Free Pattern – Reversible Cables Headband
Get 2 looks from one headband! Wear it one way for 2 cables with a decorative edge. Turn it round the other way and you have 3 cables. Which side is your favorite? The reversible effect is created by working cables on both sides of the work, but the actual cables are simple and work up quickly. This headband can be made to any length.

Free Pattern – Cobblestone Lane
Take a stroll down a winding, cobblestone lane on a crisp spring day, and see what adventures you can find. There's still a bit of a chill in the air, so don't forget your scarf! A chunky, diagonal rib stitch meanders back and forth, broken by bumpy rows of seed stitch. Bold stripes in neutral shades make this a great, unisex design.

Asymmetrical Knit Scarf – Edison Park
By request, Edison Park is the knit version of my Norwood Park pattern, and features the same, asymmetrical, V shape. The lightweight fabric and eyelet edges are equally at home running errands in jeans or dressing up for a party. Wrap it for warmth, or for more dramatic flair, wear it draped over your shoulders with the long, tapered ends hanging down at the back. You can even hang a small charm from the picot at the center! The free pattern includes both written and charted instructions.

Free Pattern – November Skies
November will be here soon, and there's already a brisk chill in the dusky, evening skies. It's time for a cozy new hat! The November Skies hat is soft and warm, and makes a great gift too. It works up quickly and is super stretchy to fit almost everyone. Wear it as a slouchy hat, or turn the brim up for a more snug fit.

Bandkerchief Knit Headband and Kerchief
By request, this is the knit version of my popular, crochet Bandkerchief pattern. Just like the original, this knit headband and kerchief combination looks like a kerchief, but goes on like a headband! Unlike the crochet version, this one is made in worsted-weight yarn.

Free Pattern – Printers Row Mitts
Make a statement in shades of grey! Eye-catching stripes in neutral colors make the Printers Row Mitts a versatile accessory that goes with just about anything. Worked sideways in garter stitch, they are squishy and warm, and stretch to fit a wide variety of hand sizes. Shaping both above and below the thumbs ensures a snug, comfortable fit.

As a child, few things were more magical than a snow day. I still love waking up to a world that's all fluffy and white, under a dusky blue sky.

Free Pattern – Plaid Scarf

She showed us this brilliant way to create a plaid design with a combination of knitting and crochet techniques.

This scarf pattern is much easier to make than it looks, and does not involve complicated colorwork techniques. Each row is a single color, and the columns are worked later. The knitting part of the pattern is available as…
