    The shawl I’ve been working on is finally ready! Bestellen features a fun cable & lace pattern for awesome squish and warmth. The shawl is worked top-down, with elongated wings for extra wrap-ability, and finishes off with a simple ribbing. Got a couple of skeins of sock yarn? Of course you do!

  • New ebook: On My Way

    New patterns! This little collection features a hat, handwarmers, a shawl, and a shrug, all in lightweight yarn with an easy to memorize lace pattern. They’re all quick and intuitive to knit – I had a really nice time working up some accessories between bigger sweater projects. Each pattern is $5 on its own, or get the whole collection for just $10! Perfect for the transition to fall and (shhh) gift knitting.

    AWAIT is a simple side-to-side shrug in stretchy ribbing and lace. This easy knit is perfect for throwing over your tees, tanks, and dresses to take them into the first days of fall! Okay, it doesn’t use just one skein of yarn, but it’s close – I used 2 skeins of luscious madelinetosh pashmina for mine.

    new shawl design

    soon...

    I’m always in the wrong season! It feels like fall here the last couple days, but here I am getting ready to release a small collection of lacy accessories. These would be great for light fall layers and even (gasp) holiday gifts though! I’m also pretty excited about my current knitting, which is a new design for a cable-and-lace shawl in RED that does scream autumn.
