Solace Re-release!

Solace Cardigan

Originally published in Knit Now, Issue 24, Solace has been updated and re-released through my blog and Ravelry!

Totally seamless, top down with raglan shaping, Solace is enjoyable to knit and you will only have a few ends to weave in!...and maybe a button to sew on!  Worsted or Aran weight yarn also makes it a quicker knit than most cardigans.

Rounded front edges adds style but also a nice shape that looks good on a variety of body types.

A simple slip stitch pattern is worked throughout with wide ribbed bands for a classic feel.

Sizes XS-XXL, finished bust of 30"-54", included 0-2" of positive ease.

$2 off Solace Cardigan Pattern from December 11-13, 2013.  Discount is applied at checkout.  Happy knitting!

Waddle, waddle! Waddles Toque Pattern

Waddles Toque

...another little toque to go along with the Hoot Toque & the Twiga Toque...

Worked from the top down, seamlessly and in the round, Waddles is quick to knit and requires only minor embellishments to finish it off!  This is a fun toque to learn some new techniques and give as a gift.

Sizes Newborn, Baby, Toddler ,Child, Adult Medium & Adult Large.

A little bit of duplicate stitch is used to shape the eye arches and beak.  Buttons for eyes are too cute!  Pom poms accentuate the I-cord ties...

Loxley is SO happy to have a new toque as he outgrew his infamous Hoot Toque!!

$1 off pattern from November 20-22, 2013. Discount applied at checkout. Happy knitting!

WIP's (works in progress)….

WIP's!  Everyone's got 'em!  I try to keep mine to a minimum, but sometimes, it is hard not to get carried away with all the ideas that plow through my head as well as the beautiful yarns out there!

I have a few new toques in progress, to add to my Hoot Toque & Twiga Toque.  I really try to create all my patterns seamlessly and with interesting techniques.  Larger yarn and needles mean you are quickly gratified :)  

Lox has finally outgrown his Hoot Toque after 3 years of constant wear!  He has a fierce love for penguins, so a Waddles Toque was in order, or as he calls it, "Waddles Hoot Toque".  This pattern should be available in December.  Here is a little preview:

It is hard to see, but there are earflaps and a deeper back to the toque, a la Hoot & Twiga Toques.  There are also I-cord ties with bright orange pom poms!

My next toque will also be a Hamster Toque; no photos yet!

I have a very simple cap & matching cardigan pattern in the works, Baby Abernathy Cardigan & Cap.  Both are in testing and will be available in December, as well.  Both are seamless, simple, easy to knit up and have a vintage feel.  Here is Scarlett's Cap:

Sizes Preemie to 6 years!

Much more to come!!
