These dozen patterns are my very favorites. They’ll likely stick around for a while (at least until something new comes along and claims one of their spots)!
These patterns share a common theme or technique (in this case, slippers) and will be available for just a few months. Rampant & Notable Nonsense patreon folks get these patterns free!
The before part of the before and after
One of the things I'm trying to show you here is how blocking changes fabric, so let's start out by really looking at the fabric fresh off the needles. This is how it looks flat. [...]
But first, a brief digression…
I thought we were going to dive in to blocking the cowl. But enough people ask what stuff you need for blocking that I wanted to talk about that first. The answer, as with so [...]
Fiber first
When you're deciding how to block something, you need to consider what sort of fiber you're dealing with. Most things you knit with (animal fibers, plant fibers, man made fibers) will benefit from Basic Blocking. [...]
Sometimes you need the fancy version
You know how I say 'blocking is often just getting it wet and smoothing it out?' Yeah. Well. Sometimes it's more than that. There's a fancy version too. And this thing will just absolutely shine [...]
Looking for an earlier pattern?
I have a lot of patterns! But I also tend to get overwhelmed if I have to deal with them all at once. So I’ve picked 12 of my favorites (the Core Collection) that will usually be available. And every few months, I decide on a theme or a technique and make a handful of related patterns (the Rotating Collection) available for a little while (then they go away again). The other patterns are retired and are not generally available. However, because I know some folks will want them, I make many the retired patterns available for a few weeks every November. If you want me to tell you when they’re back, subscribe to the mailing list or patreon, and I’ll be sure to let you know!
