Nordic Striped Badesign by Lisa Shroy

Originally published in Interweave Knits Gifts, 2

KathrnMartin

A knitted sphere is just so much fun. I got the idea for

stripe pattern from Vibeke Linds Knitting in the No

Tradition (Sterling, 1998), from a passage where she t

about options for the crown shaping on a two-color str

hat. Working a provisional cast-on at the equator of

ball, I worked the two shaped ends of this ball like

crown of a hat for a neat, perfectly round shape.

Connemara Pondesigned by Kathryn Martin and Evelyn Zlom

Originally published in Interweave Knits Gifts, 2

My first pony was given to me when I was six years old: My

mother made his head with one of my fathers somewhat worn

athletic socks stuffed with cotton balls. An old walking stick of

my grandfathers became his body, and two round black but-

tons gave him sparkling eyes. Two large balls of yarn went into

a long, flowing white mane and tail. He quickly became my

best-loved, constant companion and the envy of all the equally

horse-crazy girls in my neighborhood. Ive owned countless realponies and horses over the years, but never one that inspired

quite the same magic as that first white pony. This dapple gray

Connemara pony comes close.

This really is the easiest pattern ever written for a knitted toy

animal, but once you assemble the simple knitted rectangles

and add distinguishing features, it will become a favorite mem-

Sparks the Cat, and Florence the Rabbit, each with a huge

personality of its own.
