Worked from the bottom up the body features darted waist shaping that hits a little higher than the natural waistline, which I find is more flattering to the majority of women. Three quarter length sleeves are simply a personal favourite, but could easily be lengthened if you don’t find yourself constantly pushing sleeves out of the way, as I do...

A sweet pixie hood inspired both by cute patterns from the forties for little girls and more glamourous ones of starlets in headscarves. The vintage patterns I looked at involved working separate rectangles for hood and scarf, but this one uses a neat cast on method more commonly used for toe up socks to begin the hood and scarf together at the ...

Three petals bloom from the centre top edge, their points organically growing into the three spines of yarn over increases. This unusual increase pattern creates the perfect shape for staying in place around your shoulders. The petals along the edge are grouped into threes, echoing the centre and forming deep scallops.

Nathaniel will bring a little woodland whimsy to your home. He’s fun to knit, although he’s made of 2 flat silhouettes with a garter stitch strip between them he’s knit seamlessly in the rnd. Nathaniel is just the right size to be a cozy, functional cushion that also looks wonderful propped on a bed or chair when you’re not squashing him.

Worked from side to side and shaped with simple short row wedges the capelet features a neat integrated I cord edging around the neck and a deep lace and cable pattern around the gently flared bottom edge. The yarn used is perfect in...

Fun and highly practical mittens with flip-tops that will keep your fingers toasty warm but allow them to make a quick escape when you need to unlock the door or button your coat. The cable and petal pattern on the cuffs grows into an elegant motif on the back of the hand that invisibly incorporates the necessary shaping for the thumb. Picking u...

A cosy tam featuring an allover lattice cable pattern,

Pretty fingerless mitts with a buttoned lace cuff. The cuff, featuring drooping elm leaf pattern, is worked back and forth and then stitches are picked up along one edge and the rest of the mitt is knit in the round downwards.

Its shallow curved shape, perfect for gracefully wrapping around your neck, was inspired by Laura Chau’s Just Enough Ruffles Scarf pattern and Lilith of Old Maiden Aunt created the beautiful yarn. The flowing, organic edging pattern, with its unusually larg...

These stockings are a great way to stashbust and they’d also make a wonderful introduction to the world of sock knitting - no teeny needles or second sock syndrome! Worked from the toe up with a Japanese short row heel and stranded colourwork at the cuffs which are finished with an I-cord bind off that neatly continues to form the hanging ...

A cute baby polar bear toy knit without seams on double pointed needles. Otto was designed to be round and cuddly but still easy for little hands to grasp. He knits up quickly and the size can be varied by changing the weight of yarn used. Otto would make a wonderful gift for any kid, or adult.

Round yoked cardigan worked seamlessly from the bottom up Coraline features a beautiful smocking pattern on the yoke and neat details, such as I-cord edges, to give a perfect finish. Worked in a light, drapey yarn Coraline will flatter many figures and makes a great layering garment that will take you through several seasons.

Cabled beanie knit in the round from the top down. The doubled hem keeps ears warm while the peak inside it keeps the sun - or the snow - out of your eyes. Templates for cutting the peak from plastic canvas are included in the pattern.

A sweet stuffed rabbit toy knit without seams on double pointed needles. Sophie was designed to be round and cuddly with long floppy ears and legs that are easy for little hands to hold onto. She knits up quickly and is a great way to use up small amounts of yarn.

Simple garter stitch fingerless mitts knit from side to side and shaped with short rows.

A slouchy beret worked in a two colour star stitch pattern with a simple ribbed band. The crown shaping continues the star theme with paired decreases worked in along five stocking stitch ribs that come together in a central starburst. Shown in a beautifully soft baby llama yarn that creates a lovely drape and softly blended colours. It could al...

The beret is knit sideways in garter stitch and composed of eight wedges shaped with short rows. Because it’s in garter stitch there is no need to bother with picking up the wraps and the only part of this pattern that really pushes it into the tangy category is grafting the two short ends together to transform the unrecognizable curl of k...

Beret with lattice cable pattern worked in worsted weight yarn. Pattern is given for three different styles to create a traditional fitted beret shape, a slouchy snood like shape, or a regular style somewhere in between the other two and similar to a traditional tam (not pictured).
