Winter Knits

I create my winter knits out of a variety of fibers. Some are acrylic or acrylic blends that can be machine washed and dried. Others are 100% wool, for improved warmth and that wonderful, traditional feel. Winter knit sets are wonderful gifts for friends and family. Easy to fit, and useful, you can request the color(s) and fiber of your choice.


Regular winter knits are classic designs that I use over and over again. They may be in stock in some colors and sizes. If you prefer something more unique, scroll down to see ideas for custom winter knits.

Scarf & Mittens

A woman sent me a photo of a pair of gloves that she liked. The photo appeared to be from a catalog. She asked if I could come up with a pair of mittens and a matching scarf that would resemble the color patterns on the glove, and this was the result.

Matched Winter Set

This set is really striking. It was a Christmas gift for a 15-year-old girl who chose colors to coordinate with her winter coat. It is 100% acrylic for easy care, so she doesn't have to worry about being extra careful with it.

striped two-sided scarf: black, red, and white

Two-Sided Scarf

This special design was for a snowboarder. It is acrylic, so it can be machine washed and dried as often as such a sport might require. The two layers make it warmer than most acrylic scarves.
