Strand Over Fist

This is a super easy pattern made in a spiral so there is no joining or seaming. I really like the look of the reverse side of the half-double crochet stitch so I designed this pattern to showcase it but it is fully reversible and easily adjustable for length. The pattern is simple enough that it works well for men or women. To make a wider cowl more at the beginning.

A light lacy pair of wrist warmers for spring. The butterfly stitches along the sides provide a place for your thumb, your watch, or neither. Keeps your arms warm in the cool spring breeze or in an over-cooled office. You’ll be amazed at how much these can warm you up! The written pattern includes a chart and step by step photos of the butterfly stitch.

This pattern was created when I tried out lots of “round ripple” and “star-ghans” and experimented with what worked best for me and the yarn I had on hand. This was an attempt to use up lots of scrap yarn that I had laying around, most of it being bulky or heavy worsted weight.

This is a pattern/schematics for a seamless spiral bag. It can be made with any yarn weight and any hook. The pattern is written with a base of 6 rows by 30 stitches but you can easily change that to suit your needs. Enjoy!

I finished these in no more than 5 hours (including designing and taking photos) and they are pretty versatile, easily customizable and essentially seamless. I always have a problem with my sleeves being too short (particularly in the winter) and arm warmers fill the gap perfectly!
