✨Follow Your Arrow Shawl✨Staying true to yours

✨Follow Your Arrow Shawl✨Staying true to yourself can be both comforting and challenging, just like the combination of knitting garter stitch and lace. This shawl is cozy, yet lightweight, and features arrowhead lace and garter ridges. Knit with an alpaca/silk blend yarn for warmth, strength, and shine, just like the characteristics you are made of. Knit your shawl with love, wear it with pride, and let it inspire you to follow your arrow wherever it points.

Designed to make the most of that one special skein of fingering weight yarn you love. The pattern calls for two skeins of Sierra Rose Alpacas Fingering Weight yarn, colorway Orion’s Silver Knight (90% alpaca, 10% silk; 200 yards/182 meters per 56 gram/2 oz skein) used for sample. Or approximately 400 yards/365 meters of a fingering weight alpaca/silk blend yarn.

🧶🏔⛅️ Sierra Skies Cowl ⛅️🏔🧶 My

🧶🏔⛅️ Sierra Skies Cowl ⛅️🏔🧶 My favorite accessory is a cowl, they are the perfect thing to throw on when it’s chilly, and they work with anything you’re wearing. The Sierra Skies Cowl is a perfect canvas for your gradient yarn dreams. This cozy cowl is inspired by the beautiful colorful gradients created every day in the Sierra Nevada skies. It is worked in the round as a long tube, using linen stitch to knit four colors and create a gradient. Once complete, the ends are joined together to form your cowl. Wear on your next adventure under the big blue sky.

❄️🏔Alpine Lakes Beanie🏔❄️ The Sierra

❄️🏔Alpine Lakes Beanie🏔❄️ The Sierra Nevada mountain range is dotted with crystal clear alpine lakes, each of which is surrounded by a panorama of trees and ridgelines. This beanie is perfect for a winter day adventuring around your favorite alpine lake. The colorwork motif features the mirrored reflection where the mountains meets the lake, and is knitted using stranded colorwork in two contrasting colors.

I love knitting this hat, it’s such a quick and satisfying knit that looks like tricky colorwork, but it’s actually so easy! This is a great beginner’s pattern for learning to knit 2 color stranded work. I especially love that you can make a pair with the opposite colors of DK weight yarn. This pair is knit with the kit from @sierrarosealpacas with enough yarn for pompoms too! Swipe to the end to see another sample at @heatheredyarnco made with Silky Wool.

🌲🏔🍂A Walk Through the Woods Cowl 🍂🏔

🌲🏔🍂A Walk Through the Woods Cowl 🍂🏔🌲 This one is for all of my autumn lovers - a cozy cowl inspired by the beautiful colors found on a walk through the woods in the Sierra Nevada mountains. If you love cowls, simple colorwork, and textured stitches, then this is the pattern for you!

Pairing a semi-solid color with a variegated color shows off the dark shades seen in the shadows of the forest floor against the ever-changing seasonal colors displayed in the tree canopy. Wear this cowl on your next walk through the woods.

The cowl is worked in the round as a long tube, using linen stitch to knit the two colors to create an overlapping gradient effect, and then the ends are joined together to form your cowl. While I tend to love neutrals and jewel tones, how fantastic would these gradient stripes look in a bright yarn or speckled neon?

✨DM me for the link to the knitting pattern, available for purchase on Etsy, LoveCrafts, and Ravelry. Kits available at @knitwhitsdoorcounty ✨

Yarn: two skeins of @knittedwit Knitted Wit Sport Weight yarn, (100% Superwash Merino; 380 yards/347 meters per 4 oz/113 gram skein), Colorways Bing Cherry (Main Color) and Autumn Rainbow (Contrast Color) used for sample. Or two skeins of a smooth, multi-plied, sport weight yarn, in MC (semi-solid or solid colorway suggested) and in CC (variegated or speckled colorway suggested), approximately 370 yards/338 meters per skein.
