River is a tasseled pillow that features a twining central motif of alternating large and small not-quite-cables, flanked by angled stitches moving across a background of reverse stockinette. Inspired by an area in California where three underground water sources converge to supply fresh water to San Francisco Bay residents, the pillow’s stitchwork flows downwards, drawing the eye along a pathway that is only partly revealed.
The pillow is knit in the round and utilizes a sock-inspired cast on that eliminates most of the seaming. A ridge is knit into each side to mark where the tassels will attach and make placement easier.

Inspired by modern strip quilt patterns, this poncho is worked in stockinette stitch and intarsia colorwork to create a bold and dramatic garment. The poncho evokes a more casual feel when it’s worn traditionally with the point in front. Worn reversed with the draped edge at the neck, the drama intensifies. The poncho is worked flat, overlapped and stitched together.
