the park. Helen the lady is classy, sexy and curvy. Helen the skirt is, too. It’s the kind of skirt that would look great worn in the office with a fitted blouse, or to the far...

The Eleanor Romper is a darling little one-piece outfit for babies. Worked with a seamless top-down raglan construction, the romper features a simple but elegant cable pattern running down the sleeves as well as the sides, all the way down to the ankles. The design is suitable for boys or girls so it can be a gender-neutral baby gift or made mo...

The James Cowl is a cozy neck warmer featuring stranded colourwork, knit in the round. It is suitable for boys and girls, men or women, young or old. While this is a great project for first time steekers, instructions are also given for an unsteeked version that is simply knit in the round.

I can’t help but think that cashmere feels the need to be touched just as much as we feel the need to touch it. What better place to have it rest than around your neck, giving you a warm hug on blustery days. This beautiful variegated yarn calls for a simple stitch pattern so the colours can be the star of the show. Add a couple of chunky butto...

This pattern came from a desire for a simple, top-down hoodie with clean lines for easy toddler wear. In order to keep the fabric sleek, ribbing, garter and seed stitch have given way to hemmed edges. To keep the look of a basic hoodie this pattern features an optional zipper closure and front pockets. The decorative ribbon draw-string is not p...

Sometimes you want to look like you’re wearing a nice chunky sock, but you really don’t want to be wearing a nice chunky sock. Sometimes you want to knit a sock but not have to turn a heel or graft a toe. With this pattern you can cheat and just knit the stylish and easy part! This is a very quick pattern, great for learning cables!
