Knitting: Scarf
Easy lace, cables, and beads for sparkle flow in a current down the scarf reminding me of our local Little River. Preciosa Tonal relaxes significantly when blocked yielding a generous yet light fabric. Beading is optional, but the pattern is a good beginner beading project.
Knitting: Cowl
You decorate the tree, now you can decorate yourself for the holidays with this whimsical double knit cowl. I was inspired by the memory of my mother, who loved a red cowl and kept Christmas well. This piece uses standard and double knit techniques but should be achievable for advanced beginners. The design removes some of the pain points of do...

Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
This design has been loafing in my mind for over a year now. At first I swatched for a cowl in the round but I kept slipping the swatch onto my arm. The lace and garter motif scrunched on my arm and looked like jewelry to me. How fun! How many rings? I leave that option open to you. Also, although my sample is in two colors there is nothing to ...
Knitting: Cowl
This cowl is luxuriously wide and made to drip and drape over your shoulders. As I was charting the lace motif, it reminded me of airplanes and how I love to fly on vacation. In a sport weight yarn, it is a nice thing to have or knit when that little overhead airline A/C vent is blowing at you.

A cozy hug in a simple, yet elegant wrap. Easy to knit with only a few written lines of instruction. For the times when you like to knit without a chart!

Knitting: Pillow / Cushion
It all started when I got a skein of Bernat’s Glow In The Dark yarn. I thought of glowing things and Hubble space shots came to mind. I made a swatch but didn’t think I had the right yarn or idea for the project. I put the swatch on Pinterest with the notation “Pillow?” Someone repinned with the idea of a pillow for a boy’s room. Perfect! I wor...

Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
A light stole for evenings on the beach or the theater. The relaxed ripples add another dimension to the undulating color waves of the Swish Tonal.

My inspiration came from the pastoral intern at my church who wore a simple thin ribbed knit scarf and refused to take it off inside the 108 year old building with intermittent heat. I thought this would look smashing on her and as an indoor/outdoor piece.
