My new patterns, Wood Hollow Hat & Wood Hollow Mittens (Ravelry links) were named for the street where I grew up. Wood Hollow Road conjures comforting memories of lovingly cooked meals, gatherings with friends and family, my parents beautiful gardens and always my father's beloved music playing in the background.
If you're looking for something special for last minute holiday knitting this set might be just the project. Hats and mittens work up quickly. There is, if you are anything like me, plenty of worsted weight yarn already in your stash. The cables here may look complicated, but there is only a simple 8 row repeat, which is easily memorized. Both patterns have charts as well as written instructions for the stitch patterns.
