Free Pattern – Mod Stripes Towel
Funky, fun, and festive, everything about this towel is just a little bit off kilter. The uneven stripes have raised edges that flow in one direction, and the textured wattle stitch is an asymmetrical variation of the V stitch. You can even change the look entirely depending on how you fold it. Show off the bold striping pattern, or fold it in thirds lengthwise and it becomes solid red with a thin decorative border! With so many options to fit any decor, the Mod Stripes Towel makes a unique gift that can be used all year.

Free Pattern – Sleepy Snowman
Shhhh! This sweet little snowman is sleepy. He's had a busy day playing in the freshly fallen snow, and now he's resting, all cozy in his cap and scarf. Add a Sleepy Snowman to your holiday decor, or make one as a gift! He works up quickly, and is great for using up scraps.

Free Pattern – Super Stretchy Leg Warmers
Stay toasty all day with these cozy leg warmers that combine retro fun with a bit of modern style! The ribbed fabric is dense and warm, and the vertical stripes in neutral colors are an attractive accent to a variety of different outfits. They are worked sideways, so only one color is used at a time. As the name suggests, these are also super stretchy and fit a wide range of sizes, which makes them perfect for gifting!

Free Pattern – Non-stop slippers- Baby sizes
These boxy-toe slippers are worked all in one piece, never needing to break the yarn until you’re finished (unless you want to incorporate more colors).
