Turn heads while wearing this! Camille is not your standard hat; the cables only enhance its clever construction. Knit this with a shorter body, as above, or with a longer body for added coverage.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
den Arend’s striking feature is the spiraling panel of cables working its way down to the brim. This is a top-down hat that can be made to any length; the spare design makes it a unisex pattern. The yarn color, I believe, is what makes this hat masculine or feminine.
Knitting: Scarf
A simple project, doable in a weekend. It’s a loosely-knit scarf based on the drop stitch. There are many variations of the drop stitch scarf published on the web. This particular one uses Patons Divine and makes a decent-sized scarf.
Knitting: Booties
Construction is entrelac squares, with a bit of shaping for the toe and heel. Garter stitch. The best part is there are only two ends to weave in.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Inspiraled (or Inspir(al)ed is a knit hat enhanced by a spiraling four-stitch cable that circles up to the top. As well as having two yarn weight options (sport/dk knit on US3 and US4 dpns; worsted on US6 and US7 dpns), there are two lifted increase options. The pattern may seem easy, but pay attention to the charts!
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
This isn’t so much a pattern as it is a guideline for knitting a pair of striped socks, in Koigu or any other yarn, that uses up all the yarn.

ISSUE 1: Missing stitch on row 1.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
Meteora is a simple 2-color striped hat with a decorative pompom.
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
This toe-up sock pattern uses Priscilla Gibson-Roberts’ short-row shaping and a combination of lace and delicate cables. The comfortable fit and stretchiness of the lace makes this the perfect socks for lounging around on cold winter days.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
The graceful lines of the lily of the valley, Spring’s eternal symbol, are echoed in the lace pattern featured here. Bobbles or beads substitute for its tiny bell-shaped flowers. Muguet is a charted pattern.
Knitting: Cardigan
Required skills and techniques: Reading charts, cabling, paired increases (M1 and all its variations) and decreases, short rows (in particular Japanese short rows).
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
The Sequoyah Shawl is knit from the neck down using basic techniques to create an arresting textured shawl. The pattern of Stockinette, purl ridges, and lace is reminiscent of tree rings: how annual changes in the environment influence the thickness and texture of each growth ring. This half-circle shawl is knit in Charlemont, a soft wool blend...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This is an easy-peasy pattern: strips of stockinette and yarnovers in a set sequence. The last 4 rows are garter stitch, to avoid the stockinette curl.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This simple hat with a lil bit o’ style is named for a world-class climbing area in Catalunya, Spain. Crowded with climbers, the endless cliffs surrounding Siurana soar 35 meters and higher. The hat’s 6-stitch cable pattern brings to mind the hidden pockets typical of Spanish limestone. This is the 3rd hat in the Destination Series. Named after...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This is the first in the series of hats inspired by “Land Artists” who used Nature’s most fascinating (and prettiest) form, the spiral, in their work. The other two are den Arend and Goldsworthy (coming soon).
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
My then-boyfriend’s favorite chocolate is Milka, and he requested a hat similar to the one that German biathletes wore. Their hat was knit in purple yarn with the word “Milka” knit in ecru. As a vegetarian he wanted the word “Soya” instead.
Knitting: Booties
Construction is mitered squares, with a bit of shaping for the toe and heel. Garter stitch. There are multiple ends to weave in, so I recommend knitting them in as you go.
