Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
I am not sure where the idea came from for this shawl, but I really like the effect it offers. And how many variations in yarn, gauge and size that can be applied to it! Worked here in 3 colors of Malvinas with contrast chevron and edgings in Ito, this shawl was fun to knit, comfortable to wear and makes me happy to look at!
Knitting: Cardigan
I really enjoyed working with these refreshing colors! The slipped stitch pattern really helps to tie them together and is easy to knit too. Looking forward to seeing what colors you choose for your Calling Spring Cardie!
Knitting: Scarf
Love the diagonal interest in this scarf! It is worked using my DropStitch Openwork technique which allows you to work the openings without breaking the yarn. This pattern includes instructional photos on how to work the technique. It’s a quick, fun knit using one ball of ITO from Noro. Enjoy!
Knitting: Scarf
Love the gutsy feel of these two new Noro yarns - the tonal Malvinas and self-striping Viola! This is a zigzag pattern with strategic bind-offs to create the openings. You can have the side border or leave it off, as you wish! Enjoy!
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Really like how this stripey ribbed pattern looks! Lots of texture and yet quick and enjoyable to knit. Any DK yarn can be used so this is a real stashbuster. Shown below in size Medium fitted version.
Knitting: Vest
I just love how the cables pop in my Affetto Seta! It is held double in my Origins pattern and worked on a bigger needle making a lush and still light fabric. I have included five sizes and two different lengths in the pattern! Happy knitting!
Knitting: Throw
This throw is worked with Bachi from Noro in individual symmetrical garter stitch squares featuring my DropStitch Openwork technique. The pattern can be applied to any weight of yarn. Just work the squares in the correct gauge for the yarn you are using.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
I just love everything about this slipped stitch pattern and fabric! And how the colors change so often…. Worked here in yarns from Noro this stitch pattern gives you a lot of room to try out different yarn combos in the form of swatches.
Knitting: Vest
This stitch pattern just sort of developed on the needle as most of mine do… really like it! It is absolutely geometrical but has a whimsical quality that I was not expecting. I’m pleased!
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
As many of you know, I just love chevrons! Here I’ve used them with openings in an asymmetrical shawl… Not difficult but involves counting and keeping track of the repeats.
Knitting: Scarf, Shawl / Wrap
This Checkerboard pattern always reminds me of the windows in a NY apartment building. The holes are worked using my DropStitch Openwork technique which allows you to make columns for openings in your knitted fabric without breaking the yarn. Three different stitches create an interesting depth to the fabric.
Knitting: Pullover
I’ve always loved this sweater! It’s a fun knit too. I originally worked it in a worsted weight wool (pictured to the right), but it is even yummier in my Affetto Seta. I have redone the sizing and added two additional sizes!
Knitting: Pullover
Love this easy crew neck pullover, worked here in two different colorways of Taiyo from Noro. The sleeves are picked up along the armhole edge and worked down to the wrist allowing for easy adjusting of sleeve length and less finishing! A perfect way to bring more color into your wardrobe!
Knitting: Poncho
This decorative little capelet is worked in the round with my Affetto Seta. The overhand knots are worked in as you go… no need to break the yarn either!
Knitting: Cowl
Love this stitch pattern in Super Bulky Rasta from Malabrigo… The 2 stitch cables lend texture and the yarnovers lend drape resulting in a fabric that is deceptively pliable and comfortable for its weight.
Knitting: Scarf
Needed a Noro fix so I created this quick neck wrap combining in two of my stitch patterns - chevrons and DropStitch Openwork! Photographed at our wonderful coffee shop in Mariefred named Två Goda Ting (Two Good Things), I decided it would be a fitting name for this design!
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This cabled neck wrap is perfect for adding a little color and warmth to your day!
Knitting: Drawstring Bag
Sometimes it’s the little things that give everyday life that extra little joy! I found my self longing for a pretty pouch to keep my jewelry in when I travel. Here is my little silk pouch that is worked in just one hank of my Silkette! Guaranteed to bring a smile to your face… or why not make it for a friend!
Knitting: Tee
At last!! I’m pleased to present my first ever seamless raglan top down in the round pattern. It is a rework of my popular Julia pattern worked in my undyed Silke at a slightly tighter gauge suitable for a light DK yarn. I used yarnover increases to add interest in the yoke.
Knitting: Pullover
Love this easy to wear wide pullover! I designed a new (at least to me!) basketweave stitch pattern and found this rendition very appealing. The fabric created by combining my Shaman and Affetto Seta is both soft but stable enough to showcase the tone-on-tone depth of the color and the stitch pattern. Want to substitute? Pretty much any yarn th...
Knitting: Scarf
This scarf features a half-wheel stitch pattern that can be both decorative and/or dramatic depending on what yarns you use! This version is in yarns from Noro.
Knitting: Sleeveless Top
I love cables and my Silke shows them off well, I think. I decided on a tabard silhouette so as not to distort the cabling more than necessary.
Knitting: Coat / Jacket
I love jackets… especially ones with self-finishing edges. This simple silhouette showcases the Noro Ito so well, I think! I lost count at 28 different colors.
Knitting: Tee
I had the distinct pleasure of seeing Lily Tomlin in Grace & Frankie wearing my Ekeby pattern one night and decided it was time to develop it further! I changed the neckline slightly, added some extra notches at the bottom of Front and Back and a little cap sleeve, and Frankie’s Tee was born!
Knitting: Cowl
I love creating fabrics… I think the combination of Caracol and Mecha (both from Malabrigo) using this simple slip stitch pattern has created a knitted fabric with unique textural interest and a luxurious drape.
Knitting: Cowl
This decorative lacy cowl is perfect in Sister Silk!
Knitting: Cardigan
I have always loved this cardigan! Even though it is a bulky yarn it is elegant and flattering… I improved and reworked the original pattern from the book.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
love the quiet drama of my DropStitch Openwork™ edging in this easy to wear wrapper. Simliar to my Dragon Tale Shawl my Radiance Wrapper has no shaping in the main part and the fringe is calculated and worked in a heavier gauge yarn.

Knitting: Pullover
Everyone who is familiar with my design work knows that I like to create textured fabrics often with holes. Dulcinea is a good example of this, featuring a happy blend of color and texture. The silhouette is straight and the stitch pattern is logical but eye-catching.
