Pattern Notes

Inspired by the beautiful landscape of Kauai, the Memories of Aloha knitting needle holder reflects the island’s rich beauty. The cables are reminiscent of the cascading waterfalls along Kauai’s hillsides and the lace sections emulate the crashing waves along the seashore.

The holes from the eyelets are plentiful and placed throughout the design to provide you with the ability to store several knitting needles. Whether you’re a seasoned knitter seeking a quick project or an adventurous beginner eager to explore new techniques, this pattern guides you through each section with clear instructions.

This is the perfect project to use some stash or a special souvenir skein of yarn. Look for a DK weight wool, possibly with some texture. Choose a solid or tonal yarn to show off the highly textured pattern of the stitches.

Select an heirloom knitting needle that was used by your grandmother, a piece of driftwood from a special beach, or a simple dowel to support your wall hanging for a personal touch.

Pattern includes written and charted instructions.
