Knitting: Pullover, Tee
Simplice is a simple top that’s a breeze to knit and is versatile enough to go from garden to gala. It is constructed seamlessly from the top down with a round yoke, just a bit of shaping through the bodice, and a flattering peplum. What distinguishes this design from every other sweater tee in your closet is a row of eyelet increases at the wa...
Knitting: Skirt
This simple skirt is worked in the round from the top down. It is fitted through the waist to upper hips and has positive ease through the hips for ease of movement. Shaping is worked as you go as are the vines and leaves that encircle the body of the skirt. The diagonal vines and uncluttered A-line shaping of this skirt give the illusion of mo...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Oleada is a simple rectangular shawl inspired by the waves of the sea. It is designed to be worn in a variety of ways. Wrapped around the shoulders like a traditional stole, or buttoned in several different configurations — at the sides to form a shrug, in front as a cape, or up the front and back to be worn as a vest.
Knitting: Knee-highs
Rambla is named for a wide promenade that hugs the shore in Montevideo, Uraguay (the home of Malabrigo Yarns).

This shawl can be knit with Malabrigo Silky M...
Knitting: Cowl
Coralino is a soft layering piece, worked in the round in reverse stockinette stitch. It is perfect for pairing with winter coats and sweaters and is light enough to be worn with summer dresses on cool evenings.
Knitting: Pullover
Marea is a simple tunic worked in the round from bottom up. Lace detailing on the center front and sleeves adds a bit of easy elegance without being fussy. The A-line shaping of this piece makes it flattering to all figure types.
Knitting: Mittens
These mitts offer a playful way to chase winter’s chill. They are designed to be ambidextrous— with the face on the palm or on the back of the hand. They are made in the round from cuff to fingertips. The paws are made from picked up stitches and are worked from the kitten body. Button eyes and embroidered nose and whiskers give each of these k...
