New Pattern: Knitty Kitty Beanie

Hello there, everyone!

Sorry for such a delay in posting, there’s been a lot going on recently. To make up for it, here’s the pattern I promised!

I think this one is my favorite beanie yet.

It’s another double-knit beanie, this time with a super cute cat pattern on part of it!

All my friends would say that if there’s one thing I love more than crafting, it’s kitties. I’ve got two of my own. My older cat is named Kody and my new kitty is named Nellie.

That’s Kody.

And crazy Nellie.

Sorry bout that…. I show people pictures of my cats the way most people show off their children!

Anyways….

Here’s the link for the pattern!

Just some tinkering….

Hi, all!

This is just a quick post to let you guys know that I’ve just added the Free Patterns page. It’s got all the patterns I’ve posted on here so far as well as links to the official Ravelry pages.

And you might have noticed I’ve messed around a little with the color scheme. I still like a calming blue, but the old look was getting a little boring. I guess I’m just someone who needs change. :)

That’s it for now, look for a new pattern either this weekend (if I have time) or early next week.

~Happy crafting!

Isle of Birds – Official Ravelry Page (And a sneak peek!)

Ok, so I promised that I’d post it later today (which is technically yesterday), but here it is!

The Isle of Birds Beanie Ravelry pattern page is here! Please check out my other patterns too. :)

And now, the sneak peek….. another beanie!

 

I LOVE this hat! I love the colors and, of course, the kitty! This is a pattern I just sort of started fiddling with and ended up really liking. It uses the same techniques as the other beanies but uses a slightly thinner yarn (worsted, not aran) so it’s a completely different feel.

So, as always, keep checking back here because this one will also have a free pattern coming! :)

New Free Pattern – Isle of Birds Hat

It’s finally finished! I’ve taken all the photos I need and have put together a pdf of the pattern for this fabulous hat.

If you didn’t see the previous post about this hat, it’s basically just a simply beanie–but with a twist. It’s double knit all the way through, so it’s completely reversible, and super-duper warm!

I’ve already worn it around campus a few times and it’s kept my ears pretty darn toasty. I also love that it has the two sides, so if I change in mood during the day I can just give it a little flip for a whole new look!

Which side do you guys like better? I think I like the mostly blue one…. but it’s’ hard to decide!

Ok, I know, enough yakking. Here’s the pattern!

My email is crookedcrafts@gmail.com

You can also just leave a comment on this post too!

I’ll be posting the link to the official Ravelry page of this hat later today (along with the next sneak peek…. :D ) so check back soon!

Sneak Peek: New pattern on its way!

So, good news for everyone out there looking for a cool new pattern to knit.

I’ve slightly modified my chevron double knit hat and have turned it into a pretty cool fair-isle beanie. I’ve finished it, and pics of it completed are on the way, but here’s a quick look at some WIP pictures.

 

 

There will be a pattern coming too, hopefully this week!~

And don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about my chevron items. Once I get them re-knitted so that I can include a phototutorial, I’ll post the pattern!

So….. stay tuned~

Free Pattern – Ze Pink Poof

I finally finished a pattern! :)

I’m writing this time to give you guys a free pattern for this big, fluffy cowl I made!

Download (.pdf):  Ze Pink Poof

This thing was both really fun and a hassle to make. It knitted up really quickly, but the yarn kept shedding everywhere!

Please feel free to email me or comment with any corrections, questions, or comments! :)

Photo Update and Sneak Peek: New Free Pattern Coming This Week!

So I finally retrieved my double-knit cowl from my boyfriend’s house and I took come pictures of it to show off!

Side A:

Side B:

Both Sides:

I know there are a couple of mistakes visible on one side, but those are bound to happen! The good thing is that it’s reversible so I can put the mistake side on the inside! I’m working on the pattern, and it should be up soon-ish. 

I’ve got something else in the works too! Here’s a little sneak peek of what I’ve been working on.

I know, I know, I said I’d upload the patterns for the double-knit hat and cowl, but I really need a nice day to take the pictures to do the patterns justice. (And it’s a bitter winter right now where I live!)

In the meantime, I’ll have a new pattern up this week what basically amounts to a giant pink puff-ball. It’s really a cowl/neckwarmer of sorts, but it’s just so darn fluffy (and sheds everywhere)!

I’m done knitting it and the (free!) pattern should be up before the week’s over.

Check back to see more goodies! :)
