This moebius loop scarf can be made with any weight yarn, as wide as you'd like it, with a single yarn (self-striping works well) or striped between 2 or more different yarns. The simple slip-stitch pattern is the same on both sides, giving this moebius no right or wrong side. Wear it once around your neck for a bit of warmth, or double it up for a big, cozy cowl!

This swirly hat pattern can be made with any weight yarn, fitted or beret style, slouchy or not, custom sized to your head, with buttons or without, with a pointed tip or not. With all these options, you can make it over and over, use up hat-quantity yarn leftovers, or random single skeins, making a totally different hat each time.

This cabled shawl is made up of connecting sections with cables traveling and twisting from one part to the next. Use any yarn from around a dk weight to a super bulky, and make a shawl as big as you want, stopping whenever you're happy with the size or whenever your yarn runs out; bind off in a contrasting color if you want to. A color-coded stitch marker system makes this complex pattern easy to follow.

These fingerless mitts are custom sized to fit your hands, and can be made in any weight yarn. There are two different design options for the top hand section, as well as a 2-color option.

This beginner-friendly asymmetrical scarf is meant to use up leftover scraps, starting a new yarn/color at each row, and leaving the tails as fringe. The easy knit/purl stitch pattern is worked lengthwise with very basic short rows, making one end of the scarf twice the width of the other end. You'll need 2 long circular needles to make this piece, but they can be different sizes from each other.

This potentially-terrifying ski mask has a ribbed neck section which can fold up, turning the piece into a warm hat. The simple any-gauge pattern is knit from the top down, with the eye and mouth holes placed by trying it on as you go (unless it's for a gift, in which case sizing info is included). It's finished with crochet edging around the eye and mouth holes, which can be done in a contrasting yarn for an added design feature.

This is a bonnet or hood style hat, which can be made in any weight yarn and in any size, with i-cord or braided tails (or no tails), which looks especially intriguing in stripes. Short rows throughout make for a completely modular construction - no picking up stitches or seaming, as the first part is worked sideways, then the head worked from the top down, and edged with more sideways garter stitch across the bottom.

These mitts (fingerless or full mittens) are made modularly in any weight yarn from the thumb out, increases and decreases shaping them throughout - no short rows, very little casting-on and no binding-off, and no seaming when they're finished. A fun quick knit which stays interesting every step of the way! The design comes in 3 different versions - short fingerless, long fingerless (which can be worn in either direction), and full mittens - with 2 different wrist pattern options as well, and lots of variation possibility based on yarn choice/striping.
