“What makes the desert beautiful,’ said the little prince, ‘is that somewhere it hides a well…”

This cute flowered beret is easy to make and works up in a few hours, starting from the center out. Customize for your intended head size by working decreases in the last round.

Optional: If you want to thread a ribbon through the spaces on round 11, you will need about 1 yd. of 1/2” satin or grosgrain ribbon in a complimentary or contrasting color, or a narrow rectangular silk scarf.

No longer available except through the magic of the Internet Archive, aka the Wayback Machine.

Also needed:

You will need 4 colors of fingering weight yarn, about 70 yds. per contrast color, and 100 yds. for the ribbing, heels & toes main color. Feel free to use more colors if you are looking for a great pattern to use up leftover colors. Solids, tonals, gradients and long repeat self-striping yarns will probably look better than variegated color...

Errata: I am knitting these socks again and just noticed a slight error. Until I can fix the PDF file, here is the correction to the edging pattern:

Use some self striping yarn to really make this pattern pop!

The Ravelry download is just a color chart (the magazine printed a black and white chart using symbols instead), not the entire pattern, but you could construct the sock using the chart alone.

This is one warm hat!!

Customizable hat crocheted from the top down in the cluster stitch granny square pattern. Use up scraps and make the hat in many colors or just one.

Note: As of 3/17/11, all proceeds from the sale of this pattern will be donated to the Earthquake Relief effort in Japan, either Doctors without Borders or the Red Cross Tsunami fund.

Knit toe up using a reverse Dutch heel variation (eye of partridge), with sizing options/advice.

Easy slip stitch patterns make these socks different. Pattern is written for use with one 12” circular needle, but it may be easily adapted for Magic Loop, DPN or 2 circular needle methods. Yardage includes both yarns used. You will need less than 50 grams of the multicolor and almost 100 grams of the solid if making the pattern as written.

Use a really cool raspberry color to wow the fans.

Use any combination of yarns you want to make this a true stash buster scarf. The hem of this scarf will naturally slant at a diagonal, due to the biasing nature of the stitch pattern
