Cowls are some of my favorite patterns to design and to knit. Because they are relatively small with fewer stitches and rounds than a sweater, they are great introductions to new skills like simple lace or cables. They are also perfect for quick and easy car or travel knitting.

I’ve been thinking a lot about gratitude recently and as part of that I’m starting a new Gratitude Program. I’m offering a free pattern of your choice for every $25 spent on my Ravelry patterns. Past purchases on Ravelry definitely apply! To receive your free pattern(s) use the code(s) GRATITUDE25, GRATITUDE50 or GRADITUDE75 at checkout. Happy knitting!

Sweater weather is finally here in my part of the world! To celebrate I’m offering all my sweaters here at 30% off through the end of the day on November 3, 2023. No code needed.

I love the thought process from idea to finished sweater and I really, really love the brain power it takes to turn one size into 6 or 7 sweater sizes in a finished pattern. I know that sounds a little geeky but I don’t mind - many of my friends are engineers, programmers or mathematicians and most are gamers. So I’m in good company!
