Want to make a handmade gift but don't have months to work on it? Whip up one of these hand-embroidered cuties! Each one takes less than an hour to stitch up and the results are so sweet. Each little kitty has loads of personality and is easy and fun to stitch. This listing includes patterns for all four cats shown - plus two additional cats. There's a complete color and stitch guide for the cats shown on the patter cover, or you can customize the colors to look like your own cat. :-) Make one for a friend - and one for yourself! The images are small enough to frame in pendants - wear your best friend with you wherever you go. :-) They also frame up well in a 3" wooden hoop (seen in the second photo). Or you can enlarge any of the patterns to stitch on T-shirts, blankets, tote bags, and more! You've never embroidered a single stitch before? No worries. The pattern only uses the most basic stitches, and it has links to free video tutorials to teach you how to do them. I teach these stitches to kids as young as six - I promise anyone can learn them. :-) You'll receive a link to download your pattern as soon as payment is received. Delivery at the speed of light!

There was a time when I was so inspired by my grandmother’s knitting that I decided to give it a shot and follow in her footsteps. I was going to become a crochet grandmaster and I’d never have to buy a scarf or a pair of socks ever again! After all, I’d make the coolest patterns this side of the Atlantic and everyone would be super jealous. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that I quickly gave up my lofty aspirations when I realized just how bad at everything I really was. And, sadly, I wasn’t willing to put in the time and effort to get better.

Ever wanted to knit a traditional colorwork sweater, but steeking put you off? Say hello to Little Crystals. Get the traditional look, with a modern seamless construction. Construction: This English tailored modified drop shoulder garment is worked from the top down seamlessly. The shoulders are carefully shaped to end above the bicep for all sizes. The pattern starts by shaping the upper back, then stitches are picked up and knit for the fronts. The fronts are joined after the neckline shaping is complete, the armholes are shaped, and then the piece is joined in the round. Once the body is finished stitches are picked up for the sleeves and the sleeves are knit in the round. Most of the colorwork is done in the round, but there is a small portion of colorwork on the fronts and the back that is worked flat. The colorwork for each size is fully charted. This pattern has been professionally tech edited by Hannah Middleton (Works of Our Hands), and test knitted. Included: -Main pattern PDF -At least 5 bust dart options per size -Illustrated construction overview -Links to video tutorials and explanations of special techniques, including one for how to work fair isle without a jog -Tips for colorwork, and recommendations on where to switch color dominance -Chart for swatch Sizing: 10 sizes graded to fit a full bust of 30” to 66” / 75 cm to 165 cm. Full bust circumference: 36.5”, 42.75”, 45.75”, (48.75”, 54.75”, 58”) {61”, 67”, 70”, 73.25”} / 91.5 cm, 106.5 cm, 114.5 cm, (122 cm, 137 cm, 145 cm) {152.5 cm, 167.5 cm, 175 cm, 183 cm} Little Crystals is meant to be oversized, super cozy, with long roomy sleeves with loose cuffs. I recommend 6-8” / 15-20 cm of positive ease at the bust. For better fit consider choosing the size graded for your Upper Chest measurement. See the schematic and size chart in the photos. Samples are size 2 worn by Céline with ~7.5” / 19 cm of positive ease, and by Pierre-Yves with 4.75” / 12 cm of positive ease. The shoulder is graded to drop 2.5” / 6.5 cm past the shoulder tip, accounting for the weight of the sleeves. Please note that Superwash yarn will stretch more and result in a bigger drop (see blue Cascade 220 Superwash sample vs. the ginger Cascade 220 sample). If you have broad shoulders you may wish to size up to achieve the intended shoulder fit. The large motif is uninterrupted at the bicep, so several sizes share bicep circumferences. In most sizes the lower arm is then gently tapered to the wrist. Little Crystals has oversized, cozy, and super long sleeves, but that may not be your preference. A few test knitters added additional shaping to the wrist, and/or shortened the sleeves to suit their preferences. I highly recommend using the schematic to help you decide if you’d like to make modifications. Gauge: 21 stitches and 24 rows in 4” / 10 cm in Colorwork on (Colorwork) needles, after blocking. See the recommended swatch chart in photos. Needles: (Stockinette) US 7 / 4.5 mm circular needles, or size needed to obtain stitch gauge after blocking. (Colorwork) US 8 / 5.0 mm circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge after blocking. (Ribbing) US 4 / 3.5 mm circular needles for the ribbing. A few stitch markers (including some removable ones), darning needle, scissors, waste yarn or extra cables for putting stitches on hold. Yardage: Cascade 220 (220 yards / 200 meters per 100 g), 100% Wool, or comparable worsted weight yarn. MC (Natural): 4, 5, 5, (5, 6, 6) {6, 7, 7, 7} skeins OR 865, 933, 978, (1073, 1141, 1180) {1278, 1346, 1449, 1483} yards / 787, 858, 889, (976, 1038, 1072) {1162, 1224, 1317, 1348} meters. CC (Ginger): 2, 2, 2, (3, 3, 3) {3, 3, 3, 3} skeins OR 375, 405, 419, (458, 485, 506) {546, 573, 613, 634} yards / 341, 369, 381, (417, 441, 460) {496, 521, 558, 576} meters. As with all my size inclusive garment patterns, you can use the code ANTIFATTAX to get 20% off the pattern, intended for sizes 6-10 to help combat the extra costs incurred by knitting larger sizes.
