A New Leaf Beanie


So let's get something straight here...this is ALLLLLLLLLLLL Hilde's fault!!! 

Last week she mentioned in Hilde's corner that the A New Leaf Beanie would be super fun to knit. We just got in a new yarn (which I even mentioned would be awesome for this knit when I introduced the yarn) then I went to bed that night and could NOT get this project out of my head!!!!! I had to knit it immediately and I swear it jumped off my needles!

Please note....the pattern is $8.20 on Ravelry and unfortunately it's not available in the LYS program, so you will have to purchase it yourself and it can't be purchased through the shop. However, with all that said....it is worth it and a super fun knit!!!

Yarn: Be Wool by Universal Yarn (I used 140g of the 200g ball) AND Young and Trendy by Laines Du Nord (I used 50g of the 100g ball) 

This means if you get 2 Be Wool and 1 Young and Trendy you can get 2 hats!

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

Hilde's Corner

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...
