The lavender, irises and lilacs in my yard tell the story, I love purple flowers.  So when I saw this gorgeous colorway at my local yarn store, The Unruly Stitch, I knew it just had to become something special to remind me of the beautiful slumbering flowers in my yard over the long cold winter. So with hook in hand, I went to work finding the perfect stitch to compliment the yarn. Since these three plants are able to self-propagate in my yard, I wanted the stitch pattern to do the same as it went row by row growing one stitch repeat at a time as I worked through this gorgeous hand dyed yarn.

From the book Cozy Coastal Knits...

Among the many unexplained wonders of this little island—an afternoon’s sail from Hyannis—is the presence of the shade of pink known as Nantucket Red, found on every manner of clothing in town. Cozy Color Works captured the tonal pink/salmon/red perfectly, reminiscent of a pair of chinos from Murray’s Toggery worn while collecting scallop shells at Brandt Point fresh from the churning blue surf.

The stitch pattern, inspired by my desire to find a fresh take on the traditional knit stocking cap, is a simple four-round repeat, ideal for portable knitting wherever your travels make take you.

An excerpt fro the book Cozy Coastal Knits....
Ah, the age-old dilemma: what to make for a person who prefers to wear a favorite sweatshirt instead of a gorgeous hand-knit cabled sweater? Rather than fight the natural preference for something simple like a sweatshirt, knit a sweater using a sumptuous, refined yarn that will flow effortlessly from the skein over your needles into a sweater shaped like a sweatshirt with a little tailoring to keep it neat.

Worked side to side with minimal purling and then finished in the round, this one is worth having the extra needles on hand. 

An excerpt from the book:
When the wind starts to howl and the skies grow dark on a long summer day, you know there’s something brewing over the horizon. The shadows become more apparent and the water more menacing as a summer storm builds. This colorway reminds me of how a summer storm looks through the lens of a porthole window out in Buzzards Bay.

Love some mindless stockinette for those fun fireside chats with your knitting buddies? Work on the back of this poncho, it's worked side to side.  Need a little challenge and want a little texture? Work on the front panel worked from the bottom up.  Switch out the colors and make a few!



Folks loved the Intracoastal Sunset so we took it north to Newport and designed the Newport Clambake Poncho featuring a set of stripes, on the front and back, to show off your favorite spreckly yarn against a field of tonal. Have fun with it, make it your own, maybe try a few different colors. 

A little excerpt from the book Cozy Coastal Knits about it....
In my travels from shop to shop along the coast, sometimes a particular hand-dyed yarn will simply jump off the shelf at me to bring back a flood of aquatic memories. This was the case the first time I laid eyes upon the deep tonal blues in Cozy Color Works Navy and Deep Sea Blue. Although only a short bike ride from the fabled sailing waters of Long Island Sound made famous by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, these colors took me further north into colder Gilded Age–steeped waters in Narragansett Bay, to a little cove we frequent just outside Newport.

Create your own cozy Atlantic Poncho with this easy knitting pattern. Worked side to side for easy customization this poncho is a delight to wear. The DK yarn can easily be compressed and worn under your favorite puffer jacket or over a light weight jacket when you just want that pop of color and warmth. I wear mine over tank tops and dresses all Summer.

Worked from the center out you can make this poncho larger or smaller, just remember to work the same number of rows for each side so it's even when you seam it up.

Prefer a shawl? No judgement here, just make one and enjoy it.

A little teaser from the book.....
This poncho was born out of the popularity of shawls. My knitting group was talking about how tough it is to wear a shawl in a new and innovative way. Sure, a rectangle can become a shrug or cocoon, but collectively we were stumped by what could be done with a triangle. So, with that in mind, I set out to make a piece of wearable fiber art as simple to make as a shawl while also being easy to just pop on after a workout or over a sundress for entertaining friends for morning coffee. The result: a poncho fashioned out of my most popular shawl pattern with a few little lacy bits to keep it interesting. You’ll enjoy working it with a big ball of cheery colors between fields of “knitmeditation” stockinette



Written to present you with different options, this shawl will do a lot for your wardrobe what ever the weather may bring. Wear it with the hood tucked behind the shawl for a warmer weather look and flip it around to deploy the hood as needed. 

An excerpt from the book....
There is a small inlet near the Cold Spring Harbor Fish Hatchery on the north shore of Long Island, which is one of my favorite spots to sit by the water’s edge and read on a winter day. With a delicious slice of chocolate chip pie on the picnic table and a cup of coffee from Sweetie Pies on Main, I can always catch a refreshing break from the toils of modern life, knitting in hand right here. If your travels cross mine, feel free to bring your project bag along and join me for a few rows over a cup. At this time of the year it’s helpful to have a hood, thus the reason
I created this version of my striped shawl, coupling a self-striping yarn with a superwash DK. This version is more compact than the Ocean Beach Sunset Poncho, just the right size to roll up and tuck behind the seat of my roadster and yes, before you ask, I do drive it with the top down year-round—makes it easier to spot in any parking lot.
