Clamshell Cowl is inspired by the clamshell pattern, popular in Art Deco art and design in the 1920s and 30s. It is designed to coordinate with the Clamshell Beanie.

If you are using a different yarn to the one suggested, you will need approx 140(170)m in MC and 85(100)m in CC of DK yarn.

The inspiration for this narrow lace shawl design was simply a desire to create an elegant accessory that could drape over the shoulders without covering whatever was worn underneath. It features horizontal panels of a type of Shetland birds-eye lace and a Japanese lace stitch pattern separated and bordered by panels of seed stitch. It is aimed at an intermediate-level knitter, as the lace in the Shetland pattern is worked on both sides. The linen content in the yarn helps maintain the shape of the shawl, and softness against the body is provided by the merino wool.

The placemat design is created from a mosaic stitch pattern, so there is no colorwork or yarn-carrying required!

String of Pearls (Feb 2023) – Payhip
Inspiration for this design comes not from a necklace but from a plant! Looking at pictures of succulents one day, my eyes were drawn to the beautiful String of pearls (Senecio rowleyanus). It’s usually grown as an ornamental vine in a hanging basket, and its trailing stems cascade downwards with attractive rounded leaves that look like pearls. String of pearls is a triangular brioche shawl, worked top down in 3 colors, with simple brioche lace and cables. There are no complicated cast-ons or bind-offs, and shaping and patterning occur only on light color, light side rows, so there are many “resting” rows. This will be a fairly relaxing knit!

My designs are usually inspired by my travels, but over the past two years only armchair travel has been a possibility.

Meaning Lavender in Scottish Gaelic, Lus Na Tùise feature a sweeping faux cable pattern that reminds me of the buds on a stalk of lavender, getting smaller toward the top. The twisted rib gives the mitts a very snug and neat fit and will stretch to fit a wide range of hands, and the pattern comes with two sizes. These mitts are perfect for showing off those special one-of-a-kind skeins to the best advantage.

The tee is a summer top with short and puffed sleeves, and has some positive ease on the body. The tee is knitted from the top down, first worked flat to create the keyhole opening at the back, and later knitted in a round. The sleeves are created with increased raglan stitches, and with 2 extra rounds of stitch increase. How “puffy” the sleeves get depends on the yarn quality. If you want the sleeve to maintain or achieve extra “puff”, sew on elastic bands over each shoulder.

Seed Head Socks (Jul 2020) - PayHip and LoveCrafts
Dip stitches create shapes that are reminiscent of the seed heads that we see growing in the fields and hedgerows in the UK. These Seed Head socks incorporate plenty of these dip stitches to create seed heads that sit on either side of a central, cabled stem. The dip stitches have the added advantage of being a lot of fun to knit, and once you have knitted a couple, they get much quicker to work! I have included a photo tutorial for the Seed Head stitch.

The CALOTTA hat is worked up quickly, satisfying to knit and to wear. Use neutral pastel colors, tonal/ solid or variegated / gradient. The pattern is so addictive, I could not resist to knit two hats in one go!

Landskap (Mar 2020) – Ravelry
This shawl pattern featured in The Little Grey Girl Mystery Gem for March 2020. The inspiration for the project was wool and a rural landscape feeling. I imagined walking across fields and watching newborn lambs explore the world around them, looking over to the next field where crops were sown. Looking at the landscape from above, from a plane or Google Earth, it’s a patchwork of different textures and colours. By using a geometric lace pattern, and using different stitches in the fields, a woolly landscape emerged.

Magic Circles Scarf (Oct 2019) – Just Knots website and Ravelry
I love looking at how shapes fit together and have wanted to create a tessellating circle design for some time. Circular motifs can be tricky to fit together and it is common to find the circular shape becomes slightly distorted when motifs are pieced together, so rather than create motifs that are square or octagonal, I designed cross-shaped infill pieces that protect the shape of the large circles. This pattern was originally written for a blanket, but when I saw the beautiful range of shades available in Eden Cottage Yarns Milburn DK range I knew I had to make a scarf version.
