The design for this socks was inspired by a picture of a pair of cheap, machine-made (!) socks with vinyl lettering that my best friend sent me. She demanded I created a knitting pattern for them. I saw the phrase and automatically came up with 3 more phrases I would want my socks to say! Off I went to my design notebook and this design was bor...

When I saw the Old Town colorway, I knew it needed to be prominent in this project. So, I decided to use it as a background to small slipped stitches so that the different shades of the colorway show through. Slipped stitches look beautiful in colorwork, if I do say so myself. This yarn blooms beautifully when soaked and feels wonderful when wo...

There are times as a knitter when you want to knit a quick, mindless project. Something with just enough pizzazz that you don’t end up bored to tears. But I also wanted to make it fun so I used several colors of yarn and made random stripes. You could also just use a hand-dyed yarn instead.

Simple step-by-step instructions and pictures to make it easy for you to learn to knit socks from the top down.

Here comes autumn with its brisk winds that get just under your collar and give you a chill. One needs a nice collection of cowls to ward off these chilly breezes. Knit up as many as you can, in as many luscious yarns as you can. They’re super quick to knit on those 16” circular needles!

My younger cousin, Sabrina, I love her. She’s so funny. Her status messages on instant messaging remind me of when I was in my early 20s and partying like a fool, just like she is doing now. Wow, those were the days.

I have a fascination with cables. All kinds of cables: easy, complicated, ribbed, reversible. You name it. When fall comes around I want to knit cables all the time.

Malabrigo and their luscious yarns. I swear, they can be such an addiction!

As summer leads into the chilly days of fall, you want to make sure you have something to wrap around you at the ready. A shōru, or shawl, is the easiest thing to put around your neck or shoulders when you feel those crisp autumn breezes.

When I first heard of this yak/bamboo blend from Bijou Basin Ranch, I was curious to know what it felt like. When I finally held a skein, I was amazed at the softness of the yarn despite being 75% yak, a fiber known to be itchy. I knew this yarn would make a perfect cap that would hug my head as it would feel silky on my forehead instead of scr...

If Bella from Twilight® had a cowl, this is what it would look like. Inspired by the Bella’s Mittens pattern by Marielle Henault, I designed a cowl to match.

Beautiful lace cowls and scarves are wonderful additions to anyone’s collection of accessories. These look great with just about anything you wear. From jeans and a t-shirt you wear to the movies to a suit you would wear to work, a knit lace scarf or cowl is great to have handy.

Sometimes, it’s so chilly outside that you just want to huddle inside something super warm and cozy.
