If you find an error in a pattern, or if you think it’s hard to read, please let me know! It will help other knitters too, so don’t hesitate to leave me a note or drop me a line at Ravelry. (Positive comments are appreciated too, hah!) If you try one of these patterns, I would also loooove to see pictures. At any point in the process … and it would be fun to see your variations too!
I luv the vine scarf. I have never done lace how hard is this? BE HONEST .
I am just a new intermediate basic sweaters and hats mitts and scarfs and have just completed cables.
Next I think should be some lace with all the lovely soft mohair wools out there.
Can you send the pattern???
Thanks,
Dulaine
Hi Dulaine, I emailed you the pattern … you’ll see it’s really easy! Guess I can write it up in PDF and post here … will do when I get a chance.
I’m working on the plait cable scarf for my friend’s b-day gift but I ran into a snag: Row 4 only accounts for 40 of the 42 stitches. I triple checked it, and this is only my second cable project so it is most likely me missing something but…help?
*P2, K2, CB2, K2, KCB [P2, K2] (12 st + 4 [p2,l2 again] x 2 = 32 st worked) twice* p2, CB2, K2, KCB, P2 = 8 st worked
Total sts worked 32 + 8 = 40
Sorry if this doesn’t make sense.
Ack! Looks as if I missed a K2. The last part of R4 (both the cuff section and the body section) should have a K2:
revised cuff section:
R4: * P2 K2 CB2 K2 KCB [P2 K2] twice * P2 K2 CB2 K2 KCB P2
This holds true for the body section as well:
revised body section:
R4: * P2 K2 CB2 K2 KCB P2 K6 * P2 K2 CB2 K2 KCB P2
I’ll update the PDF as soon as I get a chance, thank you so much for pointing out the error!
Hi,
Thank you for such nice patterns!

lovely vine lace scarf! I added your pattern to ravelry’s database after seeing your pattern knit up in the leprechaun colorway (i have a skein and no idea what i was going to do with it!) Thanks for sharing this for free!

Hi Kathy
Did you have a free pattern called Drooping Elm Leaf Lace Scarf?
I thought my friend had downloaded that pattern from your website, however, I do not see it listed. Perhaps I remember wrong.
Thanks
Sandy
Email I sent to Sandy:
Hi Sandy! I didn’t post a pattern for the Drooping Elm Leaf scarf because I took the stitch pattern directly from Barbara Walker’s “Treasury of Knitting Patterns”. I later discovered that the stitch pattern was also available online at knittingfool.com and mentioned that on Ravelry, maybe that’s where your friend got the info? Anyway, I just checked knittingfool.com and I see that the owner of that site is changing to a subscription model (not everything offered is available for free, some stuff is only visible to subscribers). I’m guessing that this popular stitch pattern has been moved to the subscription area. When I get a chance, I’ll write up what I did to make the Drooping Elm Leaf scarf … it’s by far the most popular item in my Ravelry projects list! Kathy
Very nicely designed Tricorder … nifty, even elegant use of ribbing.
Brava!
Thank you for providing the free pattern for the plait cable mittens. I found your pattern on Ravelry. The mittens knit them up in just a few hours. I used the magic loop method with a single circular needle. The center plait reflects the border on a celtic cable scarf I recently knit. The set was made for a dear friend for a Christmas gift. I look forward to discovering and knitting more of your designs in the future.
I’ve learned that there was a small error in the pattern for the Plait Cable Mittens. I’ve corrected the PDF and updated it here. I’m sorry if this caused incinvenience for anyone!
dont forget the free quaker ribbed (bottom) hat.
Thanks for mentioning it! This page only has patterns that I’ve personally written. But just so people know, the pattern for the Quaker Ribbed Bottom Hat was posted in the comments to one of my posts. It’s here:

Hi there!
I need some help with your Plait Cable Mittens pattern… I’m trying to start it but am so lost on how to do the cuff. I just have no idea what to do. To start it says follow R1 in the Little Plait pattern… but that only says knit 6. Could you clarify how to knit the cuff? THANKS!!!!!
I sent you email clarification, hope it helps!!
