Georgie Cowl & Hat

I have just released a new pattern that is great for those variegated yarns that you have in your stash that don’t want to cooperate with a stitch pattern. It is part of the Malabrigo Quickies program. This quick-to-knit moss stitch cowl and mitts is designed to match the Georgie Hat. The textured stitch makes this an excellent project for variegated yarns and responds well to thick and thin, handspun or single ply yarns like the ever-so-soft Malabrigo Silky Merino.

The three pieces can be worked with 2 skeins of yarn for most sizes and they are great for last minute gift giving. You can dress up your project with unusual buttons to make it fun to wear. This is a great project to showcase those big, unusual buttons that you have in your stash.

Pattern is suitable for the advanced beginner to intermediate knitter, the cowl is knit flat with applied i-cord edging used to form the button holes. The mitts begin flat and are completed in the round. The thumb is worked separately and the cuff is completed with applied i-cord edging to add the button hole. Pattern uses basic knit and purl stitches, i-cord, and simple decreases.

 For a limited time, buy this pattern together with the Georgie Hat and get a 45% discount on the two patterns. You will need to purchase both patterns together to get the discount to work. No coupon code needed.

Mermaid Coin

Here is my latest adventure in stranded colorwork. This faux Fair Isle hat, that almost didn’t have a name, is created using variegated sock yarn along with a coordinating solid. This is a great pattern for that beautiful skein of hand-painted yarn that is uncooperative with most stitch patterns.
