Men’s Eyelets in Cables Scarf on a Knitting Loom

January 8, 2022 Comments Off

Loom Knit Cables Stitch Men’s Scarf

I’m always happy when a project I made on a large gaugle loom with a single strand of worsted weight yarn looks amazing. Especially if the yarn I used was inexpensive and widely available.

The Eyelets in Cables scraf took me a long time to design and knit. I kept changing my mind, changing the name, changing the cables. At one point I even closed the eyelets. But that’s a story for another day. For now, let me recommend that you give this project a try. It definitely makes for a very classy gift for any member of the family or your friends.

As most of my projects, this one has a step by step, very detailed video. I will take you from the begining to the finishing touches.

Loom Knit Marshmallow Mug Hats Pattern Video and Information

One of my customers on Etsy asked me if I could design a marshmallow mug hat. I had seen them on Instagram but not really considered them. I can’t explain why. Both the mugs and the hats are super cute. But once Donna asked me, my head was turning at the speed of light with ideas.

I wanted to make a hat that would be fun and work for many different occasions and for many different people. I believe there’s nothing better than cupcakes. This particular little hat will work well with the Tiny Doll project, other mugs, other toys and even realy babies.

Like most of my patterns, this one includes a step by step video tutorial.Scroll to the bottom to watch the video.

There is also a written pattern. I want to thank all those that support my work by purchasing the pattern, share my videos and engage on Facebook and other social media. That helps me a lot.

The Tilted Blocks Stitch on a Knitting Loom

The lacy Tilted Blocks stitch pattern is variation on the traditional basket weave. The long eyelets combined with the garter stitch give this fabric high texture and great geometry. It doesn’t curl at all which is another plus. An extra bonus is that the pattern was made using a large gauge loom and a single strand of worsted weight yarn. No special tools or high end yarn yet your have a beautiful fabric that will work well for blankets, shawls and if done in the round, for a great pair of summer socks.

As always I give you a step by step video tutorial you can follow for the flat version of this stitch. Trust me that it looks more complex then it actually is when you watch the video. To use the pattern for your projects in the round you will need the written pattern because the flat version doesn’t translate.

The Loom Knit Button Flower

The Button Flower is an super easy quick project that is actually part of a bigger project I hope to finish soon. I felt that some puffy, simple embelishment was going to be perfect and although I totally love the Rib Stitch Flower I felt I wanted more of a multi-layer option and so here we are with a new pattern.

By the way, like so many of my projects this is a scrap yarn buster, isn’t that just the best thing ever. In fact my scrap yarn bin is getting low this year. Well, I think that’s a great pattern because, guess what … when you use scrap yarn you’re not spending any money.
