Cable Knit Cowl Pattern

Here's the third cowl I added to my Etsy shop. I knit this cowl with a super soft, non-pilling acrylic yarn.  You can purchase the scarf here: https://www.etsy.com/listing

This Cable Knit Cowl Pattern is a great project as Christmas approaches. The scarf can easily be finished in a few days and is a great gift. The pattern involves cabling and a three-needle bind-off. If you aren't familiar with these techniques - don't worry! The pattern includes links to tutorials so you won't get lost. I can finish one of these scarves in 3 or 4 days. If you are determined it could easily be finished in 2 days.

Knit Jumper

Recently finished this wonderful knit sweater.

I used a Drops pattern and made a few adjustments

As for yarn, I used a DK weight cotton.

I would totally recommend this as a "my first sweater" pattern. It was easy. It did take me a few months but there was no confusion with the pattern. My only adjustment was the sleeves. I picked up stitches on the arm hole rather than knitting arms and sewing them in.

Spring Cowl Pattern

Just finished this lovely spring cowl. The color of this yarn immediately caught my eye and three minutes later I was buying five balls of it. (I got it for $2 a ball!)

Here's how I made it:


I used a discontinued yarn - find more info here: http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/jaeger-roma

*double the yarn
*9mm circular needles
*Cast on 117 stitches
*Knit until you've used all five balls
*Cast off using size 10mm needles

I love also love how this yarn feels. It's stretchy and soft- a shame it's discontinued.

Also, I'm wearing some temporary tattoos which I've fallen in love with.

Spiral Cowl

In love with this new pattern - I knit this cowl in one day. As much as I enjoy knitting socks and sweater, I can't resist patterns that only take me a day! 

-cast 119 stitches onto a size 9mm circular needle. 

Row 1:   *K3, P3 (repeat from *) 

It's that easy. 

I love it. 

Simple Cowl

Extra chunky yarn is great for quick projects. I literally knit this cowl in an hour. I used some lovely alpaca Illimani yarn.

For the cowl, I cast 22 stitches onto size 15US needles. I knit until I ran out of my 2 balls of yarn.

Each row, I knit 3 stitches on each side of the cowl. I did two cables (6 stitches each) and purled the 4 stitched in between the two cables.

If you're scared of cables - don't be! They are easy. Really.
