This traditional-style sleeveless cardigan is worked in the round for ease of knitting, with steeks for cut openings at the front and armholes.

Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This is a tvåändsstickning (twined) hat that may be the warmest you will ever own, with a double layer of already double-dense twined knitting around the brim. The pattern is for a single size, to fit a head circumference of 22-24”.
Knitting: Chart
This is not a full sock pattern - just the chart for the cuff pattern.

Knitting: Tote
This handsome bag is created with simple Fair Isle patterns in a regular sequence of colour combinations. It is ideal as a first project for someone new to stranded knitting.
