Just Peachy Ornament Cover

I got a request to teach a class on how to make a bead netted ornament cover. Unfortunately, the boss was unwilling to order in books with an appropriate pattern in them for me to use as a teaching aid. So I came up with this pattern.



Many thanks to Pamy Welborn for helping me with this. It was inspired by, and loosely based on, her Basic Christmas Ornament pattern.

Happy beading!

Franks Little Cables

I wanted to make a pair of chocolate brown socks for my new son-in-law, Frank, for Christmas, preferably with some kind of cable stitch in them. I just love this tiny little twisted stitch cable pattern. It’s super simple to remember, works up very quickly, and doesn’t require cable needles to cross them.

Materials required are 430 yards of fingering weight sock yarn and size 2 or 3 needles.

This pattern is written for knitting in the 2-circular needle method but can easily be converted to other methods. It features a 2 by 2 ribbed cuff, a simple twisted stitch cable pattern in the leg, slip stitch heel, and standard toe shaping.

Sizes: Ladies/Mens Medium

Happy knitting!
