What a lovely cozy cowl! Knit this quick, easy and go anywhere versatile piece with just one set of Mini-skeins from Bijou Basin Ranch. Available in 5 color sets in our super soft Lhasa Wilderness, yak/bamboo blend, we’re sure you’ll want more than one!!

As I was knitting this cowl, the pretty heathered color paired with the elegant stitch pattern made me think of the beautiful art in the Monstress comic series, so I decided to call this pattern the Lilium Cowl (lilium is a fictitious magical substance that factors heavily into the plot…I won’t bore you with the details!).

A series of triangular motifs grow larger in this fun-to-knit cowl using one skein of Gobi, a luxurious blend of baby camel and mulberry silk from Bijou Basin Ranch. The cowl begins with a wide rib edging followed by 3 sections using charted and written instructions, and finishes with a wide rib edging with a stretchy bind off.

A simple slipped-stitch pattern creates a fun visual element to this slouchy hat.

If you can knit stripes, you can make this hat!

Those tempting bundles of mini skeins can be hard to resist, and this pattern was designed to use up every bit of yarn when you knit the larger-sized cowl.

The hat features two mirrored cables surrounded by garter stitch which are then echoed on each mitt, which has one half of the cable motif from the hat. Both the hat and fingerless gloves can be knit with just two skeins of...

I fell in love with the colorway, Seaglass, when I was visiting Windy Knitty with a friend last month. I chose a simple, easy-to-memorize stitch pattern that would be as soothing as the sea; all the better to show off the stunning colorway, too!

I have 5 - FIVE! - babies to knit for in 2013, so I wanted something that was pretty but not too difficult to knit, so I used knits and purls to create a textured lattice-like pattern.

Gauge isn’t super important on this pattern, as it’s written for handspun and everyone’s is going to be a little different. I used 4 oz. of Kitchen Sink Dyeworks’ Blue-Faced Leicester roving, spun it up and plied it to about 5.5 WPI, and had exactly enough to make this scarf.
