Knitting Patterns
	Purl in the Pines Poncho Knitting from side to side makes the stripes from this lovely slow striping yarn have a vertical effect. The poncho is simple to make, using just stockinette and seed stitch (“Purl in the Pines Poncho #2” is a longer length, uses 3 balls of Ito, and features additional textured sts. The pattern also includes instructions for a matching cowl). Pattern Details Yarn: Noro Ito Quantity: 2 Needle Size: US 9
	Purl in the Pines Fade This lightweight summer poncho uses sock weight yarn on a large needle, making a lovely airy effect. The simple lace pattern is a 1 row repeat, and all wrong side rows are plain. Knit from side to side, the stripes are vertical in the finished piece. Pattern Details Yarn: Fingering (sock) weight yarn Quantity: 6 – 7 mini skeins plus 550 yds of a main color (OR 3 – 100 gm balls of coordinating colors) Needle Size: US 9
	Making the Fade This super easy top down sweater is knit holding 2 strands of sock yarn together. By only changing out one strand at a time, you get a true graduating color fade. Because it is knit from the top down, you can make the sleeves any length you like. Pattern Details Yarn: Smooshy with Cashmere, or other fingering weight yarn, in graduating colors Quantity: 5 colors (1 skein each) Needle Size: US 7 & 9
	Round-About Cowl Using interesting textured stitches, this small shaped cowl is both fun and quick to knit. Pattern Details Yarn: Malabrigo Rios or Mary Gavan Hoodoo DK Quantity: 1 Needle Size: US 7 or 8
	Susan’s Welted Cowl This pattern includes instructions for 4 different weights of yarn, from dk to chunky. Using Silk Garden, you knit at 4 sts to the inch on about a size 9 needle. The cowl features seed stitch borders, and bands of all knit or all purl, which create the “welted” pleats. Pattern Details Yarn: Silk Garden Quantity: 2 Needle Size: US 9
	Reversible Boyfriend Scarf Knit in a combination of garter stitch and ribbing, this cabled scarf in completely reversible. Front cables, back cables, and a braided cable are all used. Pattern Details Yarn: Homestead Tweed Quantity: 2 Needle Size: US 8 or 9
	Flat Lace Mitts No double points are needed for these mitts! Knit flat, they feature an unusual textured lace pattern which resembles Chinese Checkers. The thumbs are picked up and worked with short row shaping. Pattern Details Yarn: Malabrigo Dos Tierras Quantity: 1 Needle Size: US 2 & 4
	Red Writing Hood This loose-fitting hood will NOT wreck your hair! Knit in stockinette with yummy alpaca and a super soft fur-like yarn for the trim, this hood is super easy to knit and scrumptious to wear. Pattern Details Yarn: Baby Alpaca Grande Tweed, Furreal Quantity: 2, 1 Needle Size: US 7 & 10
	Slipper Socks Slipper socks are a great learning tool if you have never made socks. Instead of using sock yarn, size 2 needles, and 64 sts, you use chunky yarn (actually worsted, double stranded), size 10 needles, and 28 sts. If you haven’t made socks, these are a quick way to learn. If you HAVE made socks, everyone in your family will want a pair of these cozy socks! Pattern Details Yarn: Malabrigo Rios Quantity: 2 Needle Size: US 10 dpns

	Susan’s Welcome Blanket Using a slow striping yarn like Seasons, means you are able to work a granny square pattern without having tons of ends to weave in!

With additional yarn and more squares, it’s easy to enlarge (you can get about 4 squares per ball of each yarn). Pattern Details Yarn: Encore Chunky Quantity: 4 each Hook Size: US K
