Knit Stitch Spotlight: Rib Stitch

October 15, 2019 by Hannah Hynes-Petty Leave a Comment

Hello friends! Welcome to the next installment of Stitch Spotlight. Today we will be talking about rib stitches—1×1 and 2×2.

Schoolyard Pom-Pom Hat Crochet Pattern

Aren’t Octobers wonderful? We took a drive through a local canyon and the timing was perfect for seeing the beautiful fall colors. I love having the option of slippers and scarves in the evening, but also opening the windows in the afternoon and letting in the perfect warm breeze.  It reminds me of the excitement […]

Granny Square Cowl Crochet Pattern

August 15, 2019 by Bethany Dearden Leave a Comment

Hello all! It’s Bethany again, the blogger behind Whistle and Ivy. I was thinking today about how much I am grateful for seasons. Isn’t it wonderful? Just about the time you are fed up with the current temperatures, the world shifts and gives you a lovely change (at least here in Northern Utah). As much […]

In Love with Linen Yarn: Knitting Patterns for Linen Yarn

June 28, 2019 by Hannah Hynes-Petty Leave a Comment

As spring turns to summer and the temperatures rise, I can’t help but to turn my attention to linen yarn. Lovely, lovely linen, so light and airy with a beautiful drape. I’m not quite sure why I associate linen with interesting and modern pattern construction, but the two seem made for each other. Linen achieves […]

Knit Shawls for Warm Weather

June 27, 2019 by Hannah Hynes-Petty Leave a Comment

I’m convinced that shawls are the perfect knit item for spring and early summer. Chilly breeze? Put a shawl on! Sunny afternoon? How about a light silk wrap? Shawls are versatile as they can be styled casual or dressy, in all types of weather. They’re also fun to knit and easily portable. I put together […]

Free Crochet Pattern: Simple Lace Isosceles Shawl

Simple Lace Isosceles Shawl, free crochet pattern by Underground Crafter for Stitch and Unwind

I’m Marie from Underground Crafter and I love making the switch to thinner yarns as the weather warms up. This pattern for a simple, lacy shawl uses an isosceles shape, which, in my opinion, gives you more styling options. You can wear this shawl as a scarf, loop it around your neck (with the ends […]

I’m Marie Segares from Underground Crafter and I’m excited to share another free crochet shawl pattern with you today. As the weather gets warmer, I love to play with crochet lace.
