Happy Holidays to all!<br />
I've been extremely MIA on this blog and thought it's about time I pop back in to say hello.<br />
<br />
Despite much brainstorming I haven't had much time to create/complete any serious knitting projects this season. I started a variety of patterns, but ended up not liking the result and unraveled them before completion. :( I'm sorry for the lack of content on this blog; I hope to rediscover my inspiration soon and post some new patterns in the upcoming months.<br />
<br />
I recently knit a miniature Santa hat for my cactus and thought I'd share the festive photo with you all. I also knit a second miniature hat with a white fold up brim for my friend's pet. <br />

DO <u>NOT</u> BIND OFF.<br />
<br />
Snip the red yarn leaving a 5" tail and thread it on a yarn needle/tapestry needle.Draw the yarn through all the remaining stitches and then remove the knitting needle.<br />
Pull tightly to cinch the top of the hat, knot it up.<br />
Join the two edges of the work together to create the cylindrical shape of the hat. <br />
Weave in any loose ends.<br />
Create a mini pom-pom (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLFCECr2gK4">my how-to tutorial video here</a>) and attach to the top of the hat.<br />
Viola! You're done!<br />

Simply drape it around your neck and over a t-shirt for an effortless style, or wear it as an extra layer for your fall and winter outfits. The scarf is large enough so you can fold over the top or bottom edge of the scarf to create a more layered look. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;">This scarf is simply the fisherman's rib knit with straight needles with the two ends joined together. It's a great project for beginner knitters. Watch the <a href="http://youtu.be/CDXnLazlqWg?list=UUQF7dI35xfBXuc-kRs1-YCQ">video tutorial of how to knit the fisherman's rib here</a>. My scarf ended up being 30 inches in circumference & 12 inches in width. I decided to go with a neutral grey so I could easily pair it with a variety of pieces from my closet.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">* If you cannot find the Bernat Chunky Yarn in the color you like, you may use any yarn that is weight category 6 and calls for a US size 11 needle. I knit from the 'Bernat big ball yarn' and used about 1/2 of the skein (~300 yards). The amount of yarn you need will depend on how tight/loose you want your scarf to hang around your neck. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">The fisherman's rib is a beautiful reversible pattern that looks almost identical to the "brioche" stitch; the two stitches have different patterns, but end up looking very similar once worked up. This stitch is pretty much the cousin of the rib stitch: looking like a wide/stretched out version of the 1x1 rib. It's a great pattern for scarves since it's thick, has a lot of horizontal stretch, and the pattern is reversible. The edges don't curl in and will lay flat, which is nice since this means you don't have to block your piece of work.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">I initially had some trouble learning this stitch because I was getting confused with the K1B (knit one below) stitch. The video tutorials I watched either went super fast, had poor lighting, or they just didn't zoom in close enough to show which loop to go through for the K1B. So I decided to create a <a href="http://youtu.be/CDXnLazlqWg?list=UUQF7dI35xfBXuc-kRs1-YCQ" target="_blank">video tutorial on how to knit the fisherman's rib</a> where I go through the stitches slowly and repeat the instructions multiple times. I hope this will help some of you learn the fisherman's rib! The stitch is very easy once you get the hang of it. Happy knitting!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;">The name of this scarf was inspired by the color yarn I chose to use for this project; although it's referred to as 'grape', the color personally reminds me of Acai berries. The entire scarf is just a 1x1 ribbed pattern, which can simply be completed with the knit and the purl stitch (watch the<a href="http://youtu.be/QMidRRpkr0s"> knit stitch 'how to' tutorial here</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9rYDoywfiY&feature=plcp" style="color: #742777;" target="_blank">purl stitch tutorial here</a>). I chose to use straight needles to create a long rectangular shape (like a regular traditional scarf), then just join the two ends together. Using one full skein (256 yds), the final measurements of my scarf ended up having a circumference of 44 inches and width of 5.75 inches.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;">This cowl/neck warmer is a must have for the winter! Not only is it made with chunky/thick yarn, but it can be folded over to provide double the warmth. This is a very quick knit and perfect for beginner knitters. The entire scarf consists of a 1x1 ribbed pattern which can be completed with the simple knit and purl stitches (watch the<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb7sX9ZQDbA&feature=plcp" style="color: #742777; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank"> knit stitch 'how to' tutorial here</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9rYDoywfiY&feature=plcp" style="color: #742777; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">purl stitch tutorial here</a>). My scarf ended up being about 22 inches in circumference & about 9.5 inches in width. I chose to use a bold red color to contrast the (at times) dreary winter days.</span><br />

