Do you somehow always manage to twist the cast on stitches when joining to work in the round? Avoid this frustration by working the hat from the top down instead of the bottom up!

The bold central cable on the Calesco Hat goes sideways around the hat instead of from top to bottom. The hat has simple design lines where the bouncy, squishy, textured boucle yarn does the talking. Calesco is the Latin word for warm, and this hat will keep you warm and cosy.

This fun pair of fingerless mitts are worked using only 1 colour each round, with stitches being slipped and cabled to form the spiders.

This fun pair of socks has options for light or dark spiders and with the spiders facing up or down. The spiders have beads for eyes but these can be omitted if preferred.

One headband—many looks.

These fun shortie socks have a sparkling fold over cuff and picot detail.

This duo of fingerless mitts and a hat are ideal for gifting – to someone else or yourself. Sparkling beads in a frosty design make these knits extra special but if you are after a really quick knit just omit the beads. Soft merino and mohair are combined to create a luxurious feel that will keep you warm and stylish at the same time.

The pattern starts with a gentle ripply cast on at the cuff and goes straight into a summery eyelet rib, perfectly comfortable and stylish for wearing in tennis shoes or with Mary Janes. The eyelet rib flows into a ribbed heel that hugs the back of the foot.

These socks are inspired by my niece who is an accomplished ballet/modern/jazz dancer and by my own frustrations with limited mobility.

Swirling galaxies come down to earth in the form of this beanie pattern with variations for 3, 5 or 7 colour swirls in each of 3 sizes.

Once upon a time there was a little piggy who looked up to the sky and saw the birds flying overhead. That night the little piggy, legs twitching in his sleep, had a dream that he could fly…
