A few days ago, Bristol Ivy posted this message on instagram: I try hard not to get too political on here (with limited success sometimes) but right now I’m just worn out. Worn out by the violence, the sadness, the ignorance, the demonization, and the needless devastation happening all over the world. So I’m goingContinue reading “December donation drive + Remixed mega-update!”

In Triplicate 3-color pattern: Incenter mittens
My In Triplicate pattern for the hands is Incenter (yesterday I showed you my neck thing: Transversal; a few days earlier I told you all about the In Triplicate collection). These mittens have a really fun garter stitch construction, worked sideways across the hand, short rows making the triangular color blocks in the centers. The hands areContinue reading “In Triplicate 3-color pattern: Incenter mittens”
In Triplicate 2-color pattern: Transversal wrap/scarf
So, last post I told you all about the In Triplicate collection, generally; now here’s one of my patterns from it – Transversal is a big rectangle, which can be made wide as a wrap (like my sample), or narrow as a scarf if you prefer. Like all the In Triplicate patterns, this is designedContinue reading “In Triplicate 2-color pattern: Transversal wrap/scarf”

New pattern: Siskiyou!
It’s now officially October, and I have a fresh new pattern for you, for the chilly season! Siskiyou is a hat inspired by the Douglas Fir trees of Oregon. (On ravelry here!) It features a twisted stitch trees design (3 different trees), which happens to be reversible! I was given this Snowy colorway yarn byContinue reading “New pattern: Siskiyou!”
New pattern: Galax Shawl in Interweave Knits Gifts issue!
My latest pattern can be found in Interweave Knits Gifts 2015, in your local bookstore or yarn shop, or online here. Galax Shawl is a worsted weight, lacy, modular piece, which is almost more like a scarf than a shawl in shape: It’s a long, narrow shawl/wrap, or a wide, lacy, curved scarf, however youContinue reading “New pattern: Galax Shawl in Interweave Knits Gifts issue!”

New pattern: Triyang!
New pattern time! Triyang (ravelry link) is a garter stitch shawl, made any size with any weight yarn, with a fun modular construction – 3 narrow triangles are joined with short rows, increases, and decreases, no picked up stitches, to form a long, slightly asymmetrical triangle shape. Only 2 stitches are cast on, and there’s noContinue reading “New pattern: Triyang!”
