Knitting: Sachet
Quick little lace-topped lavender sachets, knit in one piece in the round, with barely any finishing. Suitable for a small last-minute gift, and to use up small amounts of left-over lace-weight yarn.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Umbel is a flat-knit square shawl, worked in a beautiful textured Estonian lace stitch. It is designed to stay on the shoulders, drape beautifully and keep you warm when there’s a chill in the air. Instructions are provided for altering the size of the shawl, and it’s possible for more advanced knitters to work this as a triangular shawl using ...
Knitting: Legwarmers
Sweet lacy legwarmers for rambling or lolling like a rose. Can be worn with the plain ribbing or the lace foremost, for different looks. Easy to memorise lace stitch, suitable for beginners. Whip up a pair over the weekend.

Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Cornflower is a spring/autumn hat knit in an interesting stitch pattern of eyelets and elongated stitches that’s actually very simple to work (watch the videos to see for yourself). It will keep your hair out of your eyes on blustery days, and thanks to the braided tie, it’ll stay on your head too!
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap, Scarf
This is a Shawlette version of the Parasol Stole, with a single border and a gentle curve formed by the decreases that flow into the ribbing. A very quick & satisfying weekend knit.
Knitting: Wristlet
This is a great beginner project because it’s made up of 3 rectangles. Depending on which closure you choose, you can get away with only knowing how to knit & purl! You can also make all the errors of a novice knitter - wonky cast ons & cast offs, wobbly stitches, etc. - and you can hide them (& your ends) away in the seams. :)
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap, Scarf
Parasol is a very versatile pattern that can be knit in DK or lace-weight yarn. The DK version is perfect for cool spring days, while the lace-weight, knit in cotton or silk, is best suited to shading your shoulders when the sun is shining (rather like an actual parasol, in fact!).
Knitting: Cup / Mug
This quick, easy pattern makes the best winter gift! Knit up lots for stocking fillers, or knock up a few for unexpected visitors. You can easily finish one in an evening.
Knitting: Hot Water Bottle
This hot water bottle cover has a convenient pocket to keep your hands toasty. Simple cables wind up both the back and front, and end in an unfussy fold-over top. Tweed yarn gives it a rustic and masculine look, but the pattern would work just as well in a solid colour aran yarn, as a gift for a lady. This is a quick and easy knit that is genui...
Knitting: Vest, Sleeveless Top
Houses is an elegant slipover, perfect for layering in both winter and summer. It is knit in 4 ply yarn, allowing it to drape beautifully, and the boxy silhouette and neckline make it flattering to most figures. The pattern is 9 pages long, includes photographs and both written and charted instructions, and is laid out with great care to readab...
Knitting: Coaster
WARNING:
Knitting: Food Cozy
This is a very simple pattern, and is great fun for both adults and children. You’ll have a whole batch before you know it! The cosies work great on both regular and chocolate eggs, and make great gifts.
