Crashing Waves Scarf – New Pattern Release!

scarfIt’s finally here!  Our Crashing Waves Scarf is inspired by the impressive waves and incredible high tides in the Bay of Fundy between Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Maine.

In order to create the actual image of crashing waves, this pattern is knit from the bottom up instead of from the side across.  Circular needles are used to accommodate the large number of stitches.

May Flowers Shawl

The new May Flowers Shawl pattern has been released! May Flowers Shawl

You can buy it now on Ravelry – no need to be a member to purchase. Add to cart. Show cart.

A lovely floral shawl featuring 4 different floral patterns – 4-petal, 6-petal, 8-petal and 12-petal with a ruffled edging.

This pattern features multiple yarn overs in a row to achieve the larger floral patterns. When working the next WS row after the yarn overs purl every stitch except the 2nd yarn over –knit this stitch instead. These are noted in the instructions. All rows, RS and WS, are listed in this pattern to make remembering these knit stitches easier.
May Flowers DetailPattern is knitted on circular needles to accommodate the large number of stitches.

Gauge is not critical. Any DK yarn will likely work fine. For reference, this pattern is shown in Classic Elite Firefly which achieves 6 sts per inch on US size 5 3.75 mm needles. I highly recommend Classic Elite Firefly for the slight sheen it gives the pattern. It drapes beautifully and really makes for a great shawl.

Wide-Neck Sleeveless Toddler Tunic

toddlerTunicNew Pattern Release!

Our Wide-Neck Sleeveless Toddler Tunic is now available for purchase on Ravelry!

Add to cart. Show cart.

An A-line tunic with a light flare over the tummy and hips; perfect for little ones exploring on warm summer days. Design is pictured in Caron Simply Soft. This is a great project to use those soft variegated yarns found in the big-box stores.

The seed stitch borders keeps the acrylic from rolling and most of those yarns are machine-wash and dryer-safe – great for little ones learning to walk, crawl, explore and generally getting into messes. But any worsted-weight yarn will do providing it fits the gauge. If you want to go with a lighter-weight knit, you could use a lighter yarn and larger needles – just be sure to check your gauge!
