KNOTTED RIB COWL

Modern Mini Poncho

I just listed my latest Knitting Pattern on RAVELRY  
Ponchos are always a great way to spice up a wardrobe and I think

this Mini Poncho will do just that. I did my increasing by going up

needle sizes rather than using increases which is something I have

been wanting to try out. This is a Quick Knit which makes it a Great

Gift as well as an addition to your wardrobe.

SIZE: Top 24” round, Bottom 42” round, 15” long

YARN: 3 balls of Berroco Flicker. 87% Baby Alpaca, 8% acrylic, 5%

other fibers. 189 yds, 175m, 1.75 oz, 50g Color # 3340

CARNIVAL COWL

JUST ADDED MY CARNIVAL COWL PATTERN TO RAVELRY----FREE.  It's a fun project to knit !
I wanted to do a Quick Project using Bright Colors and this fills the bill. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize and you end up with something to bright up the cold winter days.

AUTUMN DELIGHT SHAWL

It's the first day of Autumn and the pattern for my RAVELRY finished and  I am listing it on Ravelry, etsy and Craftsy today. This is a really fun shawl to knit up as anything in Noro Yarn is because the yarn constantly reveals beautify color changes as you knit. I found the stitch patterns I used to be extremely enjoyable and it moves along quickly.

CARNIVAL COWL FINISHED

Another Project Finished now I have to write the pattern.  I am getting a little backed up with the pattern writing. :(

This was Fun & Cheerful to knit up.

CO CO TOP FINISHED

Now I have to write the pattern. I named it after a color combination Co Co Chanel used in her famous patten leather and leather shoes.

I used LANG SOL LUX yarn and  it was a pleasure to knit with plus it has a little sparkle.

SPRING FLING MINI SHAWL

I love a Shawl.  It’s a great accessory and can freshen up any outfit. This shawl is asymmetrical  which creates  interest in the shape and stripe pattern.  The finished Shawl has a nice drape and is very comfortable.  I used the wonderful garter stitch which makes it an easy knit and the color changes will keep your interest.  Hope you enjoy making it as much as I did.

EZY LOG CABIN BABY BLANKET

I JUST ADDED THIS PATTERN TO RAVELRY

Last year I designed The Ezy Log Cabin Blanket/ Throw and I was asked many times to do a

Baby Blanket Version so here it is. My inspiration was the Pennsylvania Dutch

Amish Quilts. I love their bold geometric patterns and dynamic color

combinations. This blanket starts with a center panel that has three colors

worked in a stripe pattern. You than pick up stitches for each side panel and work

in a stripe pattern. This is an easy and fun project with Bold results.
