Patreon Supporters

In March, when we had to close the shop, I started a Patreon page to help keep things afloat (all those bills like water, garbage, sewer, electricity, phone, internet and rent were still staring at me) and to share online classes and other information. It kept me very busy during the closure and my mind busy thinking of new classes and techniques that I could share.

I honestly thought it would be just a couple weeks, then it became obvious it would be longer. When we were allowed to open at a modified level, it was apparent I could not publish content at the rate I was when the shop was closed. I didn't close the group...but changed it over to be a place I could give discount codes and thank our community for their support. At one point I thought about shutting it down completely because I couldn't offer any new content...but after chatting with some supporters I decided to give tons of warnings about the next billing cycle (I understand everyone is experiencing hard times!!!!) and I was shocked by how many continue to support!!!

Each month I award a $5 coupon to donors who give $10, $10 coupon to donors who give $20 and I do a little something different each month for the $50 donors...sometimes free yarn, sometimes codes, etc.

This month I'm offering a SURPRISE free download of our Emma Cowl & Verdite Cowl that were the Slow Yarn Crawl Patterns!!

If you would like to be a Patreon, please click below! You will have access to the free pattern links too (you will need the code that is in Patreon) And if you aren't interested that is SOOO ok...thank you for reading this!!

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!

Chemo Caps - Part 2

The Gia Chemo Cap doesn't have the same sort of story behind it as the Karen Cap , but it was developed with Chemo patients in mind! Please share this pattern with anyone who would like to knit a hat for someone in need! You can download your pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gia-chemo-cap

How are you all doing with holiday gifts? Still need a few to knock out quick-like? I found these cute gifts that I think could work up fast. For the book lovers on your list, I think these cute crocheted chicken bookmarks are hilarious! Crochet Colorful Chicken Bookmark by PurrCraftedDesign . The pattern sells for $4.95 on Ravelry and calls for a sport weight cotton. The shop sells a DK cotton that would also work beautifully for these cuties - Ricorumi Another bookmark pattern is Leaf Bookmark & Garland Motif by Joey Diehl . This pattern is FREE and calls for Worsted weight yarn, so Uptown Worsted would be perfect for this. How about a sweet pocket friend for a child? This one is super basic, called Worry Pet by Blue Fox Paws and is a FREE pattern and uses any gauge yarn! It would be fun to use a textured yarn, or a fuzzy kind, but any yarn works. You can opt to put the ears on or not. We have safety eyes in the shop, too! Do you know someone who uses Airpods and could use a co...
