Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This is a triangular shawl that uses sequence knitting and has the option of marled knitting as well. Cecelia Campochiaro’s books on both those topics provided some of the inspiration for the pattern.
Knitting: Cowl
This is a fun small project to use as an introduction to assigned pooling or to use up the leftover yarn from another assigned pooling project. It combines two assigned pooling stitches—a bobble stitch (dots) and a double-elongated stitch (squiggles).
Knitting: Poncho
This is a small elegant poncho that’s fun to make and versatile enough to wear all year long. I love shawls too, but as a mom, small ponchos like this are my go-to cozy accessory because they stay put so nicely. They are great for air-conditioned spaces in summer, cool evenings in fall and spring, and as an extra layer of warmth in winter.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
The Metamorphosis Shawl is a big triangular crescent that is large enough to curl up in but elegant enough to wear anywhere. I designed it with enough stitch variation to be interesting to knit and really lovely to wear, but there’s nothing too difficult for an advanced beginner here.
Knitting: Poncho
I love to sit by the pool and knit while my family enjoys the water. I named this ponchette with that in mind, but there’s also a double meaning because I created this pattern to work beautifully with an assigned pooling colorway.
Knitting: Cowl
The Diamond Twist Cowl works equally well with a single skein of sock-weight yarn, with two alternating colorways, or with a set of eight 20 gram mini skeins. It’s a great pattern for conversational knitting or knitting while watching a movie.
