I made these for a young teen girl, in her favorite color, teal. Well, shades of teal…These are a basic mitten, unfinished at the fingertips and thumb-tip. You can find any knit mitten pattern and modify it. I did this in a K4, P2 pattern, adding stitches for the thumb gusset, and working the cable […]

Soulmates 2009
These are felted clog-style slippers I made from a paid pattern from Fiber Trends. Actually, there are two patterns… Adult sizes and child sizes. I wish I could find my pattern pamphlets because I would SOOOO make these again! One pair that I made I rubberized the soles, so I could occasionally go outside with […]
Hat, Booties & Blanket 2011
A co-worker of mine was about to become an auntie for the very first time, and wanted something special for her niece. She asked if I could help with an idea and make something for her to give to her sister for the baby, and this is what we came up with. A knit hat, […]
Knit Stretch Slippers 2013 & 2014
These are the same slippers I always make. These were a friend of mine in South Texas, who says they are just like the ones her mother used to make 50 or more years ago. It is a standing tradition now, that I send her at least one pair of these EVERY Christmas! The first […]
André Cable Scarf 2008
This double-cable scarf was something I created on a whim. I was learning how to do cables in knitting, and decided to see what I could come up with on my own. It turned out so well, I decided to write up the pattern and put it on Ravelry.com and I’ve had good feedback on […]
Knit Stretch Slippers 2008
Slippers I made for my brother T. He is a size 13EEE, so these were probably the largest pair I’ve EVER made! I made these from a pattern I found on the internet, but I had a bit of difficulty with the pattern, so I changed and adapted the pattern just a little. They resemble […]
Baby’s Knit Hooded Poncho 2008
I wish I had the other photos I had taken of this cute poncho without my grandson wearing it. It would show you much better what it looks like. I can tell you my grandson loved it and when I tried to take it off, he kept trying to pull at it to keep it […]
Infant Hat and Booties 2008
This set was made for my sister-in-law’s best friend mine, for her baby boy, Devin. They’ve been friends for so long, that they are family! lol I do not recall what pattern was used for the hat, as it was such a long time ago. However, the booties were adapted from a pattern found on […]
Knit Wool Hats & Mittens 2014
These were made for a couple friends of mine. The gray was for a male adult, the multi-colored was for an adult female. They are made from 100% wool, although they were two different brands. The gray was purchased at Hobby Lobby, and is called “I Love This Wool!” and the color is actually a […]
Knit Hats 2008
Two more hats made in 2008, using the Red Heart “Family of Hats” pattern. The pen in the image is for size/height comparison. The yellow and blue hat is made slightly smaller. I don’t recall what size these were, but the blue and yellow was probably sized for a small toddler. The other was likely […]
Child’s Mittens and Hat (Knit) 2008
These mittens and hats were made for my 4 year old nephew A., and my two year old nephew, M. I do not have a picture of the other hat. The mittens were made using a free pattern from somewhere on the internet! The hats were made using a pattern from Red Heart. The “dummy […]
