Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Chivalry is the perfect, chunky Shawl for cooler times. Stylish, fashionable, and timeless, three perfect terms for this Shawl. The Pattern Repeat is surprisingly easy to memorize. Chivalry is also perfect for using up all of your yarn, as the Pattern does not change. Just keep repeating until you have enough left to Bind Off.

Takara-treasure, when you create this Shawl of your very own, or to gift to someone special, I hope you think of it as its very own treasure. Little bits, edges, frilly things here and there make for an interesting knit that can be made out of just about any two colors. I do recommend higher contrast, but it is not necessary. I have listed stit...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
There are many days I wish there was a Guided Path for life, a correct way to go. So many days go by that confuse us with what is going on in the world around us. All we can do is be the best people we can be and take the path that is best for us at those times.

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
The name of one of my Samples colors inspired the textures stitches. “Rusty Gear” it made me think of a rusty machine part that someone brushed off and turned into a beautiful piece of artwork. Sometimes when you find certain colors of yarn, the design just falls into place and this is one of those cases! I just adore the retro feel to these co...

My favorite part of Spring is watching my ground to see the new growth peeking through. I wanted to design something that showcased the Accent Colors “peeking” around various parts of this Shawl just like Springtime.

This design was an instant blend of seeing the yarn and the design flew onto a notepad. As I worked up the initial piece, and my testers worked up theirs, countless other color options came to light.

I had this Shawl on my mind to use with Sock Sets that have extra minis or a Main Skein and some remnants. The curve of this shawl and the slipped pattern remind me of a curvy stone walkway into a secret garden. There is plenty of easy going knitting with some punches of a neat pattern in between. Topped off with Picot Edges for the Bind Off to...

They say honesty is the best policy, being honest with yourself is something I often need reminding of. Stay honest to who you are, what you believe, and what you really want out of your life. The design idea for this Shawl came when I received my 10K Club pre-sale email from Eat Sleep Knit (if you don’t know what I am talking about GO, run che...

For me the Kitchen is where the heart of our home is. This Shawl/Wrap was designed to showcase a mini set that The Golden Purls dyed up in ode to the kitchen table cloths used on The Golden Girls.

“With Love and Laughter” -Estelle Getty. This quote is found on Estelle’s Headstone. It has always stuck with me as the perfect way to sum up her life, and her life on screen too. She never cared about your skin color, nationality, religion, sexual preference, or anything really. All that mattered is that you were a good person, and if you were...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Forever Love is worked from the center out to each edge. Colors are totally up to you and approx. amounts used in each section, of each color, are given in the pattern. Light enough for summer and long enough to wrap multiple times in the winter, she can be worn all year. There are very few actual “pattered” rows which make it a very quick knit.

Back in St. Olaf… I think I have personally heard this phrase a million times so far in my life. The Golden Girls was a show I grew up watching, admiring, and becoming obsessed with.

When we have a loved one, friend, sibling, or pet we are really close with we tend to “sync” up. Whether it is in thought, actions, or anticipating each other’s next moves. As with the Grocery Girls.

Immunity is a play on a Dragon Skin stitch pattern that I have expanded to all forms of patterns. I was so excited to see how well this pattern worked up in a Self-Striping yarn! Also it looks great worked in the round. I decided to use the Fish Lips Kiss Heel which is totally worth the purchase (Available here on Ravelry).

Immunity is homage to the Immunity Necklace on Survivor. I was watching the show one night when I sketched out the first snippets of this piece. Once the shape was determined, I realized this is an awesome way to showcase a variegated yarn for the Pattern Sections and an accent color, or two, for the Dragon Skin Sections.

Zombie Prom Socks use the main Pattern Panel from Zombie Prom Shawl. It creates a nice cushy top to your foot and nice stretchy back. This sock is designed Toe Up using my own original Heel Design. If you need to go up a size, I would go up a needle size rather than adding stitches. As written this will make a Woman’s Medium sock, shoe size 7.

Soft Kitty was inspired by the yarn with its name by Inner Yarn Zen. I just fell in love with the colors and tones in the yarn; it needs to be knit up in something that had soft textures.

Ansel was designed with versatility in mind. There are four main ways that she can be worn, over shoulders as well as like a cowl, single or doubled. I think this pattern knits up best in a single-ply to be lighter and airier perfect for any time of year. The size is adjustable, to make it larger simply work more repeats before decreasing. This...

Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
Journey is a play on a slipped stitch cable that I came up with. The Fingerless version includes a neat flap at the top with accent button to add some pizzazz. These are not too bulky/not too thin and for me are perfect to wear and not get in my way. The main Mitt is worked in the round and the flap is worked flat.

Topanga means “where the mountains meet the ocean”. There are strong cables that border a lacey sparkly center of this scarf mimicking mountains and oceans.

Sachet is a wonderful play on combining cables and twisted stitches. A chain link cable pattern in surrounding a flowing cable in the center which is framed by columns of twisted stitches that travel down the sides of the leg. With such a patterned foot, I worked the pattern out before the toe as to not overpower the sock with pattern.

Holly is a great match of my love for traveling stitches and lace, what can go wrong!
