Wrap up in this cushy shawl and enjoy all the cooler weather has to offer. Brazos Valley is generously sized and made out of dreamy baby alpaca for maximum comfort and warmth. Whether you are cuddling up next to the fire or in need of something snug for a hay ride, the Brazos Valley Shawl will do the job.
Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
This pattern helps showcase all those fabulous multi-color yarns you have in your stash. Worked in the round on dpns. Knit in a silk/merino blend, these fingerless mitts are like a hug for your hands.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
When my brother’s friend asked for a “sweet beanie” to wear while he worked, I quickly got out my needles and yarn. Thus, I designed this hat for wandering around the winter beauty in Yosemite National Park. The design features a twisted rib brim and slipped stitches worked as a cable motif.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
A simple, yet stylish, winter hat. Brim is worked flat, then hat is joined into the round.
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
Designed for the Socks Revived Contest hosted by Elinor of Exercise Before Knitting.
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
I knit these socks for my father in law after a flurry of post Thanksgiving knitting. Just like the shopping event, they worked up quickly and make a great gift.
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
A swirling slip-stitch pattern, designed to work with hand-painted yarns, creates lots of visual interest all by itself. Dropped yarn over’s give length to the slipped stitches so the pattern doesn’t pull in.
Knitting: Soakers
Quick, chunky diaper cover. Best used as a photo prop, but it can be used as an actual diaper cover. Use a snug fitting diaper to ensure that leaks are minimized.
