Penchant

I believe I promised you a new hat pattern before the winter was over.  And since we've just now gotten our first properly cold days and bits of snow, this seems like the perfect time to bring these out.  Penchant is now available on ravelry! And yes, there are totally two versions of the hat.  The whole time I was working the first one I kept thinking 'you know, if you shifted the decreases over just a tiny bit, you'd get a totally different look.'  So, I did.  And that one tiny change led to a whole new hat, so [...]

Slant (plus giveaway)

Ready for an oldie?  Slant were one of the very first sock patterns I ever put out (looks like my third one if I'm counting correctly).  They've been on hiatus while the pattern was totally revamped (new photos, new charts, new layout, loads more sizes), and now they're ready for their comeback! I loved these when I first made them (they're still in heavy rotation in my sock basket), and I love them now.  The rib ensures they'll fit beautifully.  The pattern is mirrored (because when you have lines like that you just have to do it that way, there's [...]

Wrack

They're here!  The pattern for Wrack (The Boy's latest socks, and oh buddy has has he ever earned them with the shipping shenanigans of the last week or so) is up on ravelry. You've watched these click along all through last December.  And if you've been here for a while, you know that me knocking out a pair of socks in less than a month is pretty darn speedy.  Part of that is the yarn (squoosh aran by Skeinny Dipping, and a lovely fat sock yarn it is), but part of it is totally the pattern.  The cables get you [...]

Irresolute

The pattern for Irresolute, the delightful, reversible hat and mitt set, is now up on ravelry.  I'm completely taken with these, and I suspect you're going to be charmed by them, too. You know those bits of knitting where you're not actually doing anything tricky, but the finished piece looks like you've done some kind of magic trick?  I sort of love those, and I suspect you do, too.  And this set totally falls into that category. Add in that it's reversible (the side you see above is what will be facing you as you work, but it looks like [...]

Upcoming

Next up in the the ongoing (dare I say never-ending, all-consuming, perhaps even frenzied) project of rereleasing old patterns, Adumbrate.  These will be going up this coming week. Folks on the mailing list will get an announcement (and usually some sort of coupon or other goody) as soon as it's up.  Now every time I send something to the mailing list, I get a few very nice emails from folks saying they didn't know about the mailing list and could they please have whatever the special offer is anyways.  And that's always awkward.  So in the interest of having fewer [...]

Lucent

Ok, important stuff first (but do read to the end, I've got yarn to give away).  This is Lucent. It's a marvelous little hat and cuff set.  It was a Woolen Rabbit club pattern back in the fall.  Ever since it came out, I've had oodles of folks asking when it could be theirs.  I don't blame them for being impatient (I've been eager to have this one out in the world too), and I'm delighted to say that the wait is over.  The pattern is now available. I adore this set.  The starburst is unreasonably fun to knit (and [...]

Amenable

The pattern for Amenable, the lovely, versatile socks I've been playing with for the last few months, is now up on ravelry.  First things first, some pictures.  Because I'm easily entertained and like pretty pictures. Now maybe a bit of that useful information stuff.  Just in case that would  come in handy.  These socks are written for four gauges (6, 7, 8, and 9 stitches per inch), which means you can use fingering, dk, or sport weight yarn (they're shown here in Caper Sock and Caper Aran by String Theory).  They're written in eight sizes, which means you'll be able [...]

Quiescent

Quiescent: adjective marked by inactivity or rest The slipper pattern is out, and you can find it over on ravelry, should you feel the need to make yourself a pair! Oh, and on the off chance kittens aren't your thing, I do have the odd pic or two with no kitten.  Let's see, perhaps this one will show off the knitting without the distracting influence of a Furry Overlord. Or maybe this one.  I swear that ribbing makes even my (shamefully flat) feet look all curvy and graceful.  Imagine what it will do for your lovely feet! These are made [...]

Marooned

I'm delighted to announce that Marooned is out and ready for your needles. These are the socks I worked on while we visited San Francisco this summer (yes, yes I did bring a sock blocker with me in my suitcase) and took pictures of at the beach.  I confess, I'm unreasonably pleased with them! Well, I'm delighted with the socks themselves (how could I not be), but the unreasonable glee is all coming from the pattern.  While I like my socks thick and smooshy (these are made with String Theory's Merino DK and so are super thick), I know not [...]
