Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
With “I’m Batman”, you have the option of a shallow or deeper shawl version to choose from, the deeper shawl offering basic lacework at the bottom section. They both start at the neck, where contrasting garter lines are followed by the web-like filler fabric. Because the rows begin and end at the center for Section 1, the yarn at rest is carrie...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Alien Emissary is an asymmetrical, curved, triangular shawl and is the sister of the “Bjayzl” shawl, with some inventive design features that take it to new places! It starts with an alternating I-cord cast on, and ‘feathers’ of spines and webs that make the shawl grow in stacked wedges. The holey webs are created by bind off and cast on stitch...
Knitting: Beret, Tam
Saturn Hex beret is an opportunity to put your own designer ‘spin’ onto it. It can be knit in one yarn and color, but as you can see by my examples, there’s a myriad of choices you can make with color blocking. It’s also an amazing yarn-stash buster, and the perfect, quick-knitted gift. Along with a chart, I’ve included a Coloring-In Template s...

An attractive diagonal folding effect is achieved so that you have contrast color ‘fins’ on both ends. The scarf can be ma...

This shallow triangle is started at the small end and grows with every set of spine and web. It’s your choice of the yarn combination, as long as your spine yarn is thicker than your web yarn. It’s also...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This triangular shawl is started at the narrow tip and increases as you go, alternating between background sections and increasingly longer ‘arrows’. The arrow fins are created by first knitting wedges using German Short Rows, then tucking them back in with a hybrid of a Three-Needle Bind off. The arrow tip is a ‘diamond’, a hybrid of the India...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This triangular shawl starts at the top and radiates out, using stockinette and garter ridges, with ‘diamonds’ scattered throughout for interest. The pattern is repeated with each of the 5 colors. If you desire a kerchief style, just end with less repeats. It finishes with an I-cord edging.
