Knitting: Cardigan
A pony-eared hoodie that’s close-fitting, smooth and entirely seamless - it’s knitted in one piece (even the ears). The shoulders and body are gently shaped to suit a child’s body, and to make that gloriously enormous hood sit comfortably. The hood is plenty big enough to be a pony disguise, or flop around like a cape, however you prefer to wea...

Crochet: Mittens
Using one basic pattern, you can crochet owl, puffin or rockhopper penguin mittens to fit all ages, from toddler – adult. Five different sizing options are given, to fit hands from 4.5” to 8.5” wide (when measured around the palm above the thumb).
Knitting: Baby Blanket
Strikingly different heirloom baby pram blanket, blending a muted rainbow of stripes with different textures and aran-style stitches. It’s knit in one piece using 6 colours at once, with a simple crochet border. The variety of textures means that it would look just as beautiful with one colour.
Crochet: Accessories - Other, Cozy - Other
This pattern tells you how to crochet a simple but effective cover for your recorder. It’s worked back and forth in stripes, then simply seamed, and ties added.

Knitting: Muff
This pattern produces a beautiful, quirky but deeply practical muff in the shape of a loveheart that is identical to the original version of the Loveheart Muff Handwarmer pattern except… this simpler version uses more basic techniques so has unobtrusive seams at the side.
Crochet: Edging
Very detailed 6-page PDF of written instructions and photos describing how you can make a sturdy row of hearts bunting, an edging of hearts, or a border with embedded hearts in it.
Knitting: Muff
All Rainbow Knits original designs are very practical as well as cute and quirky. This loveheart muff certainly fits the bill!

Alongside the written instructions I’ve provided a detailed photo tutorial. Over 6 pages, I show you how to work a single poppy, or do a line of poppies as a crocheted no-sew edging to a blanket or other straight edge.
Knitting: Electronics Cozy
This cute little mobile phone cover is knitted and cabled in the round and entirely seam-free. It’s fast, distinctive and with only 30-35m of yarn needed, is a real stash-buster!
Knitting: Electronics Cozy
Ever heard of an eSock? It’s just a cover for your electronic items (mobile phones, compact cameras, calculators, MP3 players, etc.). It fits an original iPhone 3GS perfectly, as well as most little electronic items because it’s so stretchy. Obviously a knitted cover won’t protect them from all bumps and scratches, but this dense little sock wi...

Knitting: Muff
Warmer than mittens or gloves? Check (wow, and then some!). Stays on without straps, clips or choke-hazard neck-cord? Check. Big enough not to lose, but small enough to be unobtrusive? Check. Colourful and quirky without being garish? Check. This pretty and practical handwarmer or muff met the demanding requirements of my active little daughter...
Knitting: Muff
This cute handwarmer or muff isn’t just decorative - the double-layer and insulating air gap will keep little fingers warmer than mitts or gloves alone. The construction means it grips gently onto wee hands so there’s no need for a choke-hazard neck cord.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
The texture of the stripes really brings out the beautiful rainbow colours of this cute beanie! It just looks more stunning the closer you get to it.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This simple beanie is loved by adults and children alike, with its subtle splash of rainbow colour. It’s the perfect pattern if you want to learn how to knit with different colours, because I provide full instructions and a detailed photo tutorial of how to darn all the colour ends away neatly and invisibly.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This is the perfect beanie for you if you like your rainbows subtle! It’s also ideal for the beginner who wants to extend their skills a little - you only need to be able to cast-on, cast-off, knit, purl and decrease by knitting 2 stitches together.
