Knit Socks!
This is the time to challenge yourself and move on to the next level of your knitting. Socks are the perfect knit to carry with you ...after your first pair they just may become your "mindless knitting". The yarns designed for socks just keeps getting better (sock knitters collect this amazing array of fibers and stash it everywhere) not to mention how toasty it will keep your toes! Bet you can't knit just one pair!

Felted Slippers I had forgotten how much i love these slippers until a couple of weeks ago when i pulled them out of a drawer one night that i just couldn't get warm...and i've worn them every night since! Really...not only is it a WONDERFUL way to learn to knit socks...you will want several pairs to get you through the rest of the winter...and to prove it...i'll teach you to knit them and will even felt them for you when your project is finished!

Knitted Ballerina Shrug
This pattern was designed by a former yarn shop owner and she tells me it was one of her best selling patterns to her Grandma's...with that, she had me at hello! And she was right, it is darling....a great knit for a new knitter...and therefore a good fit for Cottage Knits!
One little workshop for one little shrug...We can adapt the sizes thru the weight of yarn you knit. Let Sue coach you thru this one!

Top Down Raglan Sweater
Ann Norling's pattern is time tested and gives you so many options. You choose crew neck or v neck, cardigan or pullover...you pick your yarn and we will help you find the guage...and in just in time for Spring you will have a new sweater to add to your wardrobe. Little finishing makes this a practically perfect pattern in my book!
