Saturday, Pattern Day #15

If you are knitting or have already knit a pattern that I’m talking about, leave me a comment and I’ll update my post with a link to your version. If you’ve written up a pattern and you want me to link to it, send me an email or leave me a comment and I’ll post it! It makes the list longer and my job easier.
- These Paper Nautilus Shells would be great to keep in a little bowl as a centerpiece or something. They’re quite pretty.
- These Earl Grey Socks completely escaped my attention, but I’ve gotten to them now, have no fear.
- The Colleen Stocking looks a little tight to fit presents and a little loose to wear, but the cable along the side is really pretty so the chart might be useful.
- The Best Friend Cardigan from Twinkle’s Big City Knits is now available for free from Canadian Living. And what’s more, this version has yarn substitution recommendations! See, it only took a few canucks to put Wenlan Chia in her place and force her to offer some patterns in other yarns. Finally.
- This Burridge Lake Aran Afghan is gorgeous. Just gorgeous. And the photo has been styled nicely, too.
- Man, there’s quite a few popular books that are giving their patterns out for free. Here’s a Mini Cardigan from Fitted Knits by the lovely Stefanie Japel. I really need to buy this book, I adore the patterns.
- Have I posted about these fingerless mitts yet? I LOVE THEM. I want to use this cable everywhere. I also love that it’s offered in both German and English. Germans represent! (Wow, I’m being so multinationalist today.)
- The name “Lace Slant Hat” isn’t the most brilliant, but it’s a delightful hat. So slanty. And lacy. Well, at least it’s appropriately descriptive.
- This Ophelia cardigan looks very Interweave Knits-y.


I’ve been reading your blog for a while, and I just wanted to delurk and say how much I enjoy it, but especially to thank you for these “Pattern Day” posts. I love being taken to things I might not have ever found myself, whether or not I end up making any of it.
