January 2024 FB Winners

We have a WONDERFUL Facebook Group called A Little Knitty Friends where we chat, share funny yarnie things and every month we have a drawing for 4 $10 discount codes for those who enter our contest. To enter you just have to finish it in the month you are entering (all the ends woven in!!!!) It's SO fun to see the things you make (and it's fun when you share the pattern or information about the project)

Here are the January 2024 winners!!!

Susan B - First charity hat of the year done.

Gina P - New slippers for my husband. This is the pattern my grandma always made us.

Lesley S - Finished this baby hat that had been in the time out pile because I spilled a drop of coffee on it. My New Years resolution was to pull out the “Time Outs” and move them along….finishing, ripping out or creating something new! Great news, the coffee stain came out NO PROBLEM (then I wondered why it took me two years). Ripped back a bit since I couldn’t find my pattern and wah La!!!

Susan P - First FO of 2024!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF OUR WINNERS!!

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

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...
