Hilde's Corner

Hello, Everyone! 

Jen asked me to write a little bit about patterns I dream of doing or are currently working on. I immediately thought of my current project that I am loving working on! (ok, let's get real - I have lots of things on the needles but I'm talking about the one I am currently ACTUALLY working on!) 




I am working on an open-front cardigan called Abria. The construction is a bit different but it makes it so fun! There is the tiniest bit of lace on the front, which I also love. I am using Rico Light & Long Tweed that Jen has in the store - made of cotton and acrylic and it's so SOFT!!! I couldn't wait to knit a comfy sweater in it. I also love the subtle striping, though the color I chose does not really do this (but I still love it!) I think that's why I am loving this project so much - the combo of a fun pattern and yarn you love can't be beat! The sweater is working up so nice and soft - it's just what I was dreaming of. Once this sweater is done, my next one will be a Norwegian cardigan with the yarn I bought in Norway!! I love sweaters!

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!):  Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here:  Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!
