Can you help me name my new hat?! 🧶

I wasn’t up for making little yarn, worsted Bernie mittens but think they are the cutest things! I just finished this quick hat and am writing up the pattern now. Any and all name ideas welcome! 🤔

✨BIG, FURRY Knit Blanket coming in!✨ Have you

✨BIG, FURRY Knit Blanket coming in!✨ Have you tried arm knitting or just knitting with your hands yet?

I’m obsessing over this big furry option for the trendy knit blankets we see everywhere.🧶 It’s so soft, luxurious and cuddly! I’m going to say this is my favorite big yarn option out there because of the cuddle factor. ☁️ This throw works up SOOOO incredibly quickly without needles. You can use needles, but don’t. ☺️ It’s just so fast and simple with your hands!

I went ahead and tried my hand at video again (lol), so there’s a full, step by step video tutorial on YouTube as well as a free pattern on the blog! You can also grab the kit with the Yooge Go For Faux yarn that I used here on @LionBrandYarn for 20% off (today only) using the code JAN20.

I’d love to hear if you’ve tried this method out yet! Feel free to check out my stories where I’ll post more pics of the finished blanket. 🙌

XO,
Jessica

And, it’s live! Introducing the The Winterland Three Stitch Blanket. ❄️ It’s a mouthful, but it’s simple as can be. 🧶 I designed this pattern with new knitters in mind (and knitters who want to get back into knitting)! It’s made with three basic but pretty stitches, including stockinette, seed stitch, and garter stitch. It’s also pretty fun as it uses one skein per one stripe and texture (as to avoid constant color changes and weaving in ends). Per the usual, I went neutral, but you can have so much fun with color on this baby! 🌨Hope you like it, and here’s to turning off the news and picking up yarn. 😆 You guys can also find the kit on @lionbrandyarn.

Sneak peek! ☝️Happy New Year, my friends! 🎉

Sneak peek! ☝️Happy New Year, my friends! 🎉 Do you have a crochet or knitting related New Years resolution? I’m wishing you all the very best as we head into 2021. AND, good riddance 2020 for many reasons (though it’s nice to try and remember the good that came out of this year as well). 💃 Above is a peek at my first pattern that’s coming out in the new year! It’s a goodie if you’ve got a resolution to try knitting, or if you’ve wanted to get back into it. Cheers my friends to 2021! 🥂 XO, Jessica #knitting #knitblanket #cozyseason #knittersofinstagram #handmadeisbest #knittinginspiration #knittingismytherapy #lionbrandyarn #knitpattern #knittingblogger #knittingaddict #makersofig #knits

☝️Sneak peek!✨Chunky, glorious, suuuper cozy blanket complete (and it only takes a day 🙌).

❄️I actually crocheted this baby over a few days whenever I could grab time here and there, but if you must, you COULD whip this out a day. 🕰 It’s a goodie for last minute gift making! AND, being that my daughter just voiced her concern that there still isn’t a single gift under our tree, I feel ya if you’re behind. 😫 🎁

I love the look of the braids, the understated knit-like texture AND how quickly this works up. My plan is to share the full, free pattern later this week! 🤞 🤗 There will also be a kit available on @lionbrandyarn. ❄️

Hope you’re enjoying the holiday making season my friends. 🎅🏻

And...the top 3 cardigans from the blog ☝️this

It’s up! ☝️In case you missed it, the “Haven Pocket Shawl Cardigan” free pattern dropped on the blog (link in bio). ❄️ And it’s as easy as it gets for a legit cardigan!

Inspiration for this goodie came from the popular pocket shawls, with their basic shapes and big comfy pockets. 🌲 And it’s made primarily with the relaxing knit stitch, so you can catch the Hallmark Christmas movies and still make this. 😉 (My hubby just told me that all I want to watch are Christmas movies. And yes, it is true. 🤣)

I used @lionbrandyarn Comfy Cotton which is a fave of mine, because - cotton. ☺️ Have you tried out this yarn yet? Such a great go-to if you like natural fibers like this.

Lastly, the sweater has a forgiving, oversized fit and zero shaping. ❤️

I really hope you enjoy it and I’d love to hear if you make one! 😘

Oh! And you can also find the kit available on the @lionbrandyarn site. Yay! #sponsored

☝️ Sneak peek!✨ A squishy, oversized, garter stitch cardigan is making it’s way to the blog. ❄️ Oh - and there are POCKETS. 🎉

If there were ever a year that we need all things comfortable, cozy and huggable, this is it, right? 🌲 The fun of this sweater is that it is just about as simple as it gets, so just about anyone can make one. 🙌

(I’ll let you know when the free pattern goes live, and you can also watch for the kit to be available on @lionbrandyarn this week.)

In other news, last night I attempted to get a turkey for my little family. 🦃 There were only giants left, so I’m thinking that ham it is this year. And although we won’t be having a “normal” holiday season, I’ve decided that’s even more reason to go all out with Christmas decor. 🎄I’ll share some pics in my stories this coming week. 🤗

Happy Thanksgiving and hugs to each of you! There’s always something to be grateful for in our lives. And I am thankful for you. ❤️

XO,
Jessica
