The scarf, a perfect template for:

• Playing with colour, texture, and form
• Exploring various knitting constructions
• Experimenting with stitch patterns

Web Exclusive!
The International Year of the Scarf patterns will include all new patterns and will be available only through my website as downloadable PDF’s. They will not be sold anywhere else.

Membership includes:

• One scarf pattern per month, sent as a PDF to your e-mail address during the first week of each month
• One surprise free pattern, sent to your e-mail address, sometime during 2010
• You will receive your pattern before it is posted on the website, where it will then be sold at its regular retail price
• Special discounts on yarns and accessories, announced at various times throughout the year, and available only to club members
• Free instructional tutorials for special techniques
  
• Pattern support and knit-alongs

The Patterns:

• Each scarf pattern will be named after a country or a continent. By the end of the year, you will have travelled around the world.
• The patterns will cover a wide range of styles and techniques. But they will all be within the range of the average knitter. Although some patterns will be more complex than others, full explanations of the techniques involved will be included in each pattern.
• You can expect lace, openwork, colourwork, and textured stitches.
• There will be scarves suitable for men and children, too. A couple of the patterns will also work as cowls or neck warmers.
• And, of course, many of them will be sized for shawls as well.
• The yarns used range from fingering to worsted weight.

Annual membership: $75.00 CAD

You may cancel your membership at any time. You will be refunded the full amount you paid minus the total of the retail prices for any PDF’s you had already received.
