One size, to fit adult head size 51-61 cm / 20-24 ins with a generous negative ease. The rib pattern will easily stretch to twice the width. Crown shaping does not have a noticeable spiral, but instead rib pattern is reduced until last decrease rounds. Long brim can be rolled twice for a fitted crown, once or not at all for a slouchy fit.

This garment fits school age children, approx 6 years old to 10 years old, depending on their size.

Worked sideways from sleeve cuff to sleeve cuff, with a slit forming the boat neck, this couldn’t be simpler. But how striking!

This is a very fast braided cable circular scarf. It is BIG.

This is a FREE handout given at Knit East for the shoppers in the market. You can also get the free handout while it lasts at Cricket Cove stores in New Brunswick, Canada.

This is a great way to use that funky handspun yarn you picked up somewhere!

This is a very easy and fast one piece, top down, raglan.

Use any aran weight yarn. I just like Galway and have used it twice. This is a great choice to make as a gift for Dad. It’s classic style is never out of fashion. The borders are in an easy mock cable rib, so it looks a bit better than completely plain. The armholes are generous to accomodate full sleeves at: 9 (9 1/2, 10, 10 1/2, 11, 11 1/2) i...

Ravelry download available here. Fast and easy for that last minute gift!

Tight fitting. 30- 40 inches finished.

I’m finally adding it as a Ravelry download. I think that most of the stores that stocked this pattern should have sold out by now. And if you are still selling the yarn, then you will like that the pattern is still available!

The beautiful glowing colors in this wide ribbon are impossible to resist! One skien will make the small and medium, two for the rest. It makes a very flexible knit fabric, so don’t make the size too big, go smaller if you are not sure.

Such a fun yarn! No need to work hard, Cindy did all the work when she made the yarn. A beginner might really enjoy something like this!

This info for hat, fingerless mitts and Legwarmers. This Cashmere yarn is the best choice for warmth and softness, but other aran weight yarns would work, too.

Great for those of us who don’t like a hat, but need warm ears. The softest cashmere was used in this design, but you can use any yarn that feels good on your head and is the same thickness.

Worked in a wide ribbon yarn. There are several like this on the market.

It’s a great party top for the upcomming holidays! Get the free pattern “Marble bag purse 107” to go with it. You need 77-123 yards of contrast colour (Rave), along with the main colour listed above. Any yarn that you would describe as super bulky will work for the contrast colour. The main colour is any plain worsted weight, any fibre. Easy en...

Any bulky or novelty yarn will work. An average ball is enough.

Sizes 40 -52 inches. Just like in the fashion magazines! Only costs near to nothing, and is cruelty free. Very quick to make with 4 strands held together.

100 yds MC, about a 50 gram ball, and 50 yds CC, about half a 50 gram ball.

This is fantastic in Noro! I’ve also seen it in self striping sock yarn! It only needs 2 skeins of Kureyon sock!

A fast and easy project, that can be worn many ways.

Easy to do, with basic shaping. Fast. Good for a teen. Similar item seen recently in fashion magazines.

Fast and easy! This is a good beginner project. Perfect for teens.

A wardrobe staple! Everybody needs something like this in thier everyday outfits. Its a top, worn alone; or over a blouse, becomes more professional. Not hard to do, and any aran weight will work. Pattern has 6 sizes: 31 1/2-49”.

This is a great basic pattern for any light worsted weight yarn.

EASY! FAST! Takes very little yarn. Use a chunky wool, but a novelty or handspun yarn would add interest.

A bit romantic? This shaped fitted jacket will add to your wardrobe. Knit in one piece with the sleeves added in. The flounced edge is made separately and sewn on. Not for beginners, the challenge is doing many things at once. The pattern tells you specifically when to do each new instruction. This is quite fast to complete, just keep track of ...

I love rummaging through bargain bins! I buy one ball only of “pretty” yarns. Do you have a collection too? This is a great way to play with those yarns! (Also see Fun stripe cardi 404) I used 7 different novelty yarns, all different weights. They average themselves out to be a nice loose fabric. Tension is not too important as you are knitting...

