I finished the first prototype of my new Double Basket Beanie. Based on Barbara Walker's Double Basket Pattern this beanie is comfortable and squishy.

I'm writing the pattern to be easily sized by adjusting the number of stitch patterns knit.

Next, I'm going to start knitting a medium version in a fun color.

Once I have a small version done and the pattern cleaned up, I hope to get some test knitters to try out the new pattern.

Enjoy!

I love a good project bag, and I wanted a really big project bag for my checkmate sweater. So I dug my sewing machine out of the closet and got to work. Check out my Whiskey Knits large drawstring project bag. Plenty of pockets inside for stuff, and one pocket outside. What do you guys think?

Enjoy!

From Barbara Walker's, A Treasury of Knitting Patterns Vol 1 is the Harlequin Pattern. It doesn't look like much from the accompanying picture, but a) this is a fun knit, b) the resulting texture is robust, and c) the pattern is delightful! Happy with my choice of colors using Berroco Vintage Chunky, colorway 6110 Fondant, and a nice contrasting colorway 6151 Cardinal. Of course, it's only my favorite till the next one.

Enjoy!

I just added my first pattern to Ravelry. The pattern is for a great little beanie using the Basket Weave pattern.

Enjoy!
