The design is a top down, triangular shawl knit in lace weight yarn. The inspiration for this design has been the acorn lattice stitch pattern with a beautiful raised, grid-like lattice structure. The shawl begins with the garter tab, followed by a plain garter stitch body and ends with the acorn lattice stitch pattern for the border. The stitch pattern is suitable for advanced beginner and intermediate knitters. Knit in lightweight yarn, the shawl makes for a cozy all-weather wear and is bound to become a special one in your wardrobe!

That moment as the sun kisses the horizon and the sky is illuminated in calming shades of pink, gray, ivory and a hint of peach is captured perfectly in this yarn.
Ethereal is the most fitting way to describe this poncho.The incredibly soft and lightweight fabric is knit from side to side, devoid of seams, to mar the incredible beauty of this yarn as it gracefully drapes over the person lucky enough to wear it. For a cold weather version, add the funnel neck, bottom hem rib and sleeves as presented. For a version suitable for those fireside chats at the beach, skip the extras and just go with the flow of the poncho itself. Written to allow you to make changes along the way, this poncho will surely become a wardrobe staple.

Inspired by modern strip quilt patterns, this poncho is worked in stockinette stitch and intarsia colorwork to create a bold and dramatic garment. The poncho evokes a more casual feel when it’s worn traditionally with the point in front. Worn reversed with the draped edge at the neck, the drama intensifies. The poncho is worked flat, overlapped and stitched together.

This beautiful shrug is worked in an easy lace pattern that produces a gorgeous piece that both mother and daughter will enjoy wearing. The shrug is a piece of rectangular knitting that is folded in half. The top and bottom portion of the shrug is worked in garter stitch. For the adult size, stitches will be picked up for cuffs which are worked in 1X1 ribbing. For the child size, the cuffs are worked in garter stitch along with the pattern itself, so there is no picking up stitches later.

This eye-catching wrap features colorful marled circles that are an easy alternative to intarsia colorwork. Here’s how it works: rather than using separate bobbins for each area of color, the main color is carried throughout the entire pattern and is marled together with the contrasting yarn of each circle. The end result is a gorgeous wrap that will be treasured for years to come.
