Welcome, knitter to our 2020 Moebius pattern club! Puddles and I have several fun Moebius designs for each season combined into this eBook, which will be updated with new releases periodically throughout the year.
The special spin on these infinity loops is “double”! From applying double knitting to a moebius, to a double treatment of the yarn, to knitting a moebius that fits multiple item categories, each design features something that doubles you over.
First up, our January 2020 release, Love Mobius, a love letter from a Moebius to double knitting! Using a very fun double stranded technique, after the cast on, it works up just like any other double knitting project. Why double knitting? Have you heard of knitters who dread the wrong side showing? I admit I’m one. As much as I love Mobius, that underbelly I can’t abide. Let’s see if I conquer my aversion while you conquer this first cast on!
Second up, String Theory Moebius. Have you got the world on a string? When life throws an unexpected twist and you just need to knit something brainless, cast on String Theory Moebius. Philosophically deep, in theory only, this easy-as-an-I-cord design starts with just that. Pop your skein in a bag and face the challenges while knitting! Once your I-cord is complete, a touch of infinity appears with the moebius. Fun to knit; great to wear!
Third up, Beach Bum. The beach is calling, but so is your yarn. What’s a knitter to do when sand and stitches both beckon you? Combine the two while you soak up the sun! Beach Bum cover up adds beauty to function whether wearing it as a short dress or side split skirt. Open shell lace graces the bottom while a clever moebius covers up top. The multiple tying options ensure it stays right where you want it while catching sun rays or splashing in the waves.
Fourth up, Autumn Come. Autumn Come mingles the last days of summer with thoughts of cold evenings to come. A moebius cast on joins forces with brioche to create a uniquely intriguing mirrored abstract leaf and branch pattern. Adventurous knitters will delight in the stitch interest created by combining these techniques. Use bright colors to hold fast to the last vestiges of summer or deep tones to welcome Autumn with your stitches.
Fifth up, bonus, Moebius Fun! Adventure and excitement are met in this short knitting commitment piece. Matching Love Moebius, Moebius Fun applies true moebius knitting to a headband! Fun to knit and to wear with the thick double knitted fabric that keeps the snowy day chill at bay.
This fun little design will take you on a moebius roller coaster! Complete with two construction methods – a brainteaser for those brave hearts ready to have their stitches taken for a spin and a more standard construction that breaks it down into more recognizable stages. Which will you choose?
