My wonderful friend and talented designer Anne Berk made this amazing Chic Sheep Dream Intarsia Knit Blanket – a colorwork knit blanket using the intarsia knitting technique and all 24 colors of the Chic Sheep by Marly Bird™ yarn. Each row of the blanket randomly uses all 24 colors of Chic Sheep. Not only is this a great way to try out all of the colors in the collection but it is the perfect way to use up your ends from other projects you are making with Chic Sheep.

Living in Colorado, I know firsthand how unpredictable fall weather can be—it’s 80 degrees one moment and 50 the next! That’s why I designed the Goldenrod Crochet Cardigan, a versatile, easy-to-wear layering piece that’s perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re heading out for coffee or cozying up at home, this cardigan has you covered.
Cardigans are a wardrobe essential, and the Goldenrod Crochet Cardigan is no exception. It’s easy construction begins with a one-piece back, with sleeve shaping as simple as adding chain stitches where indicated in the pattern.
The beautiful lace stitch pattern adds interest without being overly complex—though there’s a key tip to keep in mind: on the first repeat row, you’ll need to chain a specific number of stitches and work into them before returning to the main piece.
The pattern’s thoughtful edging incorporates post stitches for texture and structure, with a top chain detail that adds a flattering linear effect along the body.
When creating this pattern, I chose thin yarn for its polished look and excellent drape, especially for lace. A blend of silk and wool makes the Goldenrod Crochet Cardigan breathable, warm, and perfect for layering.
Here are some yarns you might like:
When selecting your yarn, consider the desired drape and feel of your cardigan. These options provide a range of textures and finishes to suit your personal style. Also, look for a lightweight yarn that enhances the lace detailing and feels soft against the skin.
Use a crochet hook size that will allow you to get the correct gauge—the pattern provides specific gauge information to ensure the best fit.
One of my goals in designing the Goldenrod Crochet Cardigan was to make it size-inclusive and easy to customize. The pattern includes a range of sizes, with specific instructions for adjustments.
Want a longer cardigan? Simply add one or two extra repeats to the back panel before working the sleeves, ensuring you end on the correct row number. Don’t forget to match the added rows on the front panels for a seamless fit.
Prefer a cardigan with a closure? Consider adding hook-and-eye closures at the bust line or maybe pedestal buttons so you can add or remove at will. The lace pattern stretches beautifully, providing a flattering look without compromising the design.
This pattern is advanced beginner-friendly, but understanding how to work into crochet chains for the lace stitch is essential. Don’t rush—take your time on the first row of the repeat, and the rest will fall into place.
You should also understand the difference between a single crochet, double crochet and a double treble crochet. Note: these are US crochet terms.
The stitch construction is different than what you might have done before but with an open mind and the help of a crochet stitch diagram and well written instructions, you can absolutely do this.

Have you ever heard of mosaic crochet? You must have heard of it by now. It’s really grabbing a hold in the crochet world. So we’d like to tell you a little more about it. But in the meantime, go get the FREE Nordic Stripes Mosaic Crochet Blanket on the Yarnspirations website, then come right back here for more info (and a free video with tips to help you make it)!
With easy stripes and challenging colorwork (well, it might be to start with, but you can do it), this Nordic-inspired crochet blanket has enough variation to keep you interested as you work.
But first, let’s answer a few of the most-asked questions about mosaic crochet…
The main techniques used for this blanket include interlocking crochet, one of the mosaic crochet types. This involves working in front of stitches in rows below, single crochet, and more.
The other type is called overlay crochet. This technique involves working around a basic filet mesh to form a thicker fabric and intricate patterning.
Learn all about both of these types of mosaic crochet and many more knit and crochet colorwork techniques in Camp Colorwork – a course about all things color in knit and crochet. Find patterns, videos, guidance, and more in this comprehensive course all about color!
Mosaic crochet can be reversible, but it isn’t always the case. It depends on what the designer wants for the pattern as to how they design it. If it’s a bag, it doesn’t have to be reversible, but with a blanket or scarf, reversible mosaic crochet is a much better option.
You work mosaic crochet from a chart. You read this chart from bottom to top and right to left. Charts always show how the Right Side (RS) of your work should look, so they’re the perfect way to stay on track.
The easy part is that you only ever use one color across a row at a time. There’s no need to juggle or try to hide the second color as it has its own rows.
The slightly harder part is that each chart row shows both colors. This means that you must work two physical rows in different colors to complete one chart row. Work the background color row first, then repeat that row again, working with only the second color.
It’s much easier when you see it done, so watch the video below for a closer look. I’ll explain and show you everything you need to know to make this blanket a complete success!
Whatever the pattern tells you to use will be the best choice, but unfortunately, Red Heart Heat Wave is a discontinued yarn. A great alternative is KnitPicks Brava. It’s still a 100% Acrylic worsted-weight yarn. They have a huge color range and more yardage per ball. It’s great value!
(Learn more about Red Heart Heat Wave in my review. It’s an interesting concept!)
If you love the look of Mosaic Crochet, check out these FREE patterns from my website:
Be sure to check out the Lunch and Learn on Yarnspiration’s Facebook page to learn how to work this wonderful stitch pattern. It’s honestly not as hard as it looks. You’ll have the technique down in no time.

