Last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend the Interweave Knitting Lab in San Mateo, CA. It was so much fun, meeting people and learning new things. I attended three workshops: Basic Brioche, Two-Color Brioche (both with Nancy Marchant), and Roositude Inlay (with Nancy Bush). Here's what I made...

Most of us began our knitting careers with scarves. One of my first "real" projects was a simple garter stitch scarf, which I gave to a friend. She still wears it, almost ten years later. I cringe a tiny bit when I see her in it, but the rest of me is honored that she's loved it all these...

It seems like cowls are everywhere today, in stores and on the needles. I can see why they're popular—they're useful, quick to knit, and they're often one-skein wonders. A knitting trifecta if I've ever seen one. Knitted cowls can be real stash-buster patterns, too. One of my friends...

The Summer 2011 issue of Knitscene featured an article by one of my favorite designers, Stephen West. I just bought his Spectra Scarf pattern, which is a circular scarf knit from a ball of self-striping sock yarn and a coordinating solid sock yarn. One of my knit-night buddies worked it up and it's...

I love the look of bobbles, but I didn't used to be able to stand knitting them. All that turning back and forth, working five stitches into one, It just seems like a pain. The thing about knitting is that some things are a pain, but they're usually worth it (just another instance of knitting...

My favorite scarf! Cashmere goodness in a beautiful color. Lots of knitters stop knitting scarves after they become intermediate knitters—as beginners, we're encouraged to knit scarves to get comfortable with the knit stitch, and we end up with a lot of garter-stitch scarves in our scarf drawer...

T he Basic Entrelac Scarf by Lisa Shroyer Entrelac is a knitting technique that produces a fabric with a woven appearance—tiers of tilting blocks appear to run over and under each other. But the fabric is actually worked all in one piece as a series of interconnecting rectangles. Also called patchwork...

I was flipping through our new special issue Interweave Knits: Weekend , and thinking about how much I usually look forward to knitting on the weekend; "usually" is the key word here, because I've got a project that I'm ready to be finished with. It's a complicated cabled scarf...

First you start with garter stitch scarves, and then you break into stockinette (and learn that the...

When I see an Aran sweater my heart skips a beat. Oh, how I want to knit one of those beautiful, heavily cabled and patterned beauties. I've seen so many variations of the Aran sweater, but one of my favorites is this lovely cardigan jobbie--the Pewter Coat . I'm thinking of making this in the...

Modern Quilt Wrap (yum!) It's true: I hate to knit scarves. I don't know why. I just do. I am thrilled to have other people knit scarves, and in snowy January, I love snuggling up in a sweet little neck-wrap just as much as the next person. However, while I understand intellectually that knitting...
