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!

Move On

December 14, 2009|

Move on, nothing to see here, keep going, move along. Lots of knitting, and yet not a thing to show.  I've got three, count them three finished pairs of socks and a fourth sock on [...]

Perfectly Normal

December 9, 2009|

I think I'm running out of yarn.  Not in general (perish the thought) but for this particular sock. In this situation, it would be perfectly normal to:  knit 1 full round, rip it out, carefully [...]

Not Empty

December 7, 2009|

Now for some actual knitting.  That empty box over there, the one under "On the Needles?"  It's a lie.  The needles are not empty.  They are, in fact, quite full.  Alas, almost all the current [...]

Progress, Part the Second

December 4, 2009|

So there I was, feeling awfully pleased with myself.  I had made socks, two whole pairs.  They fit.  They were lovely.  I was quickly approaching smug.  You know those lists you see detailing why you [...]

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!
