Willow Breeze Collection

Where cables drift and stitches breathe.

The Willow Breeze Collection was designed with movement, ease, and quiet beauty in mind. At the heart of the set is the pullover. A top-down raglan that balances classic simplicity with playful detail. Gentle cables twist and curve like branches in the wind, airy drop stitches invite space and light, and soft yarn overs bring rhythm to every row. With 11 inclusive sizes (34–74" finished bust) and a relaxed fit that’s perfect for layering, it’s a sweater you’ll reach for season after season.

Alongside the pullover is the Willow Breeze Cowl, a piece that grew naturally from the same design language. I wanted an option for every knitter...something smaller, quicker, but just as inviting. The cowl captures the same breezy stitches, wrapping gently around your neck with cozy warmth and effortless style.

Both designs are knit in worsted weight yarn, making them approachable projects for knitters ready to enjoy thoughtful details and beautiful finishes. Together, the sweater and cowl create a timeless pairing, though each one stands gracefully on its own. However you choose to knit them, the Willow Breeze Collection invites you to slow down, savor your stitches, and create pieces that feel as comforting to wear as they do to make.

Hazel

A relaxed, wear-everywhere knit with heart and heritage.

Named after my great aunt...a spunky, independent woman who lived life on her own terms...the Hazel Top is made for easy days, casual adventures, and moments of quiet confidence. Aunt Hazel was the kind of woman who chased chickens at dusk, took off down back roads to find the perfect spot for fireworks, and never turned down a Thursday night margarita. She lived simply, laughed often, and always dressed for herself.

This top-down tee is worked in fingering weight yarn with a soothing half brioche rib that gives it soft texture and drape. You’ll begin by shaping the back and front shoulders flat before joining in the round under the arms. Clean i-cord finishes give the neckline, hem, and sleeves a

polished look.

Knit this one for the free spirits. For the women who laugh late into the night. For the ones who know that comfort and style aren’t opposites—they’re a way of living.

Black Moon Cowl

Soft, warm, and effortlessly chic, it’s the perfect finishing touch for chilly winter days. This version features a playful speckled fingering yarn paired with light and airy mohair, creating a fabric that’s both delightfully warm and elegantly refined.

The Black Moon Cowl is worked flat with a simple, memorizable stitch pattern that’s as enjoyable to knit as it is to wear. Gentle increases and decreases shape the cozy bandana style, while a timeless I-cord edge adds a polished touch. Once blocked, the final seam brings everything together, and you’re ready to wrap yourself in its luxurious warmth!

Stormy Nights

Wrap yourself in the hush of twilight and the comfort of handmade warmth.

Stormy Nights is an infinity cowl knit in the round, where gentle ribs meet winding cables and eyelet motifs -- like rain tracing its path across a quiet windowpane. Light as air yet richly textured, this oversized cowl drapes gracefully whether worn long and loose or bundled close to the heart.

Designed for both beauty and practicality, it’s a soothing project to knit and a faithful companion to carry through changing seasons. Whether you’re strolling through misty mornings, cozying up on a train ride, or stepping out into the breeze, Stormy Nights keeps you wrapped in elegance.
