Join me for a Taylor Swift inspired MKAL of epic proportions! Introducing, the the Eras MKAL a collaboration between myself and Arkaik Fibres. This MKAL will take place throughout 2024 with new releases each month. Read on for more details:

This is the National Park Hats Collection 1 for 2020. The individual patterns are available for purchase, or get them all as part of this e-book collection! When the final pattern is released in December, E-book Collection subscribers will receive the option to download them all in one beautiful E-book file.

This is the 2nd National Park Hats collection from Kristen in Stitches. Pre-orders are being accepted now! The collection features a new National Park Hat Design each month with a mid-month pattern and yarn release. Kits using hand-dyed yarns by Kristen in Stitches will be released each month in 2021 to accompany each of these designs. When purchased before the first pattern release, an info-sheet will be available to download with a sneak peek at the parks being featured in 2021.

This is the National Park Hats Collection 3 and will contain a total of 6 new National Park hat patterns.

The Tasty Tosh Collection began in March of 2015 in collaboration with Jimmy Beans Wool and Marinade Designs. As of January 2015, the entire collection of 10 patterns is now available as an E-book collection. Each pattern is available within the e-book to download separately at one low bundled price! If you like this collection, be sure to check out the Toshstrology Collection in 2016! Happy knitting!

The Toshstrology Collection is in collaboration with Jimmy Beans Wool’s Limited Edition Tosh Collection for 2016! (Check out last year’s Tasty Tosh Collection to see what kinds of fun could be in store!) The Aquarius Hat is the first of 12 all-new accessory patterns that will be released to go with this collection. Purchase all 12 patterns as a collection, and receive a new pattern each month all year long! Each pattern is also available a la carte.

This hat was originally designed for a Debbie Bliss Gift Box we did at Jimmy Beans to look like a snowman for a holiday collection. The yarn and needles in the box resulted in this soft, cozy, and fluffy hat!

I designed these mitts 2013 while working for Jimmy Beans Wool. I’ve made several different pairs of these mitts in the years since and each time I’ve adapted the pattern a bit to suit my liking. I personally love a pair of fingerless mitts in the winter. I like to have use of my fingers for gripping, but need just that little bit of extra warm...

I designed this hat in 2012 while working for Jimmy Beans Wool. I recently received the rights to this design back and when I knew we would be kicking our Taylor Swift MKAL with the Lover Era, I figured it was the perfect opportunity to redo this design as the Lover Era Heart hat. I’ve adjusted the pattern to work for the slightly heavier weigh...

The final hat in the National Park Hats series is Kings Canyon! This hat is another simple yet interesting to knit design. A 4 row pattern repeat makes for easy memorization with enough interest to keep you going. Knit in a bulky weight yarn and big needles with a seamless and clever (if I do say so myself) decrease that is barely noticeable, t...

This month’s hat is inspired by the one and only Mammoth Cave National Park. While the cave itself is the main feature of the park, I couldn’t help but create a color inspired by the lush green landscape of the park’s exterior surroundings, including Green River. For this month’s hat, I wanted to keep it super simple. I love a good classic stoc...

Yarn to knit the North Cascades National Park Hat is available here.

This month’s hat is inspired by Everglades National Park in Florida. Everglades is a stocking style cap in a broken rib stitch that blends colors to create a sunset effect. I was inspired by the beautiful images i found online of sunsets in Everglades National Park and thus created this bright and fun blended color hat. Everglades is on my buck...

This month’s hat is inspired by Olympic National Park in Washington state.
