New Pattern: Soulful Seas Mobius

Categories: Flat Feet pattern

February 15th, 2010 by Karen

Remember a few weeks ago when I posted about a drawing I was doing for my Flat Feet Challenge? Well.. Finally, it is DONE!

That is my darling daughter as the model!

Soulful Seas Mobius!

With only 400 yards, it really limited what I could do besides SOCKS that was fashion forward. The design came to me when I was going through some old files on my computer and I found this old pattern:

I designed this Mobius back in 2004 for the Canadian Publisher, Kustom Krafts when they launched a line of Knit and Crochet. That division is now long gone.. but I have the books to prove it. (For the record… I plan to re introduce this entire book as part of my own line. now)

I used a completely different stitch pattern, but the idea is the same. I dont have a picture of the orginal as a cowl, but in this case the shawl can be doubled around the neck and be worn as a head covering too.

If you haven’t entered the drawing.. make sure you visit this post to enter to receive a FREE COPY of this pattern! Entries will be taken until February 26th!

New Pattern: Savvy Origami Wrap

Categories: pattern

September 2nd, 2009 by Karen

Savvy Origami Wrap was inspired by Great Yarns! best selling pattern, Wrapped in Alpaca. (Great Yarns! is the LYS I teach / work one day a week at)

The original pattern is a Knitted 1×1 Rib pattern. This is my crochet take, using a Middle Eastern Stitch Pattern.

Made with Cascade Yarns Pure Alpaca in Color # 3040, it is perfect for crisp fall and cool winter days!

If you are going to Stitches Midwest September 10-13, 2009, Make sure you stop by the Great Yarns! booth (#300-308) to see the actual model seen here AND to purchase the pattern and yarn to make this great wrap. Until the September 15th, Great Yarns! will be the only place to get the pattern!
