Cleared For Take Off

I have another project that I’ve been working on but haven’t shown many pictures.

My Night Lights. I forgot how much I liked knitting it. I also learned a few things. I normally increase with a M1L or M1R. For this you need to do a lifted increase. Andrea has a video that makes the technique easy. 

A new pattern came out on Ravelry today and it is free to download until the end of Monday. I don’t have permission to share pictures but here is the link so you can see it. It’s already in my library and it’ll be a great project for Diana. She has been waiting for me to come up with what I wanted knit for another store sample.

After taking some time away from designing to travel, I wanted to create a project that reflected the ease and joy of the journey itself. This shawl is designed to be simple, soothing, and perfectly portable—the kind of knitting you can pick up on a plane, road trip, or while waiting for your next adventure to begin. 

Cleared For Take Off ✈️ is designed with travel in mind, this soothing shawl is the perfect companion for your journeys near and far. Worked sideways from a tiny corner, simple stitches and an easy 2-stitch repeat makes it an ideal project to knit on the go. 

The magic comes from pairing one solid yarn with a self-striping or color-changing yarn—the colors shift and unfold as you knit, creating a mesmerizing fabric that looks far more complex than it is. The result is a lightweight, versatile shawl that’s just as beautiful wrapped around your shoulders on a chilly plane as it is draped casually over your favorite outfit.