Working through a knitting pattern can sometimes be like decoding hieroglyphics when you first start out. Did you know that there are standard knitting abbreviations that are to be used in patterns to make it easier? I say easier but it only becomes that when you know what the abbreviations mean. Bookmark this page to use on your next knitting pattern when you run across a term you don’t know!
Psst: if you like getting knitting help you should check out these other pages on the MarlyBird.com website: Short Row Help, Can I Take Knitting Needles on a Plane?, Cable Knitting Help.

What’s so great about this easy-to-knit headband?
Well, we love the simple twist that makes this knit headband a hot seasonal favorite. But that’s not all! Keep reading to learn more.
One of the most compelling aspects of twisted knit headbands is their versatility. Unlike traditional hats or scarves, these accessories offer a unique blend of style and convenience. They can be effortlessly styled in a multitude of ways, allowing for endless creativity and personal expression.
For a casual daytime look, pair a neutral-toned headband with your favorite knit sweater and jeans for an effortlessly chic ensemble. Alternatively, opt for a bold, vibrant headband to add a pop of color to an otherwise monochromatic outfit. Whether you’re running errands or meeting friends for brunch, a twisted knit headband is the perfect finishing touch to your look.
Because of its unusual shape, many beginners think this project is not something they can tackle. On the contrary, this is an absolutely beginner friendly design! As long as you know how to knit and how to purl, you can tackle a little seed stitch. And if you need help fixing seed stitch in knitting, we got you covered with that as well with this fun how to fix seed stitch video on the Marly Bird YouTube Channel.
So many knitters are visual learners so we made a great video that will give you all the confidence you need to take this on! Marly Bird walks through step-by-step instructions from start to finish for making this beginner ear warmer headband. Perfect project for beginner knitters and experienced knitters. Learn the long tail cast on, seed stitch knitting, binding off or casting off, whip stitch. Use the chenille yarn by Bernat called Velvet to make this lux headband with a twist.
⚠️ CAUTION ⚠️ the chenille yarn has a tendency to pull out of place if it is not knit tight. The result is called worming and it can happen if the stitches get pulled out of place due to lack of being knit tight or even from the agitation of a washer. So if you use the chenille yarn be sure to hand wash only.
In this tutorial by Marly Bird on how to knit a twisted headband there is a lot covered. Here’s a summary of the key points covered:
Overall, Marly Bird’s tutorial provides comprehensive guidance for beginner knitters to create a trendy twisted knit headband.

The Knit Stitch headband is part of the Knit Stitch Collection, which you can find here: http://shrsl.com/4h98f
I had so much fun designing this worsted weight pattern. The stranded colorwork pattern resembles knit stitches. This unisex pattern is such a quick and fun knit.The pattern includes a chart, photo tutorials and video instructions as well. It is great for beginners too because the distance between the color changes is such that you do not need to catch your floats!
Time to get some bulky or super bulky yarn and whip up this headband in no time. Great item for craft fairs or to give as a gift. This pattern will knit up quickly as long as you have basic knitting skills. It is one size fist most and is knit in the round which means NO SEAMS!
Some times you don't need a headband for keeping warm, but to just keep your hair back as you wash your face! It was that very thing that inspired Marly to design and croche this cute and versitile spa headband. Make one in any color you wish. Maybe splurge on a soft cotton yarn to make yours.
Because I know you are going to ask, here is where Marly gets her hooks: http://shrsl.com/4h993
And, I have a feeling you’ll find some headbands here too!
Have fun creating whether it’s for yourself, a coworker, a friend, or to donate.
xoxo Marly Bird
