My father’s family homesteaded an area that they called Summit Point. As a child I visited the area several times to gather wood, help clear a new area for the wheat field to expand, to swim in the ponds and picnic with my grandparents. The place is covered in beautiful red soil wheat fields, red cedar trees, pinyon pines, elk, deer, coyotes, r...

Hugs and Kisses with hearts all over. This is a fun sock pattern with simple color changes using multi-colored yarn and a solid colored yarn. Best for intermediate and up knitters.

This sock design was created with St. Valentine’s legend in mind. The top of the leg contains a heart with a cross in the center followed by a lacey heart design down the leg. The cuff has a picot cast on that is challenging and fun. This pattern is for intermediate to experienced knitters, or a knitter that isn’t afraid to try some new techniq...

The holidays are just around the corner and so is the snow!! Now is a great time to get going on something festive and warm to show off with all the relatives coming over or at the ski lodge.

The holiday season is just around the corner and now is the time to start planning those handknit items you want to give this year.

I wanted something warm and cozy to wear while watching tv at night and designed these. I figure if the Camel that the yarn comes from can stay warm at night in the Gobi Desert then surely my feet can stay warm wearing the same fiber :)

These socks are HOT HOT HOT!! Firecracker explodes with a 12 stitch pattern repeat that is easily memorized making this a quick moving, fun sock to knit up.

Krotasokkar is a traditional Norwegian stocking. The design is a pattern of twisted and traveling stitches, purls, and tiny cable-like stitches. I designed the sock to be worked toe up, but it can easily be altered and worked cuff down.

These socks are all about Spring! Bright colors and a lacey design. I used leftover amounts of sock yarn, something I am sure we all have plenty of in our stashes, to create this little burst of sunshine.

Lacy diamond pattern with a seed stitch detail separating each lace panel. The sock starts with a picot cuff--one of my favorites since there is no k1, p1, stuff going on just row after row of stst. The leg can be worked as many pattern repeats as desired. The heel is nothing fancy, but simple and straight forward. The lace/seed stitch design c...

Lovey, lacey heart, knee length stockings. This pattern works up quickly and the results are stunning. Would make a great bridal shower gift!!!

Angora makes these socks extra warm and sinfully soft. I used an angora blend for the “snow” and a great merino/alpaca/linen blend for the night sky, both of which are available for sale in my etsy store: twistedharefiberart.etsy.com

This pattern may look difficult, but it really isn’t. It knits up quickly with line by line pattern instructions.

Autumn is such a beautiful time of the year. Mother Nature paints the forest with the most beautiful, vibrant colors available.

Super fun! Super fast! You can actually make this in only a couple of hours. Start it in the morning and wear it that afternoon. The entire hat literally has only 28 rows!

This is a great pattern for a beginner in socks. There is a simple stitch detail that follows a twisted rib cuff and an inserted heel. The worsted weight yarn means that the socks will work up quickly for instant gratification.

This pattern is written so that the sock can be made with worsted, DK, or fingering weight yarn. There is a leaf detail on the heel portion with a small amount of embroidery on it. Fun and easy pattern.

The sock has the red and white throughout, except the toe and heel, so there is actually a double layer for extra warmth. I love incorporating double braids into everthing--hats, socks, sweaters, blankets, etc. I just can’t get enough. It is such an ornate look. It looks really hard, but it’s not! The pattern calls for an “inserted heel”, but a...

This is a simple color work sock. It works up very quickly and is a nice ski boot sock.

This is a great sock for the outdoor enthusiast on your Christmas list!
