October already? It’s personally my favorite month of the year and I also happen to know that it is Teresa Gregorio‘s favorite time of year as well. She’s the featured designer of our free October Keeping Home pattern – check out the Woodsy Kitchen Set!
This adorable set has three pieces to it – a tree-like hand towel, an adorable red leaf dishcloth and a sweet orange leaf mug cozy. All three pieces feature a mixture of texture and garter stitch, for an easy yet visually interesting pattern. Plus, they are designed to hang together when not in use – giving you an adorable decoration that is useful as well!
The hand towel has a great hanging loop, resembling a branch, that will go over any cupboard handle to be exactly where you need it.
The dishcloth features an icord hanging loop, perfect for hanging up after use to dry.
Finally the mug cozy is a really fun piece – it’s designed to fit any mug you may have in your cupboard! You can snugly secure the “leaves” that wrap around and drape down your mug with the I-cord ties that extend from the two side leaf tips.
This will cheer up the plainest of mugs!
Knit in CotLin in our warmest autumn colors (Coffee, Pomegranate, and Clementine), this project is perfect for all fall lovers out there! But I think this would look great in spring colors too, such as Thicket, Ivy and Sprout, when you are looking towards the warming months again. Or maybe try knitting it up in Black, Clarity and Swan for lovely icy look and a wintery feel!
But if you need more autumn in your life, don’t forget to check out Teresa’s adorable (and free!) Pumpking Dishcloth pattern as well! It’s also knit up in CotLin, so you’ll have a matching set.
With these projects together, we’re totally ready to embrace the fall weather and colors!
