Lace Scarves & Stoles Elegant and simple, these lightweight dressy scarves and stoles are made in one piece. Using a fine lace-weight yarn and worked on larger needles than you might expect, the knitting goes quickly. And at the finale, there is always a magic moment when the lace is blocked out to show all of its airy beauty.
Beaded Scarves Beautiful fashion scarves with beads! Gorgeous results with minimum effort.
Faroese Shawls The distinctive "butterfly" shaping makes an exceptionally wearable shawl because of the shaped shoulders and elongated ends for optionally tying around the waist.
Triangle Shawls and Other Interesting Shapes Start at the point or center back neckline with just a few stitches while you become familiar with your yarn and the stitch pattern.
Lace Sweaters – GARDEN COLLECTION Dressy short-sleeved classic-fit lace sweaters with flower and plant themes.
Knitted Sweaters – CASUAL WEAR Knitting patterns for sweaters and vests in updated classic styles for casual wear or anytime.
Socks & Sock-Nots You can never have too many comfortable custom-fitted socks and other footwear beauties to adorn your feet!
Wrist Warmers A variety of beaded and knitted lace hand coverings including wristlets, fingerless mittens, and muffatees.
Neck & Up Coverings Knitwear to cover the head and neck in designs from elegantly beaded and lacy to casually classic and comfy. Hats, Smoke Rings, Moebius Loops, Dickeys and Neck Warmers.
Other Goodies Adornments, ornaments, whimsies, toys, personal accessories and home decor. Anything that fits in the "just because" category — after all, not everything we knit has to be a garment to be worn, right?
The Comfort Collection Laura Andersson and Jackie E-S A series of design collaborations between Jackie E-S and Laura Andersson. Chemo hats, comfortable socks, and lapghans for those suffering cancer or anyone in need of some extra tender-loving-care.
The Sock Calendar series Catherine Wingate and Jackie E-S Patterns and a daily journal combined into one book. Includes full color patterns of themed socks for each month of the year. Write-in journal page includes monthly reference calendars for multiple years, lines for daily appointments and reminders, and space for other notes. The Sock Calendar is the original collection, and The Sock Journal is an all-new design collection.
