23 Travelling Companions Shawl

This is intended to be a stash buster. It is a triangular version of The traveling-companion shawl posted as a free download on Ravelry by Karen Strauss of Sea Island Studio Designs. It has progressed beyond the photo shown and I added a lace design which wan't in the original. It is currently on the needles...

22 Simple Neck kerchief

This mini scarf was made using a skein of variegated wool bought from the Spinners and Weavers Guild, Melbourne. The pattern was a simple triangular shawl one, based on 'Little Shells'

21 Summerflies

This shawl is also based on a free Ravelry download called Summerflies by Donna Griffin. The original shawl was a bit small (I wanted a shawl that reached to my waist) so I repeated the two lace sections. It was knitted using a beautiful silky wool (Madil Seta Kid) which was a pleasure to work with.

20 Little Shells Shawlette

This little gem is also a free Ravelry download by Holly Griffin-Weidner. Here is the link to the relevant Ravelry page Little Shells - Free Ravelry download. I knitted it using Debbie Bliss raw silk in green.

19 Variegated green shawlette

This shawlette is loosely based on the 'Holden Shawlette'. I added a crochet border and used a one-off skein of yarn from the 'Spinners and Weavers Guild'

18 Assorted Handwarmers

The handwarmers shown (above) are based on a free pattern on Ravelry.com called 'Emerald green handwarmers'. I preferred mine to be blood red. They are quick and easy to knit - they took me just one evening to do and I have now knitted three pairs.

The handwarmers (below) are also based on a free pattern from Ravelry and are known as Cafe au lait handwarmers. They are toasty warm and absolutely beautiful... 

Cupcake mittlets:

Cupcake mittlets by Shanta Ramachandran - also a Ravelry download and very pretty in pink  and warm too.

17 Holden Shawlette

This shawlette is quick and easy to make. The pattern is by Mindy Wilkes and is available for free on Ravelry
