Photo by Carrie Bostick Hoge Hi, Knitters, I am sitting in the airport in Vancouver with a bit of time to kill so I thought I would write a brief post about my latest pattern release. I am proud to announce that the next issue of Carrie Bostick Hoge's Making Magazine is now available for pre-order. Click here to find out more about Making Magazine Issue 2: Fauna! Issue 1 sold out quickly, you can pre-order a copy. The magazine has seventeen knitting patterns but there is so much more like sewing, embroidery, baking and more. My new design that is in the magazine is called Butterfly and Cocoon. The pattern is only available in the print magazine at this time. In March the pattern will be available for download in my Ravelry pattern shop. Click here to find out more information about Butterfly and Cocoon! Click here to see all of the knit projects in Making Magazine: Fauna! The other knit designers include Melanie Berg, Norah Gaughan, Carrie Bostick Hoge, Karen Templer, Ashley Yousling, Mary Jane Mucklestone, Carol Sunday, Cal Patch, Jenny Gordy, Bristol Ivy, Cecily Glowik-McDonald and Beatrice Dahlen. It's quite a line up. Photo by Carrie Bostick Hoge Here is my introduction to the pattern: Late summer into early fall is a completely magical time here in Wisconsin. On my daily hikes through the prairies with grasses towering over my head, and around nearby ponds surrounded by milkweed, the terrain is intoxicating. These natural habitats offer a huge variety of fauna-watching including wild turkeys, deer, chipmunks, herons, cranes, birds galore and my favorite, the butterflies. Oh the butterflies! To see their beautiful, airy wings flitting about in abundance from plant to plant has added so much to my daily excursions. Each walk in the fading heat of the season is a heady experience. Butterfly and Cocoon is a knitted tribute to these beautiful, delicate creatures. The sweet Butterfly and Cocoon are both worked seamlessly from the bottom-up, picking up stitches for the wings and antennae after the body is knitted. This makes for a slick and fun knit. Children will love to tuck the winged friend into its very own cocoon for a rest or nap and take it out again when it’s time to fly! The loop on the top of the cocoon hood is perfect for hanging on a hook, backpack or most definitely on a little finger for toting along on adventures in the wild.

Face detail, wings, and antennae are added after. Cocoon is worked from the bottom up in the round, then bound off at beginning of hood and continued in garter stitch. Top of hood is grafted, with stitches kept live at center of hood to make I-cord loop. Warning: Safety eyes are considered a choking hazard for young children and infants. Embroider eyes if this is a concern. For more information, see: https://makingzine.com/ Photo by Carrie Bostick Hoge This is one of my all-time favorite toy designs. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it. The following photos are my early shots of the Butterfly and Cocoon. I was so excited about the finished design that I had to quickly knit up two more versions! The beautiful Quince & Co. Chickadee yarn never fails. It's so beautiful. Finding four colors to combine is so easy with the Quince colorways. Love the hood with the loop for hooking on a little finger. The entire project is knit from the bottom-up and in one piece. The wings and antennae are picked up and knit on to the body. Click here for the Butterfly and Cocoon project on Ravelry! I am really happy with this one. Going home is always a good feeling. I'll be back soon with more. xo ~ susan

Buy Issue 116 Uncut of Selvedge magazine. At the recent Selvedge Wardrobe Revolution Weekend symposium, the conversation revolved around the concept of value. Scarcity and value were comfortable bedfellows in a pre-industrial society, but today, when we live in a world of abundance, to what and how we assign value is a more challenging question. This quandary accounts in part for the resurgence of craft in the 21st century. Craft skills are rare in contemporary society, so when the evidence of such skills is observed in an object, it gains kudos. It is a win-win if the product also solves an issue of the day, such as the problem of landfills. Benchmark examples include Ashita Singhal of Piawand, who upcycles waste into valuable new products, and Celia Pym, the mother of modern mending, who gives value to throw-away fossil-fibre-derived fast fashion with visible mending. In her article “The Great Uncut," Sarah E. Braddock Clarke highlights wasteful and wasteless pattern cutting and points to non-Western clothing construction as a more conscious approach. Garments which maintain the integrity of the uncut cloth are inherently less wasteful and more flexible than conventional cut-and-sew construction, and this issue considers uncut cloth in its multiple forms, exploring the history and significance of the sari, turban, hijab, and Kashmir shawl. What is Selvedge magazine? Polly Leonard launched Selvedge magazine in 2004 to celebrate our cerebral and sensual addiction to cloth while promoting skilfully made and carefully considered textiles. Every issue features talented makers and their lives and stories. Polly believes the most interesting and evocative textile stories deserve to be shown in the best possible light and has thus created a magazine that is an aesthetically beautiful experience. This magazine is available in PAPER format. If you’re looking for more maker inspiration, check out the latest sewing pattern reviews from the sewing community. We also have a sewing blog to keep you up to date with all the news from the world of sewing.
This is such an unusual pattern; great for a bowling enthusiast or someone interested in a different 1940's look. From a pattern book out of copywrite, this comes with the fair isle knitting instructions and tension details. This pattern has instructions on with sleeves or without, and matching socks. This is a pattern in the English Language only. Not the finished product. Thank you for supporting a small side business that allows me bragging rights to keep my patterns from my Nanna, and share them with the world.
The Pastel Corner Blanket is an easy knitting pattern for those looking for a soft blanket to snuggle all year round. This free knit blanket pattern looks like somebody dipped the corner of the blanket into melted ice cream. The light colors make it a great blanket for kids or as nursery decoration, but it's big enough for a full grown adult to snuggle up under. It is made with the garter stitch, so it's a design that anybody can tackle with little issue. This knit blanket makes a wonderful gift for anybody.
