Fiacaill Cardigan Knitting Pattern
£6.00
A gorgeous cardigan with a cosy garter stitch shawl front and pretty smocking details. This cardigan is totally seamless. Fiacaill is knit from the top down, starting at the back shoulders working down to the armpit, we then pick up stitches at the front of the shoulders and work down to the armpit at the front. All stitches are worked down to the hem with the decorative smocking pattern across the middle section, this adds waist-shaping to the cardigan without increasing and decreasing stitches. We pick up stitches around the armholes and work the sleeves down to the cuffs, and pick up stitches around the front for the oversized shawl front.
Fiacaill is named for the Fiacaill Ridge in the Cairngorm Mountains, and is part of a series of knitting patterns based on my travels in the Highlands of Scotland.

Mountain Everlasting Sweater Knitting Pattern
£6.00
A classic fitted sweater with sheer and solid stripes. We alternate between airy, lightweight mohair silk lace yarn used by itself and held together with a buttery soft 4ply blend of merino and silk. This sweater is light as a feather, like wearing a fluffy cloud, but it certainly excels at keeping the chill at bay! You can replace the 4ply yarn with any yarn of this weight, but we really would recommend using a mohair silk blend for the laceweight yarn. This sweater is seamless and knitted from the top down, and the sleeves are worked from picked up stitches around the armhole and shaped with short rows.

Courie In Cardigan Knitting Pattern
£6.00
“Courie in” is a Scottish phrase meaning to “snuggle up” - and it’s the perfect name for this oversized, supremely warm, wrap front cardigan. This is a real winter warmer, ideal for nestling into with a mug of cocoa on a cold day. And it’s so quick to knit! This cardigan has a slightly unusual construction. Sleeves are knitted first from cuff to centre back, then both sleeves are joined with a three needle bind off. Stitches are picked up at the bottom edge from armpit to armpit and worked down to the hem to form the back. Then stitches are picked up round the front to form the garter stitch wrap front. In this new version of the pattern we include instructions for nine sizes to fit busts from 26” to 60” and variations for three-quarter sleeves and a shorter body.
Yarn: Cloudborn Fibers Superwash Merino Bulky in Heather Grey. 5 (6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 18) skeins = 530 (654, 763, 981, 1090, 1308, 1526, 1635, 1880) yards

Extras: Crochet hook for weaving in loose ends, stitch markers.
Epsilon Cardigan Knitting Pattern
£6.00
We all know from school that letters are used to replace “unknown” numbers in Mathematics, but there are actually many conventions about which letters should be used for what purpose. We often use x and y for variables in equations, f for a function, c for a constant term. We use many Greek letters too. Gamma (γ) often denotes a curve, phi (φ) is often used for functions too. The Greek letter epsilon (ε) is almost always reserved for a very, very small unknown number. While it might be tiny it often forms the crux of proofs, especially in the branch of Maths called Analysis. This shrug might be pretty tiny too, but could end up being just as crucial to make a special dress look perfect!
This cropped cardigan is knitted from the top down using a yoked construction. Both charts and written instructions are given for the lace sections. Please check all measurements below before deciding what size to knit and note that this shrug has about 1” negative ease, so if you prefer a looser fit you may wish to go up a size.
Instructions are given for eight sizes: to fit bust 28-30, 32-34, 36-38, 40-42, 44-46, 48-50, 52-54 and 56-58.

Bellahouston Sweater Dress Knitting Pattern
