leethal quick knits club patterns Vol. 2

Jan-April 2010, self-released as a mini-ebook in July 2010: $6

Each month's pattern set is also available on its own for $3...

(Note: $6 above gets you all 8 of the patterns you see here, in one 23 page pdf; each month's 2 pattern set is $3, so the ebook is a much better deal if you like more than 1 month.)

See the quick knits pattern page for more photos of each pattern set. See the club page for more info about the club.

January, keeping warm: Afterthought Earflaps and Pinwheel Earmuffs
Two different ways to keep your ears toasty warm during the cold winter months - a set of earflaps that get sewn into a hat to make it more wearable in the chilly winter wind, and recycled-sweater-lined earmuffs with a fun swirly design. 10 yards of bulky weight yarn makes both earflaps, and 15 yards of bulky makes the earmuffs.

February, his or hers: Argyle Cuff and Bolt
A simple wide rectangle cuff, fastened closed by 2 buttons, with a combination of increases, decreases, and mini-cables making a textured argyle design; and a garter stitch piece with long ends that tie around the wearer's wrist, shooting out into a lightning bolt shape in the middle. 15 yards of worsted-ish weight make the argyle cuff, and 10 yards of dk-ish make bolt.

March, photography: Cabled Frame and Camera Patch
A cabled picture frame to show off one of your favorite photos, and a camera patch to stick onto your camera bag, or tote/messenger bag/purse, or where ever you like. There's also an extra bonus idea for some bulky yarn - cover your camera's wrist strap with i-cord! 15 yards of worsted weight yarn make the frame, and 10 yards of bulky make the patch.

April, fruits and veggies: Mini Produce Bag and Fruit+Veggie Scrubbies
Fruit/veggie-shaped scrubbies - orange, strawberry, carrot, and tomato - are worked in seed stitch for a good scrubbing texture, and the mini produce bag is made with just 10 yards of bulky yarn and a piece of lace, but expands to hold a lot more fruit than you might expect! The scrubbies take about 7-8 yards of bulky yarn each, and the bag needs 10 yards, plus some lace and a t-shirt loop (or other strap fabric) for the handle.
