Traveller’s Hat Pattern and Video

The Traveller’s Hat is a very easy beginner knit pattern if starting with the long-tail cast on, or is perhaps an advanced beginner or intermediate project if using the circular tubular cast on, which I recommend. It’s a slouchy hat that works well for both men and women. The hat is knit in wide stripesContinue reading “Traveller’s Hat Pattern and Video”

Coco Knits Sweater Pattern

I made this Coco Knits Sweater from her Sweater Workshop as a class offered by my local yarn store, Yarnatopia.

I like to use the provisional castContinue reading “Cables with a Twist Ear Warmers Pattern”

Stone Point Poncho Pattern

I had this Stone Point Poncho pinned for two years before I got around to making it, and love it as much as I thought I would. It’s a really fun pattern to knit with just enough interest to not be boring and just enough repeat to the pattern to be able to knit whileContinue reading “Stone Point Poncho Pattern”

Snowdrift Infinity Cowl Pattern

This Snowdrift Infinity Cowl is such a beautiful pattern. It’s a little complicated for a beginner, and very helpful to use a lifeline because it’s hard to pick up the stitches correctly if you need to go back and fix a mistake. But once you get the hang of it, it’s fun to knit andContinue reading “Snowdrift Infinity Cowl Pattern”
