Soft Cables Moebius knits up quickly and makes a great gift, too. This moebius scarf or wrap is a continuous one-sided surface that is formed from a rectangular piece of knitting. It is simply a loop with a half twist that will rest comfortably folded about your head or neck. The reversible eyelet cable-look stitch pattern gives a soft contour. Best of all, you can use different weights of yarn and make to any size without a lot of pre-planning.

High quality Japanese glass seed beads (a.k.a. round rocailles) by Miyuki in size 8/0 (3 mm diameter). Use this size bead for stringing on fingering weight yarns and for crochet hook method with fine threads like size 8 perle cotton, size 10 crochet thread, and size 5/2 tencel thread or finer.

Beads are packaged in clear zip-top bags for easy handling; no tubes to roll around or tops popping off and spilling beads. Approximately 800 per 20g bag unless otherwise noted (premium beads come in smaller 10g bags; mixes come in 15g bags). You can also optionally purchase a nylon floss threader for stringing beads.

Circular Perspectives Infinity Scarf / Cowl showcases the new Mountain Colors Perspectives yarn kit that includes 5 gradient colors of Crazyfoot yarn. To get maximum enjoyment from Mountain Colors Perspectives yarn, I've designed this pattern to use up almost every bit of all 5 mini-skein colors.

The stitch pattern is a simple, pleasingly reversible, lace to knit in the round. You can wear your creation as a single casually looped long scarf, or double-looped as a snugly cowl.

The ideal pattern for creating your own one-of-a-kind designer shawl with a mix of fancy and/or classic yarns. The shaping is done with a one-row super-easy lace pattern that knits naturally on the diagonal.

Choose any 3 yarns in harmonizing colors and a variety of textures to your liking. Each of the three yarns is knit for one row, then the sequence repeated, thus giving lots of color and textural interaction. Have fun!

Create a statement in lace, and wear it with pizzazz. Slimming chevrons and stylized fleur-de-lis arranged symmetrically in narrow lace bands are knitted from end- to-end in one piece — no grafting or seams to sew! This design is ideal for those who like their scarf ends to match without the hassle of grafting or provisional cast ons.

Knit a bit of fictional history with this 39-star placemat size version of a red, white and blue flag. The lacy feather and fan stripes symbolize the flag waving in the breeze. The 5-pointed stars are created with a nifty combination of knit stitch and simple embroidery.

Note: This Americana pattern is not an actual U.S. flag, nor makes any claims to be. Out of reverence, of course you would want to protect and care for it as you would any of the precious items you knit.