Summer time! Beach babe wear. This is a VERY fast project. One to take to the beach to do. You do need a little crochet knowledge, but the pattern has it written out. Any bulky weight yarn in a summery fibre will work. There are some spectacular novelties that would be a knockout!

For experienced knitters, only because of the decreases in lace. I have carefully written the instructions on how to do that, step by step. It is very fast and effective in the hand paint yarn. This style fits many sizes and shapes, and can be worn tight as a sweater, or loose as a jacket.

Let your stitches run down the front of your knitting on purpose! I double stranded sport weight yarn. You could use single strand of aran weight yarn or two different sport weight yarns. This was fast and fun. The stitches are secured on either side of the “run” with inc/dec. Not as see-through as you may imagine. written in 5 sizes:32-48”.

This a must have for either the East coast or Muskoka. A fast knit with a very bulky yarn. Or you can double up two chunkys,(double the yardage). The seed stitch is easy to follow. The raglan shaping is done all together with a simple cable. A classic jacket to wear forever. Comes in 6 sizes: 36-56”.

Sultry summer days call for slinky knits. This will make up great in any drapey yarn. I used a thin ribbon yarn, but I think a thin mohair might also be effective, or some of the new cellulose fibres. Knit on the bias, for the swag. Easy, but not fast. Done in 6 sizes; 32-52”.

A very good pattern to have in your inventory. This can be tweaked many ways. Very easy, as the pattern is written virtually row for row. The actual fit is determined by how tight you tie the wrap. Lots of yarns would fit this pattern, as long as its close to worsted weight or aran. Worked sideways, this is a great way to use variegated or hand...

EASY! FAST! Pair can be done in one evening, with experience. These are pretty big mitts, for adult size.

I love this pattern! I used 15-20 different LEFTOVERS! 1 or 2 balls of each colour, sometimes only enough for a few rows. BUT, Noro yarn or any self striping yarn would be equally spectacular. This was fun to knit. Not fast by my standards, but very entertaining. The collar is folded and hemmed to the inside to create a facing. Most of the yarn...

Want something different? This is a different sort of pullover. In the round, ribbed, with a ruched yoke. I love superwash fine merino for this style. Very elastic, with high stitch definition. The pattern has detailed photos of the ruching process and 5 sizes; 34-52 1/2”. Not for beginners, but not too hard for experienced knitters.

Going out for cocktails? Whip this one up. Fast and easy. Any light worsted main (MC) yarn will work, and any sparkly contrast (CC) yarn will do. 6 sizes:32-52”.

High fashion beginner project. The only thing easier would be a square! You need a slinky furry yarn, mine had some sparkle. It’s knit cuff to cuff. It looks like a scarf until you put it on.

For party girls! This fast and easy pattern is available in 6 sizes: 32-52” Any light worsted weight yarn for body and any sparkly yarn for straps and embroidery. The embroidery is well illustrated in pattern, but you are encouraged to do your own thing!

If you love novelty yarns so much you buy one of everything, then this is for you. Sale bins are my weakness. Try to buy in one or two colour ways and you can make gorgeous knits! Just have enough total yardage, and stripe 2 rows each. The pattern is knit sideways, so gauge is not too important. (see also Fun stripe top 306) There are 4 sizes i...

For the DIVA in us. This pattern is easy to do and can use any wide ribbon yarn. Would be amazing in hand dye. The DK ribbed waist band determines the size. A great pattern if you live in warmer climates.

A beautiful topper for a formal dress. Or just a fashionable addition to any outfit. Very easy. The only challenge is the lace weight yarn, with BIG needles. Make sure they are “sharp”.

Easy, fast, (sexy). A low cut (or you can sew it up) v neck top, also v in the back. Done in a wide ribbon yarn. Only the most basic knitting skills required. Bead fringe trim optonal, purchased at local fabric store. pattern in 4 sizes: 36-48”.

Another great party top. Easy and fun! Any light worsted yarn will work for the back and bottom front. Any sparkly metallic that drapes, for the cowl.
