As a pattern designer, your attention to detail and your fashion sense and creativity, are second to none.
Holli is an incredibly talented designer who is as comfortable creating women’s cardigans as baby blankets. Vogue Knitting regularly publishes her innovative twists on the classics.
I love projects … that are relatively simple to execute, but just have that “WOW” factor!
The collection is unbelievable. Exquisite yarns paired with stunning designs. On-trend yet classic.
What I like most … is the little designer details that go into them, the beautiful little touches that make them unique and a joy to knit.

Continuation Blanket
Just three colours yield seven distinct blended hues in this simple but effective gradient blanket. Working up fast with chunky needles, it makes a great baby gift; and in a cozy washable wool blend, it will last long enough to be passed down to the next baby.
The Continuation Blanket is a great canvas to display your LGBTQ+ pride. Included are 16 pride flag colourways with yarn suggestions and a colouring page to plan your own unique blanket.

Old Norwegian Cast On
Also called German Twisted Cast On, this method is based on the Long Tail Cast On and is a great stretchy cast on to have in your repertoire. This is my favourite cast on for cuff down socks.
