Free for a very limited time: the Kelp Forest Cowl Free for a very limited time: the Kelp Forest Cowl! This is one of my very earliest designs, reimagined in gorgeous yarn from @seachangefibers and tech edited by @techeditor.bluecrabknits. This is for @themarlybird’s 24 Days of Quickies, so once today is over, this pattern goes back to being a paid pattern. Get it free while you can!
All five patterns in the 2025 Golden Honey Sock Cl All five patterns in the 2025 Golden Honey Sock Club are out now! There’s something for everybody here. Whether you are looking for a soothing knit, something with a lot of cables, a project that feels dainty and delicate, or something suited to a newer sock knitter, you’ll find a pattern in here that fits your needs. In order, the patterns are Clinch Cover, Great Big Ballgown, Illustrated Couple, Sentimental Memento, and Billowing Shirtsleeves. The first four are available individually, but the fifth is and always will be a sock club exclusive, and the club itself is a huge savings over buying all of the patterns separately.
