Finished Object - Travelers Shawl

I recently finished the Traveler's Shawl after a family trip to Bellingham. I figured it was fitting to bring something called the Traveler's Shawl on a mini-vacation!! This shawl is two colors (you want a high contrast!!) and technically it is garter stitch...but to create the micro striping that gives you the tweed look, you work 1 row of your main color then immediately work 1 row of your contrast color before turning and working the backside of your work...pretty crazy right? It's a super fun knit and has enough going on to keep your attention. I used Zen Yarn Garden in Kyanite and Terra Cotta (we are out of the Terra Cotta but will get more in stock!)

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
