My newest pattern is the Garden Path Moebius. It's a knitted moebius capelet featuring a cables and lace pattern, edged with a sweet ruffle. I've loved moebius knitting ever since I first heard about it. Once you master the cast-on, it's just regular knitting... with a bit of a twist.
The Garden Path Moebius (rav link) takes its name from my studies in linguistics - a garden path sentence leads the reader astray as it is being read. It's perfectly grammatical, but it takes an unexpected turn. Examples include "The old man the boat," (the old people man the boat) or "The horse raced past the barn fell" (the horse, who was being raced, fell).
The Garden Path Moebius combines some of my all-time favorite things -- the name comes from my passion in linguistics, the yarn comes from my favorite indie dyer, Juno Fibre Arts, and the knitting combines some great techniques: moebius knitting (which itself comes from one of my favorite designers, Cat Bordhi), cables and lace, a reversible stitch pattern, and ruffles. This design was a real labor of love for me, so I hope you enjoy it.
