Bex Knitty Design

My latest release 'Gift Of Honey Mitts' , are now available in my Ravelry store ' Bex Knitty Design ', on Payhip and shortly also on LoveCrafts.com!    T his is an extremely quick and easy way to achieve either a really striking pair of 2 colour mitts or  a subtle but noticeable of single colour version, and you will only ever be knitting with one colour at  a time and slipping stitches, along with the odd purl row. The pattern gives instructions for 2 sizes  and whilst I chose to make a longer ‘wrist warmer’ length version for my sample you can also  make a shorter version by skipping some of the pattern repeat as indicated in the instructions. As usual with my releases, it will be FREE for the first day or so, which means until end of day (CET - Central European Time) on the 23rd September 2023 and then with 25% off until end of day (CET - Central European Time) on the 29th September 2023 to celebrate the launch!

  Today sees the release of the ' Organised Chaos Set ' , available in my Ravelry store ' Bex Knitty Design ' and shortly also on LoveCrafts.com! This set comprises of a headband and jar/pot/cup cosy full of entwining twisted stitches making for a seemingly chaotic tangled trail, but which is in fact organised into a reflective symmetry of stitches starting with individual columns that tangle and twirl together before separating again.  The headband starts with a provisional cast on and knit flat, through half of a plain back piece, then a central panel of a pattern of crossing twisted stitches, followed by the second half of the plain back piece, which will be joined at the back with the first half back piece once it’s provisional cast on is undone. It can be knit all in one yarn or use up leftovers in a complimentary yarn for the simple back piece. The cosy is knit in the same way with a provisional cast on to be joined later, with a simple half chart repeat i...

Lots of squishy texture and just-one-more-round stripes, all knit up in some of your yummiest shades and you have this highly versatile, handy, fun little knit!   This shoulder hugging Cowl is knit up in soothing striped Moss stitch (2 Rounds of *K1 P1* to BOR followed by 2 Rounds of *P1, K1*) providing texture in heather shades to represent the colours and textures of the moorland landscape that inspired the original pattern (The Moorlands Romance Shawl is also available). After being joined in the round and working a section even, you will then make regular KFB increases to increase width and form a size adjustable shape that will be able to wrap around your shoulders. This takes it from a snuggly cowl to simply wrap around your neck, to a piece that you can pull down over your upper arms, with even extra length added for...
