Pattern
This handy little shoulder pouch is knit as a rectangle with a few eyelets, then folded and sewn up the sides. The eyelets and a simple I-cord provide easy closure. The tassels were added because the design just seemed to ask for them. Have fun with this playful project.

Yarn
Lana Grossa’s Riserva, Aran, 70% Organically Grown Bio Cotton, 30% Recycled Polyamide, Eco-Yarn

Organically grown cotton and recycled polyamide are a perfect match for sustainability, and I found Riserva to be the perfect match for Ali. Because it feels so soft in your hands but provides excellent strength and stability for this adorable little drawstring pouch. Plus, the recycled polyamide adds additional softness and a little elasticity.

Pattern
Here is a pattern with four designs in one. Both the tie and complementary pocket square are double knit designs. The CoBaSi blended yarn includes elastic nylon, which results in a very snug stitch pattern when knitted tightly. The results are ideal for double knitting and for creating a tie that can easily be tied without stretching and distortion. The polka dot pattern provides an even attachment between the two layers of stockinette. And the color pairing provides nice options for suits and for casual sport coats. The pocket square is the final fashion touch for the gentleman, or lady, who enjoys just a hint of dandy in their wardrobe.

"This tie is a classic. I love Jim's double-knit pattern. Very well written."
~ Elliott M.

Fingerless gloves are interpreted here in a simple stitch pattern that looks good on both the right and wrong sides, making this accessory reversible. Worked in the round, these gloves feature ribbed bands that can fold back to reveal your fingers or extended for a bit more warmth, and the thumbhole is positioned so that there is no top or bottom to the glove. They can be slipped onto either hand from either end. Can’t get much simpler than that, so why not make a pair for the man or woman in your life and a pair for yourself?

There are many reasons why you’ll love this elegant scarf pattern. The light-weight yarn will feel comfy yet very soft against the neck and chin.

Pattern
When I wanted to create a wrap and scarf that is truly reversible, I searched through my collection of over 200 reversible stitch patterns. Then selected a few that are equally beautiful on both sides. This design uses eight patterns that are mirrored in a sequence from end to end. The result is 16 unique stitches that create a beautiful, entertaining project.

Yarn
Trendsetter’s Basis, Fingering, 75% Cotton, 16% Alpaca, 9% Cashmere

While Basis is 75% cotton, you’re sure to believe it is entirely alpaca and cashmere. It does not feel, look or knit like a yarn that’s mostly cotton. The blended strand of alpaca and cashmere is wrapped in micro thin strands of cotton, which leave a glow of ultra-soft coziness.

Lana Grossa’s Solo Lino, Sport, 80% recycled linen, 20%, Eco-yarn, Eco-yarn

This choice of yarn is equally unique because it doesn’t have the stiffness of linen yarn. Instead its delightfully silky. And it is environmentally friendly, so it feels twice as good.

Pattern
This yarn is the result of an international love affair between a colorful German and an elegant Peruvian. Worked in the fisherman’s rib stitch, you have all the nice benefits of brioche-style knitting but in a simple, loveable 2-row repeat. Each of the nine colorways results in a cowl that is both beautiful and very cozy.

Yarn
Schoppel’s Zauberball Crazy, Sport/Fingering, 75% Superwash Merino Wool, 25% Nuylon

Zauberball Crazy and Sueño DK are a perfect couple. Each of the dual plies of Zauberball Crazy are dyed in distinctive variegations before being twisted together. The color blending is seductive.

The Sutton Scarf is a delight for many reasons. The large grid of 2 patterns is actually the front and back of the same stitch. So, you have a reversible scarf without a “wrong” side. It looks great no matter how you choose to wear it. The simple combination of knit, purl and slip stitches produce a subtle yet distinctive scarf. Enjoy the two soft alpaca and virgin wool blend against your neck and the clean stitch definition, which is sure to prompt a few compliments. Both will feel very nice.
