Knitting: Shrug / Bolero
This little bolero is fun to make! Quick and easy!! Worked flat, in one piece, starting at lower back. All garter stitch, just knit, knit, knit. It is very stretchy and will fit a variety of sizes and shapes.
Knitting: Cowl
You know how patterns that are knit in the round say, “Join, being careful not to twist”? Well, in this pattern, you twist it on purpose!!! Use a 36” circular Size 11 U.S. needle. It is fun, quick and easy to knit.
Knitting: Baby Blanket, Beanie, Toque
Uses 400g chunky weight yarn. I used Dale of Norway “Flamingo” (doubled) and Crystal Palace “Fizz”. Very fun and quick project!
Knitting: Glasses Case
This handy little cover for your sunglass clip-on can be made to fit any size, just adjust the number of stitches. The model is 1¼” wide X 5” long (when measured flat).
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Model is knit with double strand of worsted weight yarn & a U.S. #10 needle. The pattern is also written for worsted weight & a U.S. #8 needle. The scarf is reversible, so no more worrying about only showing the right side!
Knitting: Pet Clothing
This is a fun project! You knit this dog sweater from the neck down, custom fitting it as you go for any size dog!
Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
I was inspired to design these gloves out of love for my step-son Ben’s future wife, Ashlee. Use 100% true white cotton so you can “dye” them ivory or ecrue, if need be, by giving them “a tea bath”.
Knitting: Earwarmers
This is a quick, fun project. No Gauge! Adjust overall length through the center. The flower is Crocheted. The pictures do not do it justice. It is adorable!
Knitting: Gloves
Easier than you think! If you can use double point needles, you can knit this. It is fun!
Crochet: Purse / Handbag
I used Noro Daria, color #30 (54 yds/skein, cotton/rayon), exactly 3 skeins, but had to “fudge” a little.
Knitting: Brimmed Hat
Use 16” circular needles. May use Worsted weight yarn and US #8 for head larger than 17” circumference.
