Arrowhead is a long equilateral pentagonal shaped scarf with bold arrowhead graphics, emphasized by short but intense gradient colorways. Confident beginners will find the pattern simple enough with its paired rhythmic increases and decreases. Knitters of all levels will enjoy watching the colors transition in this meditative project. The end result is an oversized wrap in our soft and lofty merino that you will snuggle into all season long!
For the sample shown here, I’ve paired the gorgeously bright pinks and oranges of Wildflower with Anubis and one of my favorite neutrals, Oyster. Our wild Wildflower not your pick? We love the idea of pairing the dark and light neutrals with pretty much any of our colorful gradients.

Easy striped gradient scarf or wrap for new knitters. The zigzag in this scarf is not quite what you think – it alternates in height and width for a more interesting and fun pattern. Great way to expand your knowledge on how stitch direction can be manipulated to create new shapes and designs.

The Highlands Scarf is inspired by the expansive views of the infinite rolling hills in the Berkshires where I live as well as my memories of travels through the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. That these mountains and valleys were linked a hundred million years ago is no surprise given their similar appearance.
As shown, the scarf calls for 9 minikins with the color sequence listed here first as color name and then starting color end:
Main Color / MC:
1. Aswan (green),
2. Mist (blue),
3. Cloud (light grey),
4. Sobek (black),
5. Oyster (yellow),
6. Damask (tan)
Contrast Color / CC:
1. Canyon (brown),
2. Woodsman (blue/grey),
3. Harvest (brown)
I have chosen minikins that match color from one ball to the next and that also contrast strongly with the stripe colors.
For this pattern, with the short rows all worked in Garter stitch (K every row) you will not need to pick up the wraps as you would with short rows worked in stockinette stitch.

Oscilla has a rhythmic slip stitch repeat which is like a slow wave or oscillation as you work along each round. This is an easy to follow pattern, using only one yarn at a time. Slip stitch (also known as Mosaic Knitting) is when you only work certain stitches on each row or round with your first color, then with your second color, work the slipped stitches on the following round. This create a fairisle look without having to worry about tension issues, and creates a warm and lofty piece. This is suitable for any advanced beginner and up, involving knits, purls and slip stitches with K2tog and Central Double Decreases (explained in pattern).

This gorgeous oversized scarf takes me to the streets of Venice, where one goes on promenade in the late afternoon and takes in the sunset as it bathes the beautiful old Palazzos. Lightweight and long enough to wrap multiple times for warmth or wear loosely as an elegant and decorative wrap. You’ll have as much fun wearing this as you will knitting it!

This cozy cowl is made with two-color brioche in alternating gradient yarns and a stepped columnar pattern. Brioche adds an element of squishiness making this an exceptionally soft and cozy cowl when worked in our US Merino Minikins. Note: Though this is not a difficult project, some familiarity with brioche is required for this pattern.
Curated yarn collections for this project available here.

Stop traffic with this bold graphic! Vice Versa is a semi-circular shawl worked in 2 contrasting minikin colors – seen here in 3 balls each of Aurora and Harvest. This makes a lovely soft shawl that’s easy to style as a multitude of ways as a scarf or if you prefer, use a pin at the neck to create a cape. Knit using a very basic short row repeat (Look Ma! No wraps!) to create a pinhole lace along the center line of each triangle for added decorative effect. This is a perfect pattern to kick back, put on your favorite podcast or movie and enjoy the meditation of the knit stitch. Designed by Tina Whitmore.
