Crave This! Winter 2014

There's been a wonderful array of pretty knits, patterns, and projects waltzing like sugar plums in my head this winter! Beautiful people making beautiful things -- what a lovely gift!

And so, some lovelies to hold us over until spring:

the projects ♥

The stitch pattern on these sweet mitts evokes snowflakes and sparkly icicles. Plus, the pattern is free, so why not capture some of this simple elegance for yourself?

A cropped cardi is the perfect winter layering piece.

My girly side is all aflutter over over knittingtastic's version of this hat from Pom-Pom Quarterly.

I love the trendy neon stripes adoring this scarf.

the patterns ♥

I'm a huge fan of Ms. Caitlin ffrench, and there's just something so irresistible about bulky lace--especially in the wintertime. I want one of these in every color.

The neutral color palette makes this pair of legwarmers a total classic.

A stunning pinstripe scarf from Purl Soho? Ditto.

Speaking of big, bulky, yummy knits -- check out this crazy accessory by Leethal.

the people ♥

Brooklyn Tweed's Winter '14 collection is here -- and it's a stunner.

Alex Tinsley is pretty much the coolest, and so is her brand-new book Doomsday Knits.

Leave it to Ysolda to come up with a uniquely stylish Mystery KAL.

Finally, have you heard of swants yet?
