Orford Shawl (May 2021) – Payhip

Just like its namesake, the Orford Shawl is romantic, bijou and full of beautiful details. The design combines lace with delicate twisted rib cables to produce a shawl that’s as interesting to knit as it is fun to wear. Designed for a fade set of 5 miniskeins that move from light to dark, the panel and ridge construction lends itself perfectly to playing with colour. A mini skein set of different colours would produce a colourblock shawl, or a single skein of fingering weight yarn would give a more classic look.
Uses Carlisle Fingering mini skein fade set in Thunder

Designed with three sizes in mind; 100g of 4 ply weight yarn for a neat shawlette, 200g for a shawl that’s easy to wear, or 300g for a shawl that almost doubles as a blanket!.

Trinary (Apr 2021) – Knitty

Trinary is a joyful celebration of three crafts and their interplay in lace. In this unusual stole, a lace ripple flows gracefully through knit, crochet and Tunisian crochet. Stripes at the short edges and bias shaping add zing and flair, but are deceptively easy to work. Each section of the stole body looks subtly and intriguingly different from the one before, although the stitches are the same; this is achieved by simply changing the yarn color for a particular technique.
Uses Keld Fingering in Ash, Daffodil and Dianthus

Laetus is a crescent shawl in all-over lace. It uses less than 400 yards of yarn - perfect for that single luxury skein! The delicate points and scallops of the border give way to pretty motifs and subtle texture on the body. The shawl is worked bottom-up without short rows, so there isn’t any serious counting!

The tee is a summer top with short and puffed sleeves, and has some positive ease on the body. The tee is knitted from the top down, first worked flat to create the keyhole opening at the back, and later knitted in a round. The sleeves are created with increased raglan stitches, and with 2 extra rounds of stitch increase. How “puffy” the sleeves get depends on the yarn quality. If you want the sleeve to maintain or achieve extra “puff”, sew on elastic bands over each shoulder.

Seed Head Socks (Jul 2020) - PayHip and LoveCrafts

Dip stitches create shapes that are reminiscent of the seed heads that we see growing in the fields and hedgerows in the UK. These Seed Head socks incorporate plenty of these dip stitches to create seed heads that sit on either side of a central, cabled stem. The dip stitches have the added advantage of being a lot of fun to knit, and once you have knitted a couple, they get much quicker to work! I have included a photo tutorial for the Seed Head stitch.

Landskap (Mar 2020) – Ravelry

This shawl pattern featured in The Little Grey Girl Mystery Gem for March 2020. The inspiration for the project was wool and a rural landscape feeling. I imagined walking across fields and watching newborn lambs explore the world around them, looking over to the next field where crops were sown. Looking at the landscape from above, from a plane or Google Earth, it’s a patchwork of different textures and colours. By using a geometric lace pattern, and using different stitches in the fields, a woolly landscape emerged.

Worked flat before being joined in the round; with a really easy repeat, Solasta is perfect relaxing knitting and will fly off your needles.

Magic Circles Scarf (Oct 2019) – Just Knots website and Ravelry

I love looking at how shapes fit together and have wanted to create a tessellating circle design for some time. Circular motifs can be tricky to fit together and it is common to find the circular shape becomes slightly distorted when motifs are pieced together, so rather than create motifs that are square or octagonal, I designed cross-shaped infill pieces that protect the shape of the large circles. This pattern was originally written for a blanket, but when I saw the beautiful range of shades available in Eden Cottage Yarns Milburn DK range I knew I had to make a scarf version.
Uses Milburn DK in Althaea, Steel, Wicker, Tea Rose, Autumn Fields, Bramble, Harvest Gold, Catmint and Thyme

Marie Curie Socks (Nov 2019) – Ravelry

I’ve been blown away by the generosity of so many knitters, dyers and designers in this wonderful community of ours. Inspired by the superhuman fundraising efforts of Sarah’s Flower Power Fund for Marie Curie, I’ve been thinking for a while about how I could contribute. When Eden Cottage Yarns came out with a special fundraising colourway, that gave me the push I needed to create a design especially for this beautiful yarn. £5 from the sale price of this pattern will be donated to Marie Curie, a charity providing care and support to people with terminal illnesses, and their families.

Uses Hayton 4ply in Heliotrope with a contrasting skein of sock yarn for the large version. The original version uses one single skein of sock yarn plus five 10g mini skeins.

May Loop Scarf (May 2019) – Ravelry

A loop scarf for Spring, this is the May design for Cottars Almanac. Comfortingly simple to knit, but if you choose a delicate, blossom-inspired pastel with a subtle, silky sheen, it has a lightness and sophistication that feels refreshing after the heavier woollens you have loved all winter. A loop scarf is also perfect Spring transition-wear: Worn long it is mainly an accent of colour and texture for warmer days; looped twice around the neck, it keeps out those unexpectedly chill winds on days that look sunnier and warmer from indoors than when you go out.
