Free Patterns

I'm at work early and decided to start a post. It will take all day to write but this gives me more time to think.

I love pictures and decided to check out Rowan's website. Here are some patterns that you can download-just click on the name of the garment to get to the Rowan website.

Alder Wrap
In true Kaffe style, this stunning wrap uses our Kidsilk Haze in a riot of Autumnal colours.  Available as a free download, to give a taster of our 50th Magazine.

Cabled Three Quarter Sleeve Sweater
This cable sweater with three quarter length sleeves uses Rowan Revive and was the members exclusive pattern for May 2010.

Pearl
This elegant ladies cardigan uses Wool Cotton. Designed by Kim Hargreaves, it was originally featured in Rowan Knitting Magazine no 32 and is now available to download.
 Mans Rib Sweater
This mans super chunky, ribbed sweater uses Big Wool and was the members exclusive pattern for November 2004.
Soul
This men's chunky knit cardigan uses Rowan Drift and was the members exclusive pattern for January 2011.
Lola Roll Neck
This chunky women's jumper with roll neck uses Rowan Drift and was the members exclusive free pattern for November 2010.
Patti in Felted Tweed
This box pleat jacket was originally featured in the first Studio brochure and is now available to download.

Who knew that there was 29 pages of free patterns? I just went though quickly but will definitely go back again at a more leisurely pace.

I didn't get the ends sewn in on the Mystery Shawl last night so I am going to do it now. Beth and I were asked to write an email with our opinion on something. We wanted to say 'bad idea' but had to sit down and compose a long email. It was one of those where you have to think about it and talk about it for an hour before you write it. After finishing I just wanted to veg so we watched a few episodes of Damages. Okay, four episodes to finish off Season 2.

It is much later. Beth and I went out for dinner and I totally forgot that I hadn't finished my post. All ends are sewn in on the shawl and tomorrow I will block.

Hello Julie,

I would really love to be able to knit the Poncho from the Rowan Winter Drift Brochure. Are you able to share the pattern?

Sincerely

Cristina Visconte

Sorry but that pattern is in a magazine. To get the pattern you have to purchase the magazine.

We can only share free patterns that are on the Rowan website.
