Brown Sheep

As you all may remember, at the end of last year I made the amazing Vivian by Ysolda... using Brown Sheep yarn. A blend of mohair and wool, it was a beautiful addition to my ever growing knitwear collection.

Knitting with Olof is hosting a giveaway with Brown Sheep yarn!! Please visit the blog for details, and the chance to win 4 skeins of Brown Sheep!

The Latest Addition...

... to the Baby Hearts series... SOCKS!

My first ever sock pattern. This pattern was so much fun to design. It matchs the Baby Hearts Hat. Please stay tuned for the third installment in this series... Mittens!

And so it begins...

Today is a fantastic day! I have officially become a designer on Raverly. Two patterns officially for sale!

Winter Leaf Fingerless Mitts

So I decided to jump on the Fingerless Mitts bandwagon with a simple Winter Leaf design to match the slouchy tam.

One More

Third new design.. Baby Vintique. Based on a hat my grandmother bought at a vintage shop.

New Designs

My first knitting designs have been posted on Rav for testing! Hope to have the patterns posted for sale within the next two weeks. First one is Baby Hearts Fair Isle Beanie. Knit with two balls of Crystal Palace Mini Mochi, it is an easy beginning fair isle knit. The second one is my Winter Leaf Slouchy Tam. Made up of four rows of fifteen staggered leaves, it is a beautiful addition to my growing hat collection!

Varigated Disaster

While working with Crystal Palace Mini Mochi, almost at the end of the hat, I came across a knot....

How is this an acceptable color change!
