Best Bath Puff

December 21, 2023 by Jen

rose bookmarks

You love those net bath puffs, right? (Also called poufs if you want to be really posh about it.) They’re great for working up lather and daily exfoliating. What they aren’t good at is being washed. Throw them in the washer and they fall apart pretty quickly. Since they aren’t washable, it’s recommended that you […]

Austin Slouchy Stocking Hat

February 21, 2021 by Jen

knit stocking hat

I really love the idea of a stocking hat, but they aren’t the most practical of hats in my climate. I decided to make one with a looser fabric with a bit of a looser fit, hoping to make it just airy enough that I could get more wear out of it. Then Austin got […]

Blogathon Lace Triangle Scarf

September 10, 2010 by Jen

blogathon lace triangle scarf knit pattern

When I was in Europe last year, lacy crocheted scarves were all the rage. They were typically worn bundled up under a coat, making the exact stitch pattern impossible to discern; but that hardly mattered, I could tell it was some kind of lace and they looked great. I imitated the style previously with the […]

Lacy Bowknot Scarf

September 3, 2010 by Jen

lacy bowknot knit scarf

I really need to stop impulse-buying yarn. Once again I had to come up with a plan for one skein, this time a gorgeous ball of silk/wool DK. A yarn this soft and lovely—and expensive—is made to be shown off, and a little scarf/neckwarmer is a great solution. The sparse yardage could be stretched a […]

Fabulous Fibonacci Double-Knit Scarf Pattern

March 12, 2010 by Jen

fibonacci double knit scarf pattern 1

Two techniques combine to make a snuggly warm and lovely scarf! Double knitting creates a double-thick scarf in stockinette stitch on both sides; it’s a great skill that quickly become addictive once mastered, as it blends ease with interesting work. The Fibonacci sequence creates a striking stripe pattern that’s reversed on each side, perfect for […]

Bulky Reversible Cable Braid Scarf

November 20, 2009 by Jen

bulky knit reversible cable braid scarf

This bulky knit scarf is so big and thick it’s almost like a wrap! For a scarf of this size, it’s a relatively quick knit, and it’s super warm. The cable braid is reversible, so it’s exactly the same on both sides. A white scarf is always flattering on any woman, but the pattern works […]

Glitzy Cat’s Paw Lace Wrap

October 30, 2009 by Jen

cat's paw lace knit wrap

At a wedding I attended last spring, it was unseasonably chilly, and I struggled to come up with something warm to wear that was suitably dressy. I noticed a number of lovely wraps and shawls worn by other guests, and resolved to make one for myself for future need. I picked a metallic yarn, which […]

Little Leaves Lace Wrap

October 22, 2009 by Jen

little leaves wrap

Taking advantage of a simple lace stitch is a great way to create an elegant effect that isn’t as difficult at it looks. This 3×3 leaf stitch is easy to work and easy to memorize, and creates a nice, airy lace, made all the more impressive when a lovely yarn is used. Worked in a […]
