Turn an ordinary towel into something extraordinary. Whether for yourself or a gift for someone else, your Spiraling Diamonds Lace-edged Towel will have a special place in the heart and home.

Mix-and-match ensemble of hat, crew socks and fingerless mittens to knit in two colors of DK weight yarn of your choice and size 6/0 seed beads.

Although the colorwork might appear involved, the slip-stitch color knitting is simple because you only need to handle one yarn color at a time. The beads give an added depth of color and look of complexity to an otherwise simple beaded knitting technique.

Easy-to-knit two-color socks with spiraling stripes give the simple tube sock a peppermint twist. No grafting needed for the spiral decrease toes and no heel shaping either! You can make several to keep on hand for unplanned gifts, since the adaptable tube shape fits any foot length.

These delightful fingerless gloves keep wrists and hands warm. The tapered fit, DK weight yarn and an easy-to-read lace stitch pattern make these simple and quick to knit. For symmetry, instructions are provided for making the left and right a mirror of each other.

Let these decorative woven dish towels find there way into your life. Linen is special in a practical way. The naturally anti-bacterial fibers dry quickly, resist mildew and keep germs at bay. Nautical Themes is 57% linen/43% cotton. Ducks in a Row is 55.6% cotton/44.6% linen. Approx 20" x 28".

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!