<b>About the December Seed Stitch Infinity Circle Scarf: </b><br />
I love infinity circle scarves and I also love knitting with chunky yarn -- so this is probably one of my favorite projects thus far! I decided to go with the seed stitch to give the scarf a textured pattern. This is a great scarf pattern for beginner knitters since it is not only easy/quick to knit with chunky yarn, but the seed stitch can be knit up with just two basic stitches: knit and purl (watch the<a href="http://youtu.be/QMidRRpkr0s"> </a><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank">knit stitch 'how to' tutorial here</a>, and the <a href="http://youtu.be/o9rYDoywfiY" target="_blank">purl stitch tutorial here</a>). <br />
My scarf ended up being about 48 inches in circumference and 6 inches in width, thus allowing it to comfortably wrap around twice and provide ultimate warmth during the winter months.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 16px;">Circle scarves are not only fashionable, but undeniably warm and cozy! This scarf has a simple ribbed pattern that can be knit up with just two stitches: knit and purl (</span>watch the<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb7sX9ZQDbA&feature=plcp" target="_blank"> knit stitch 'how to' tutorial here</a>, and the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9rYDoywfiY&feature=plcp" target="_blank">purl stitch tutorial here</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 16px;">). The yarn I chose to use is a beautiful earth-tone brown, thus, I decided to call this the "Autumn Infinity Circle Scarf". My scarf ended up being about 52 inches in circumference, making it long enough to wrap around twice for some extra warmth ;).</span></span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">About the Jenny From the Block Circle Scarf Pattern:</span> <br />
Circle scarves are definitely a must-have for this winter season! This scarf is extremely simple to knit (you only need one stitch: the knit stitch -- <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb7sX9ZQDbA&feature=channel_video_title" target="_blank">see the knit stitch 'how to' tutorial here</a>). I designed this scarf to have some added texture despite just having one stitch/pattern. Since only the knit stitch is used, the ends will curl in -- creating the look of more layers/different textures even if it's only wrapped around twice. I made this scarf for the one and only <a href="http://beautyrushx3.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jenny</a>! :)<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials I Used:</span><br />
- Lion Brand Hometown USA yarn (color: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042TOIVC/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0042TOIVC&linkCode=as2&tag=belin0a-20" target="_blank">Tampa Spice</a>); 2 skeins (~150 yards)<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Jenny From the Block Circle Scarf Pattern</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">:</span><br />
Using 36'' US 15 circular needles, cast on 95 stitches<br />
<br />
Round 1 : *knit*<br />
Keep knitting in the round until desired size or until you finish the yarn from 2 skeins.<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb-C2SdmPyc&feature=share" target="_blank">Bind off</a>.<br />
<br />
(Be sure you use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of each round so you know when to start binding off.)<br />
<br />
Yes, it really is that simple! Just one stitch: the knit stitch, and you've got your lovely circle scarf!<br />
Have fun and be sure to send me pictures if you decide to give this pattern a try.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">About the Triple-Layer Infinity Circle Scarf:</span> <br />
Circle scarves (aka infinity scarves) are becoming an evermore popular fashion piece. Not only do they look great, but they keep you warm & cozy as well! I designed this scarf to be super warm by measuring it out so it'd be long enough to wrap around the neck 3 times. Keep the cold wind away from your neck with this super warm scarf.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials I used:</span><br />
- Lion Brand Hometown USA yarn (color: Syracuse Orange); 2 skeins (~150 yards)<br />
- <a href="hhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WYZSU6/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B000WYZSU6&linkCode=as2&tag=belin0a-20&linkId=QTUYW6OANY7Y3UYS" target="_blank">36'' circular needles US size 15</a><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Triple-Layer Infinity Circle Scarf</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Pattern</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">:</span><br />
Using 36'' US 15 circular needles, cast on 150 stitches<br />
<br />
Round 1 : *K1, P1*<br />
Round 2 : *P1, K1*<br />
<br />
Repeat the pattern until desired size or until you finish the yarn from 2 skeins.<br />
Bind off.<br />
Yes, it's that easy! It took me a few hours over 3 or 4 days to complete this circle scarf.<br />
<br />
<b>Customize the scarf to fit your own style by</b>:<br />
<ul>
<li>Making it more/less wide. If you cast on an odd number of stitches, the pattern will be: row 1: *K1, P1* and just repeat until desired size.</li>
<li>Use a different pattern</li>
<li>Cast on less stitches so it only wraps around twice.<br />
<br />
</li>
</ul>
Have fun and be sure to send me pictures if you make something similar to mine!<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Abbreviations used in this pattern:</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>K1= knit one stitch<br />
P1 = purl one stitch<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">I don't really have that many different types of knitting needles so I have a simple pouch to hold my straight needles and I keep my circular needles in their original packaging and throw them all in a plastic bag. I keep my circular needles in the original packaging because none of my circular needles have the needle size on the needles themselves; I tried writing the needle size on the needle with permanent market, but it eventually faded. Any suggestions for solutions to my problem? : \</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">About the Cuddle Me Neck Warmer:</span> <br />
Initially I intended on making this a scarf, but I felt like it was too wide and getting way too heavy. All I did was seed stitch until the length was enough to wrap around my neck, bind off, and sew buttons on! I didn't even create button holes because the buttons fit between the stitches. I like that I don't have button holes because I can choose where I want to button my neck warmer to make it tighter or looser each time I wear it. If you want to use larger buttons, you may need to add button holes in your work.<br />
<br />
Neck warmers are great because they keep you so warm but are not as bulky and heavy as scarves. When I wear scarves underneath my jacket, I usually tuck in the ends anyway -- so why not just wear a neck warmer?<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials I used:</span><br />
- Lion Brand <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003D7VKRE/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B003D7VKRE&linkCode=as2&tag=belin0a-20" target="_blank">Wool-Ease Thick & Quick</a> yarn (color: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003D7VKRE/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B003D7VKRE&linkCode=as2&tag=belin0a-20" target="_blank">fisherman</a>); less than 150 yards<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cuddle Me Neck Warmer Pattern</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">:</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Using US 13 needles, cast on 17 stitches</span></span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span>
For each row : *K1, P1*<br />
<br />
Repeat the pattern until it is long enough to wrap loosely around your neck.<br />
Bind off.<br />
Sew on buttons. <br />
<br />
<b>You can easily customize it to fit your own style</b>:<br />
<ul>
<li>You can make it more/less wide. If you cast on an even number of stitches, the pattern will be: row 1: *K1, P1*</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
row 2: *P1, K1*</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> You can use more/less buttons, or different style buttons. If you choose to use larger buttons, you may need to make button holes - so plan in advance!</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Abbreviations used in this pattern:</span><br />
K1= knit one stitch<br />
P1 = purl one stitch<br />
<br />
<br />
There are endless ways to work off of this simple pattern. Be imaginative! <br />
Have fun and send me photos if you make something similar :]<br />

