Late Checkout Sweater

€7.90

The Late Checkout sweater is a laid-back yet sophisticated knit that doesn’t compromise on comfort. It’s the sweater you’ll want to reach for when you want to feel cozy while still looking effortlessly put together. The design keeps it simple, but the magic lies in how you combine your yarns.

The sample is knit with three strands held together (though you can opt for two or four strands), giving you endless possibilities to mix shades and fibers for a one-of-a-kind look. It’s also the perfect chance to breathe new life into those yarns in your stash that you’ve grown tired of—blend them together to create something fresh and exciting!

This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down in Stockinette stitch, featuring dropped shoulders and an oversized fit. The collar, hem, and cuffs are finished with a clean and polished 2 x 2 rib, bound off with the Italian Bind-off for a professional touch.

Daydreamer Cardigan

€7.90

The Daydreamer Cardigan is worked in a sumptuous Half Fisherman’s rib stitch which makes this a luxurious and lightweight piece that you’ll want to wear on repeat. The squishy fabric is both fun and quick to knit. I knitted my first sample in just a week!

The lower body is worked flat while leaving the stitches for the sleeves on hold, and then the sleeves are worked in the round. Stitches are picked up from both front edges separately and worked in double knitting. Lastly stitches are picked up around the neckline for the double folded collar.

Cinema Sweater

€7.90

The Cinema Sweater was born out of a desire (and need) for a really basic and oversized sweater that is relaxing to both knit and wear. I decided to call it the Cinema Sweater, inspired by the Harry Styles song of the same name, and because I feel that this is exactly the kind of sweater that works for a cozy cinema evening, while still being effortlessly chic.The sleeves are extra-long and wide to give the sweater a contemporary look.

The sweater is worked seamlessly top down in Stockinette stitch, so you can adjust the length to your liking. The yoke is shaped by working German Short Rows to raise the back and help give the neckline a nice and flattering fit. The yoke is then worked in the round while working raglan increases. The stitches for the sleeves are put on hold while working the body, and lastly the sleeves are worked in the round one at a time.

In My Stripes Era Balaclava

€5.90

In My Stripes Era Balaclava is knitted top seamlessly using two colors in alternating stripes. It’s a quick and satisfying project that’s great for using up leftover yarns and only takes a few evenings to finish. The beauty of a knitted balaclava is that it keeps both your head and neck warm, and when you don’t need full coverage, you can wear it down as a hood or neckwarmer.

The In My Stripes Era Balaclava is knitted by holding one strand of fingering-weight yarn together with one strand of lace-weight yarn. The samples were knitted by combining one strand of merino with one strand of silk mohair to give the fabric a slight fuzzy sheen and softness. If you prefer, you can also just use one strand of sport or DK-weight yarn and leave out the silk mohair.

Rebel Soul Beanie

€5.90

The Rebel Soul Beanie is a super luxurious beanie worked with a wide brim that folds up twice for extra warmth and softness. The name is an invitation to embrace the inner rebel and go for a color that truly speaks to you, that could either be a bright pop of color to help you nudge yourself out of your color comfort zone. Or, maybe you’re really craving a toned down color in a soft beige or cream but are hesitant because you always choose the same shades for your projects - well this is the time to listen to whatever speaks to your color loving heart and follow that intuition all the way!

The beanie is worked bottom up on 4 mm (US6) needles with one strand of merino together with one strand of silk mohair to give it a subtle fuzzy sheen.

Stay Toasty Scarf

€5.90

The Stay Toasty Scarf is all about texture, style, and—most importantly—keeping you warm. This design features a beautifully structured stitch pattern that is fully reversible, it adds both depth and squishiness to the fabric. The textured stitch pattern reminded me of the classic waffle texture—hence the name! This is the kind of scarf I envision grabbing when I want to layer up for a crisp morning walk, a coffee run, or when I just want to add a little extra something to my outfit.

The scarf is knitted using only knits and purls and you’ll quickly be able to memorize the sequence. The elegant I-cord edges give the scarf a polished finish and the rhythmic stitches make for an engaging yet relaxing knit.

Stay Extra Toasty Scarf

€5.90

The Stay Extra Toasty Scarf is a celebration of comfort and texture. The stitch pattern is fully reversible and inspired by the look of waffles—which also happens to be where the name comes from. It’s double the width of its smaller sister, the Stay Toasty Scarf, making it ideal for wrapping up in style—and perfect for wearing as a cozy hooded scarf, too.

The scarf is worked using only knits and purls, making it both relaxing and engaging to knit up, with a rhythm that’s easy to fall into. The soft structure adds a lovely squishiness to the fabric, while the extra width brings a bit of drama and warmth. Sleek I-cord edges frame the scarf for a polished, timeless finish that elevates the whole piece.
