Army Ankle Socks: If you've made it out to our Sock Boot Camp workshop, you've done this pattern before. If not, here it is! It uses a medium weight yarn and bigger needles and comes in five sizes. You can whip up a pair of "boot" socks in a weekend.
Basic Beanie: Let's get started with a simple project. Knit a hat, flat, in one of four sizes and then seam up the back. You’ll be done in no time! This beanie uses a chunky yarn and 6.0 mm needles
Cabled Ski Headband: It's quick, it's easy and it's practical! Try a little cabling and practice your garter and rib stitches as well. Customize this headband to any head size simply by working less or more! Use a super bulky yarn like Hand Maiden Flouf for fast results!
Cathy's Endless Possibilities Shawl: There are so many ways to wear this beautiful shawl. The name itself really says it all!
Chicago Bucket Hat: On a spring visit to the windy city, Barb headed to the nearest yarn shop to buy bulky yarn and a pom pom to knit a hat because it was so cold. She likes hats that are long enough to cover her ears and the “bucket hat” with its flat top is a flattering shape that doesn’t crunch your hair.
Cozy Cowl: Practice your pattern and stitch reading skills as you make this fun cowl. Knit in the round. There’s no sewing required—just some optional embellishments!
Easter Bunny Egg Cozy: A pattern to cook up a cute little cozy that keeps a perfectly cooked egg warm!
Easy Slippers: What could be nicer than a pair of slippers as you relax at the end of a long day? Or first thing in the morning along with a cup of tea or coffee? These slippers are easy to make and quick to sew up!
Hat Trick Hockey Socks: Keep your feet warm while you cheer on your team, whether at home or rinkside. We never tire of seeing the patterning that evolves as you knit. Will you get diagonal swirls, helical or horizontal stripes or flashes of colour like lightning bolts?
Newbie Knit Night Scarf/Cowl: Want to learn to knit? Here’s your opportunity. We’ll get you cast on and knitting and if if you’re up for more adventure, we’ll get you purling too!
Quick and Thick-et Hat: a great hat for cold weather. Made with one skein of Hand Maiden Thicket yarn. Knit in the round from the top down.
Rasta Neckwarmer: Make a soft cuddly neck warmer from one skein of Malabrigo Rasta or Hand Maiden Flouf or any other super bulky soft squishy yarn and one great button or toggle closure.
Round and Round We Go! Cowl: experiment with one row stripes to create a beautiful cowl, using small amounts of yarn and big needles. This pattern features helical stripes in the round.
Shibui Ribbed Reversible Cowl: This cosy cowl is knit in the round and can be worn double-layered for extra warmth, or as a short scarf or pulled down over the shoulders as a partial shrug.
Super Stretchy Sport Socks: Cynthia loves to knit socks. Every time a new yarn comes in, she visualizes it as a sock. That's exactly what happened when we got in some fine cotton with an elastic component. The added nylon-elastic content gives cotton what it needs to be a sock: elasticity!
