#pattern search

I posted several months ago about trying to track down any and all patterns by Josi Hannon Madera, who was a crochet designer and a friend of mine who died last year.

I just came across this pattern on lovecrafts, which was one of hers I didn't have, so I figured others might like it.

I'm actually working on a skirt pattern from her right now that is not available anywhere else. All her old websites are down, so even the ravelry links are broken. I did find a couple of patterns in my email today too, from way-way back.

hello! do you knit? do you like to give solicited recommendations? do YOU know what wearable to make with ~600yds of worsted malabrigo rios wool yarn?? then boy is this the post for you!!

i was gifted yarn, and i'd like to make one (1) item to fit a tall-ish adult person out of it. i briefly trawled ravelry about it, but nothing there is hugely sparking joy, so i thought i'd turn to this other corner of the internet instead!

i was thinking something poncho-y, or perhaps a shawl that could become a poncho-y thing (or i guess a wrap?? i've never made a wrap). my problem, again, is that i'm tall, and that i ONLY have these three hanks of very pretty yarn, so the 600yd limit is real. i'm not feeling ~scarf~ or ~hat~ or any combination thereof: i want one BIG wearable thing out of this.

i am willing to try patterns with lace elements to maximize my size per yardage (size more important than warmth; i love layers), but i'm absolutely not a Lace Knitter™. willing to try anything once! intermediate skill level currently (i tag things as "my knitting" so you can see what that means lol).

It is a knit pattern and im pretty sure it released last year. It was a triangle shape, kind of longer and narrow. It had a pattern where it looked like a bouquet of flowers alternating with stripes in waves. I think it also had a lace section.

Hi all! 

I’ve been commissioned to make a baby hat. Which normally wouldn’t be an issue but it’s pretty specific and I lost the picture. 

Basically, it’s a baby sized hat with ear flaps, braided tassels hanging from the ear flaps, and little bear ears on top.
