I’ve seen bulky cowls like this all over the place this winter. I thought I’d seen one that was similar here on Ravelry, but I can’t find a pattern exactly like this one I made up.

This is my very first crochet pattern. I’m offering it for free to get some feedback. Eventually I will include it in a little collection of related patterns.

I love this simple slip stitch pattern because I’m always drawn to combinations of three different colors. Bright, neutral, monochromatic, or unexpected mixes -- colors call to me three at a time.

I knit this hat while volunteering at Bosque Villiage, an organic farm near Patzcuaro, Mexico. I was inspired by the pine forest and the beautiful starry nights. I used natural undyed wool to promote the ecological values of the farm. It’s a beautiful lifestyle and an important alternative to mindless consumerism that aligns well with the ethos...

Inspired by Calorimetry, this is a very flattering and practical headband that will keep you warm and stylish. It’s perfect with a ponytail and a cute, feminine option for short hair.

Entrelac is a great technique to show off variegated yarns with long colorways.

Pretty + easy = Peasy.

I love this pattern. It’s lovely and reversible. Every row is the same back and forth except for the cable row, so it’s easy, too. I’ve knit it in several worsted and DK weight yarns, all with great results.

I love these gloves. I make them with beads sometimes to highlight the cable pattern. They are warm and pretty, and the cable pattern is easy to follow because of the mini cables that act as row counters to tell you when to cable.

This is a cute, easy cabled hat. The mini cables help you keep track of where the bigger cables should cross, and the pattern ends before the decreases begin. The small brim is really flattering.
