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!

Try Again

So someone pointed out to me that it's hardly fair to complain about my failures and not show them.  Evil I tell you, but I can see her point.  There is a certain train wreck [...]

Good News, Bad News

Good News:  It's snowing!  We haven't gotten much snow this winter (apparently it's all gone to the east coast), and I've been feeling cheated. Bad News:  The snow is making my normal laziness reach absolutely [...]

January 10, 2011|

Was there someone in your youth and childhood who would occasionally take a shamelessly sanctimonious tone and say 'virtue is its own reward' when you complained about having to do something?  Yeah.  It never really [...]

Apparently I Just Can’t Knit

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!
