This month’s word selected by the random number picker from the words suggested on my Patreon is Vox!

I really like both the lace and the charted designs I came up with from encoding the word as numbers:

Lace: https://www.gannetdesigns.com/2023/12/01/vox-a-lace-knitting-stitch-pattern/

Charted design: https://www.gannetdesigns.com/2023/12/01/vox-a-charted-design-for-any-craft/

#knitting #FiberArts #ChartedDesigns

This is actually the second lace pattern I came up with for Vox; the first turned out to be an existing stitch pattern designed by someone else. I’ve seen it, and friends have knit shawls with it. Unknowingly coming up with the same pattern by accident is one thing, but I didn’t feel comfortable with it since I knew.

As it happens, I’m glad that I had to start over, because I like both stitch patterns a lot, and now there’s two instead of just one.

Here’s a photo of my original rough draft.

My design work is supported by my Patreon: https://patreon.com/gannet and by the tip jar in the sidebar of my blog: https://gannetdesigns.com/

I also have patterns for knitted accessories for sale at https://payhip.com/gannet, plus one hat inspired by spindle whorls that combines knitting and crochet.

Thanks!

I don’t know which nation has National Black Cat Appreciation Day, but I hope you will appreciate Shadow, who appreciates the giant plush pillow we bought our kid.
