Hello there!
Here’s a sneak peek of a new pattern I’m working on.
It’s going to be an infinity scarf.
I’m using a technique I haven’t used before, but learned about a while ago. It’s super easy and fun!
So stay tuned. It should be done soon!
Oh, and I’ve published my Hudson Bay Cup Cozy pattern.
You can find it over on loveknitting.com, in my Etsy store and over on Craftsy.
Happy knitting!

Good afternoon everyone!
I’m so excited to share the pattern I created for “Paintbox Yarns”. 😀
“Sunshine on a Cloudy Day” is now available exclusively through loveknitting.com.
This modern, fun cushion cover with a pop of neon yellow is sure to brighten up your day! It utilizes only knit and purl stitches and is the PERFECT project for the beginner knitter.
So head on over to loveknitting.com and check out my new pattern!
Happy knitting!

Hi everyone!
I wanted to share with you that Peartree Knitting will be getting a bit of a makeover during the next few months or so.
I’m not too sure how long it will take really, as I want to refine my website a bit more (I’ve already changed it up a little bit), spruce up my patterns and learn to take better photos.
So, come on back every once and a while and check out the progress. I hope you’ll like all the changes coming!
And a huge thank you for your on going support!
I’m excited!

Good morning everyone.
Well, I managed to get 1 of the 2 patterns written this week. I guess that’s better than none! LOL! I was really hoping to launch both at one time but that just didn’t happen.
So my “Buffalo Check Cup Cozy” pattern is now available for purchase on loveknitting.com, in my Etsy store and on Craftsy.
It’s such a fun and quick project! Perfect for your leftover yarn!
Oh! And stay tuned! Next week my pattern I designed for Paintbox Yarns will be launching!
Happy knitting!

Hello everyone!
I just wanted to stop by and share some sneak peeks of a couple of quick, fun patterns I’m writing.
Hope to have them done by early next week!
STAY TUNED!

I can’t believe I finally have this blanket done! It’s been a work in progress for just over a year now.
I made it for myself (something I don’t do too often) and just LOVE how it turned out.
It’s SO cushy and thick and warm! It’s a nice simple garter stitch with an I-cord edge for a slightly more finished look.
Here’s how I made it:
16 balls of King Cole Super Chunky yarn
US size 15 needles
Darning needle to weave in endsCast on 120 stitches
Slip the first stitch purl-wise
Knit across the row until the last stitch
Purl the last stitch
Repeat the above pattern for every row.The finished size is approximately 55″ X 58″
Happy knitting!

Hey there!
I’ve knit SO MANY infinity scarves for other people but never one for myself, so hearing that this week was going to get COLD again, I grabbed some yarn and knit myself this beauty!
Here’s the pattern:
3 balls of King Cole Super Chunky (approx. 250 yards)
US size 13 needlesCast on 25 stitches
Knit every row (garter stitch) until you come close to the end of your 3 balls
Cast off in pattern leaving about 12 – 15″ of yarn to sew your ends together.
Super simple and fast!
Stay warm!

Good afternoon!
I had always wanted to make some cup cozies but hadn’t yet had the chance.
But a couple of days ago my best friend messaged me with a photo of a cup cozy she had made and it was gorgeous! That was the push I needed to try one.
She sent me the pattern she followed, but it involved double pointed needles and sock yarn, neither of which I own.
So, I came up with my own pattern! 😉
Here are the cup cozies I’ve made so far! They are SO FUN to make!
Well off to make some more!!
And let me know if you would like one!! I’d be happy to make it! 😀
Happy Sunday!

Hi there!
I started this crib blanket late last year but never had a chance to finish it.
Between making commissioned pieces, hosting Christmas, ringing in the New Year and then deciding it would be a great time to begin changing our flooring, I just didn’t have the time.
But now we’ve taken a break from changing the flooring (I needed a break from the dust – we’re putting hardwood down) so I had the chance to finally complete the blanket and get the pattern written.
I was inspired by the Burberry colours and hence the name “Thomas” as in “Thomas Burberry”. 😉
It’s a really simple blanket pattern that utilizes only the knit stitch and simple colour changes. I used “Red Heart Soft” yarn. It was wonderful to work with. The blanket ended up nice and cushy!
The finished size is approximately 35″ X 46″ so would make for a really nice lapghan too!
The patterns are available for sale over at loveknitting.com, in my Etsty store and on Craftsy.com.
If you give it a try, please share a photo on my Facebook page! I would love to see your work!
Happy knitting!
