Please check back frequently for new patterns . . .
The free patterns include a stole, socks, a poncho, a blanket, three versions of a felted bag for your Denise Interchangeable Needle Kit, and so far, three new Moebius designs. The Moebius designs are a gift to readers of my two Treasuries of Magical Knitting. Knitters will need to refer to one of these books for instructions on starting the Moebius. Over time I hope to add enough new Moebius creations here that it becomes a third little treasury of Moebii for you to explore and enjoy.

This material is based on my years of integrating knitting into a middle school curriculum.

This pattern is a gift to readers of my Magical Knitting books, and you will need to refer to one of them for the Moebius Cast-On. The inspiration for this swan-like tea cozy came to me after returning home from teaching at the legendary Churchmouse Yarns & Teas on Bainbridge Island, near Seattle. The base of the cozy is formed of a five-fold Moebius - instructions for achieving this abundant twisting is in the pattern. Ashford Tekapo yarn can be found online at www.achildsdream.com |

This pattern is a gift to readers of my Magical Knitting books, and you will need to refer to one of them for the Moebius Cast-On. I designed this for my segment on the Knitty Gritty TV show (DIY network), which I'll be filming at the end of October (it will be shown sometime within the following year). The cowl is lacy and beautiful yet oh-so-simple to knit! To see more photos, download the pattern! Fleece Artist yarns can be found online at www.colorsongyarn.com |

It took much longer to name this stole than to knit it, for it seemed there were no words capable of mirroring the sensations of being in its presence. Really! The colors, the sensuous yarns, and the sinuous way the turquoise jewels swim through the pale yellow Alpaca Bouclé stripes . . . but I did finally name it and here it is for you.

This beautiful blanket was knitted to comfort a much loved member of the knitting community on an island far out in Puget Sound, where the waters of Canadian and American islands mingle. The blanket was passed hand to hand in the local shop as neighbors and friends came into knit a row or two. The knitting is simple, with the Fleece Artist yarns making the result look intricate. This is a perfect project for a group of knitters wanting to create something together. Fleece Artist yarn can be found on-line at www.colorsongyarn.com
