The following items were knit from the same skein of JulieSpins Silky (50/50 superwash merino silk blend; 435 yds/100g) in the Cherry Blossom colorway ~ mittens, scarf, hat, pullover sweater.

Note: Loosely cast on the initial stitches as this will be a “finished” edge.

This cardigan fits American Girl Dolls as well as most 18” dolls.

My Cup of Tea socks are worked top down on dpn’s. Inspiration for these socks came from the “crocuses” pattern (p. 60) The Stitch Collection Book 5/Specialty Stitches by Debbie O’Neill.

Karkom Wristwarmers are worked flat, blocked to size and made up with a traditional mattress stitch seam on the underside. The pattern includes an extra 2 stitch allowance on either side to provide a neatly finished seam.

These are quick and easy to make. I like to use them to embellish a card for a baby shower along with a verse (Psalm 139:13-14 ESV.) They can easily be made into a pin or brooch, added to a name tag, a gift tag, a favor, baby announcements, or used to embellish scrapbooking pages.

I’ve adapted the lace pattern in the snowdrop lace scarf to a matching hat. It has a garter edge, three staggered lace repeats and a stockinette finish.
