New Patterns for Cloche and Mittens

Just out in December are two new knitting patterns from Seaside Knitting for the Tulip Cloche and Tulip Mittens. The cloche comes in two sizes - child and adult - and the mittens are one size fits most.

With a pretty, scalloped edging, both the cloche and mittens will add a feminine touch to any ensemble.

The cloche and mittens pictured were knit with KnitPicks Wool of the Andes yarn for a cost of under $15. The patterns are for sale through www.seasideknittingpatterns.com and Ravelry.com.

Art Nouveau Headband

I was inspired to create this headband after the Art Nouveau pieces depicted in the images of Czech Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha.

The headband is easy to assemble, and it can be adapted to many different tastes. Through yarn and bead color, feather and ribbon choice, and the selection of a distinctive button, the headband can be personalized and made to accent any wardrobe.

Patterns and Kits are available through Seaside Knitting on Etsy.
