Beautiful variegated hues pop up throughout the textured thick-and-thin yarn stripes featured in this bag. Spaced apart with alternating bands of solid colors, this bottom-up stitched bag features a unique tassel look and is created with a knit cast-on technique while an I-cord finishes the decorative tassels and binds off the bag’s top edge.

Cardigans: cozy. Blazers: polished. Why not combine the two and look put together while still being snuggly and warm? This cardigan features knitted lapels like a blazer, but it’s a bit oversized and bulky to keep you cozy all winter long. Belt the middle for a more work-ready look.

Cavalier is a cozy cabled throw worked in a bulky weight yarn with a stockinette and garter stitch diamond pattern. The cast on and bind off, plus the sides, are worked with I-cord to result in neat, fray-free edges. I-cord is also a great place to hide ends when changing skeins of yarn. Once complete, the start and finish edges are decorated with tassels for additional flair.

It’s all about texture with this pillow. From smooth stockinette stitch, to purl rows, to boucle mixed with purl rows, and then boucle all by itself. Textural relief mixed with some color play, too. And just to give it that final push, add in poms and tassels. Let’s have some fun this fall!

This summer pillow is a fun sampler of various knitting techniques, including seed stitch, stockinette, reverse stockinette, garter stitch, eyelets, and twisted traveling stitches. These techniques combine to create a sandcastle motif on the front of the cushion cover and a seashell motif bordered by wavy lines of eyelets and garter stitch on the back. In addition to featuring a wide variety of textural stitches, this design is also a great opportunity to gain experience at working from charts, because the pattern is fully charted.

Simple, yet colorful, these classic thrummed mittens are worked from the cuff up, on a neutral background, with three alternating shades of colorful thrums. Easy enough for a first-time thrummer, this is a traditional pattern you’ll come back to again and again. Great as a last minute gift, there’s plenty of room for adaptation with this pattern. For a tonal look, work the mittens using shades of the same color for the thrums and background, or go wild with a random assortment of mixed colors! The thrums create a fuzzy lining on the inside which makes these mittens extra cozy.
