Lovely Popover

The Shepherd’s Embrace Cloak is something that has been swirling in my designer brain for a while. I love the look of the knitted locks technique and have been looking into ways to use it more. I love putting a knitted something on and not having to fuss with it. This cloak fits the bill with super quick knitting and an interesting technique to...

A Mother’s Hug is a collaboration with my friend Tabbethia of Long Island Yarn and Farm and the garment of the 3rd annual LIYF and Rainbows KAL. Inspired by a cherished garment from Tabbethia’s late mother, “Mamma Jo“, this layering piece is a tribute to loved ones who are no longer with us. The delicate arrow lace at the bottom represents Tabb...

Mumford Mitts is a wonderful way to use the knitting locks technique to enhance the look of any knitted garment. This technique is very easy to do and creates texture and interest in your plain knitting.

I will be knitting a new sweater with the advent I received this year on my YouTube Channel during Vlogmas. I invite you to join me during the month of December where I will demonstrate the following techniques:

The Sheridan Shawl is the design for the Second Annual LIYF and Rainbows KAL. I designed this shawl with options in mind. Designed to be worn 3 different ways: with the v in the front, with the v in the back or with the v on the side. Each option lets you choose which way the shawl will compliment your body.

The Mimi hat is a very quick to knit hat that keeps your head very warm. I named it the Mimi hat after my niece Madeleine. Mimi is a high school senior girls soccer goalie and after putting the Pom Pom on my newly designed hat, we headed off to her state championship. It was a nail biter game and came down to penalty shots… Mimi came through sa...

Audrey is a classic sweater with an updated construction and a spectacular cable focal neckline. I just love when a happy mistake turns into a beautiful design! My initial thought was that the cable neck would lay flat… but I was so excited when I joined the cable together and put it over my head. I instantly thought of Audrey Hepburn and my br...

Levitating Cables…or Not!

The Sherwood Sweater has some of my most favorite design elements: a flattering V-neck, modified drop shoulders and some fun color work on the hem. This sweater is knit from the bottom up, seamed at the shoulders and the sleeves are picked up around the armhole and knit down to the cuff. Beginner knitters are free to omit the color work chart a...

The hat is named after my niece Emily who is an RN on the cardiac floor. The pretty brim is an easy slip stitch pattern that reminds me of an ekg. This pattern is written in three weights: Aran, Worsted and DK. Whip up a few of these hats and become a Holiday Hat Hero much like our everyday Medical Heroes…. like Emily.

Knit a Rainbow Sweater is a top down raglan sweater that was designed for my 50th Birthday, mimicking my favorite comfy sweatshirt. The yarn color was designed for me by Cake Wool Company and reminds me of a rainbow. Rainbows and knitting have a special meaning to me, it’s the last life lesson my mother gave me before she died a year ago. I was...

The Lovely Tee

This shawl was designed for Vogue Knitting Live 2020 in NYC out of the yarn specifically dyed for the event for Do Ewe Knit. The Josie Shawl was named after my Great-great Grandmother Josie Burch.

Swift Scarf is the perfect last minute gift. Knit in beautiful Yana Journeys yarn and oversized needles, your recipient will never know it only took a few hours to create!

The Marin Hat is a quick knit that can be worn either as a traditional hat with a folded brim or leave the brim unfolded for a slouchy look. Made in Loopy Mango merino worsted yarn, it is soft and light and oh so warm! I named the hat Marin after my daughter (the model). After I took the photos for the pattern she didn’t want to give it back, s...

Bay Heaven Cardigan is the result of simple design meets beautiful yarn. I am enamored with House of A La Mode yarns and when thinking of what to design with their sport weight yarn, my thought was: ‘Why over design such a beautiful yarn?’ Bay Heaven is a special place I go to simply be me, it’s a no make-up hair in a braid kind of place. This ...

A Hug For Ewe is a simple boxy cardigan that is made in 3 panels and seamed together. The border is picked up and knitted in the round. I love the easy, flattering style of this sweater, even a beginning knitter can feel confident to cast on. From cool air-conditioned offices to breezy spring evenings, this cardigan will quickly become a wardro...

After making this beautiful wrap, I hand washed to block and then threw it in the dryer with a towel to soften it up… it worked like a charm and is one of my favorites to wear and make as gifts.

This is a beautiful wrap made from the top down. It has a lace edging that is worked off the needles in an interesting way. The shawl has one sleeve to keep you nice and warm!

This pattern is a top down, seamless, raglan style sweater that has optional sleeve instructions. Any sport weight yarn will work!