<h2>
<b>Question of the day: </b></h2>
<b>What's a simple pattern you turn to when you are knitting with chunky yarn?</b></div>
<br />
<b> </b>I tried starting a new project multiple times within the last 2 weeks and I ended up knitting a few rows and not liking how the pattern was turning out with the type of yarn/needles I was using.<br />
<br />
After unraveling nearly 6 different incomplete projects, I think I'm going to stick with this simple pattern: the seed stitch!<br />
<br />
I'm using chunky yarn and all the seed stitch is... is <b>*K1, P1* </b>(cast on an odd number of stitches).<br />
<br />
Details and more pictures will be posted once I complete the scarf. I'll also have to think of a more clever name for this scarf. Generally I name it after the person I gift it to -- but I don't decide if I really want to gift it to a particular person until the project is complete. Gotta see the complete piece to judge if the receiver will wear it or not!<br />
<br />
Quick pics of the scarf in-the-making:<br />

I'm still indecisive as to whether I like straight or curly hair when wearing slouchy hats...<br />

<span style="font-size: 130%; font-weight: bold;">** ATTENTION: there is an issue after row 7 on this pattern **</span><span style="font-size: 130%;"><br />I still have to figure out what I did differently. I will post an update when I figure it out. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience >.< </span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br />About the Slight Slouchy Cabled Hat:</span><br />
I tried to make this a slouchy hat, but it didn't quite turn out as slouchy as I anticipated. Nevertheless, I would still wear it! The combination of the yarn I used and the fact that I am a tight knitter resulted in a slightly stiffer feel to the hat. I wish I had used a softer yarn. Perhaps a size 11 needle would have been more appropriate for rows 12 until the decrease. I am still learning!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials I used:</span><br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Slightly Slouchy Cabled Hat pattern:</span><br />
Using US 10 circular needles, cast on 60 stitches<br />
<br />
row 1-6: *K2,P2*<br />
row 7: *KFB, P2*<br />
row 8-10: *K4, P2*<br />
row 11: *C4B, P2*<br />
<br />
row 12-15: *K4, P2*<br />
row 16: *C4B, P2*<br />
<br />
Repeat rows 12-16 an additional 4 times<br />
<br />
Then start decreasing:<br />
row 1: *K1, K2tog, K1, P2*<br />
row 2: *K2tog, K1, P2*<br />
row 3: *K2, P2tog*<br />
row 4: *K2, P1*<br />
row 5: *C2B, P1*<br />
row 6-7: *K2, P1*<br />
row 8: *K2tog*<br />
<br />
<div>
Draw yarn through remaining stitches, remove the circular needles and pull tight.</div>
<div>
( You may feel more comfortable using DPNs toward the last few rows because it gets tight)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Knot it up and weave in any loose ends. All done!</div>

I made this hat for my brother, Rich, for Christmas this year. This was the first "fitted" beanie I tried to make. It took me about 2 days to complete.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials I used:</span><br />
- US size 8 circular needles (16'')<br />
- Lion Brand Yarn: Vanna's Choice (color: navy)<br />
- Red Heart Super Saver Yarn (color: white)<br />

<br /></span>I made it especially for Shoey, so I named it after her! It was a relatively quick knit, I started/finished it in 1 day. This was my first time working with this type of yarn.
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Materials used:</span>
<br />Patons Melody Quick & Cozy (color: bright blue)
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pattern:</span>
<br />Quite honestly I didn’t write down how many increases/decreases I did; so sorry, no pattern for this one. What I do remember is casting on xx stitches and joining in the round and doing a K2, P2 rib for 6 rows, then just using the knit stitch for the rest of the hat.</div><div>
