Mory knits. Rather obsessively. And I thought it might be fun to share some of the patterns she either knits or wears in Misplaced Souls (Misfits 1).
Mory’s go-to hat pattern: Snap by Tin Can Knits. Mory is knitting a slouch version of this hat with her own [K4/P4] check pattern thrown in for fun throughout Misfits 1. I’ve knit several Snap Hats myself and you can see them on my Ravelry page. I will also be giving away a couple of hats (cashmere!!) when I get my hands on the paperbacks for Misfits 1.
Mory’s go-to pattern for self-striping socks: Smooth Operator by Susan B. Anderson. Mory is wearing rainbow socks, like these:
Mory’s self-striping arm warmers: Palmistry by Stephanie Lotven. Mory is knitting a longer version than called for in the pattern in Misfits 1 with a skein of Black-Hearted Brimstone from MudPunch yarns. I’ll be giving away some self-striping yarn in May when I get Misfit 1 paperbacks.
Mory’s large purple/pink/blue shawl: The Drifter by Tamy Gore. I haven’t knitted my version yet but this is the yarn I’m going to use:
Other knitwear/patterns mentioned:
Pearl Godfrey’s (light gray) Estonia lace shawl: Echo Flower Shawl by Jenny Johnson Johnen
Mory’s colorwork (mostly black with purple and light gray) sweater that she wears to lunch: Gardengate by Jennifer Steingass
Burgundy is wearing lace socks that Mory knit for her birthday: Spring Forward by Linda Welch
In the final scenes of Misfits 1, Mory is attemtping to learn the brioche stitch: Plumpy by Andrea Mowry.
Fun! Fun!

That yarn is gorgeous! I love the Transmutation colorway. Are they all fingering weight, DK, or Worsted? Inquiring minds and all that 😀
The skeins for the Drifter shawl are fingering weight but Black Cat dyes different yarns in all their colours. 😊
Love the pictures! Makes me almost want to learn how to knit. Mory will need to knit some masks to go out and about. That is what I have been sewing lately.
The yarn you’ve picked out is beautiful! I can knit simple basics (ie. scarf), but these patterns make me want to learn more knitting skills! Can I send my efforts to you to fix when I mess them up? Because I will mess something up!
Ha. I barely have the time (or rather take the time) to fix my own mistakes ! 😂 But YouTube is a fantastic resource.
Love the patterns! I have to laugh a bit because I spent most of the day adding products to my yarn shops online shop, I’m a partner, one of 12 women owners, and we’re using this stay home time to good advantage!
I also want to thank you for the Audible copy of Misfits and Mental Blocks that I won in a drawing. Tia Rider is a fantastic narrator.
So smart to bulk up your online shop during this crazy time!! And I’m so glad you enjoyed Amplifier 3 in audio!! I absolutely adore Tia’s narration as well.
Oooo I may have to put down my crochet hook and dust off my knitting needles to give some of these a try! Love that you’re sharing the patterns
😊
Alright, goals are Mary’s poncho, do you have pattern for it!?
And then I’ll need to make some socks, and arm warmers, and…….lol
I shared all patterns I had links for/to. Mory’s poncho came from my imagination and now only lives on the page. 😊
ohhhh I love your yarn choices for the drifter, never used black cat yet …. I think we need a misfit KAL now.
A Misfits KAL might be fun!!
