Broken Symmetry Hat

26.10.18

Happy Knitting Everyone! Today I’d like to share my new hat design for Broken Symmetry Hat, which I made for my baby son.

Knitted with sport weight yarn, the Broken Symmetry Hat is a perfect accessory for any autumn/winter wardrobe. It is knitted in the round in combination of stockinette and stripe stitches. The brim of hat is knitted with 2 by 2 ribbing.

The design of hat is simple but a bit challenging. Because these two stitches have a different gauge. To compensate the different gauge, the two pairs of different sizes of circular needles are used at the same time. The pattern has got a photo tutorial for this technique.

Acorn Hat

11.10.18

Happy Knitting Everyone. :))
Autumn is always a busy time for the knitters. You need to prepare yourself and your loved ones for the cold season as well as start thinking about all these presents for coming Christmas and etc. I believe the perfect gift for the knitter is a fancy new knitting pattern. So today I’d like to share my very first hat design for boys – Acorn hat.

Acorn hat is a perfect accessory for your little men. The hat is knitted in the round on circular needles bottom up in stockinette stitch. The brim of hat is started with provisional cast on and decorated with horizontal fold going around.

Although the hat is knitted in stockinette stitch you wouldn’t get bored while working on it because the hat includes a couple of fancy techniques such as provisional cast on, making horizontal fold, knitting with two circular needles and etc.

Sunny Coast Skirt

7.8.18

Hello fellow knitters. I hope you’ve been enjoying the last summer month and keeping yourself busy with your knitting.

Today I am ready to share my latest summer design – Sunny Coast Skirt.
Knitted with Sport/5-ply weight yarn Sunny Coast Skirt is perfect garment for any season.
It can be knitted with both wool yarn for Fall or cotton one for the summer.

My skirt is knitted with Lana Grossa Cotone which is the perfect summer yarn and easy to knit with.
The skirt is knitted in the round seamlessly. Starting with longer circular needles you need to knit wide skirt part, form pleats and then switch to shorter circular needles to continue knitting the skirt yoke.

The knitting pattern is written for nine sizes from baby (9-12 month) through teen (14-15 years).
It is available from my pattern stores:
