Build Your Fall Wardrobe with the Owasso Tee Knitting Pattern

Despite the name having the word “tee” in it, the Owasso Tee from Blue Sky Fibers doesn’t really look like a summer project to me.

It’s a long line, oversized, boxy aran weight top worked in Shaker Rib that is just begging to be layered over your favorite long-sleeved shirts on those first cool days of autumn. I really feel like this might become a favorite lounging around the house top, worn over leggings with a long-sleeve tee underneath.

The pattern, designed by Bobby IntVeld, is offered in nine sizes up to a 72 inch chest measurement. While it’s meant to be worn with quite a lot of positive ease (it’s shown at 11 inches) you can pick a size closer to your actual body measurement if you want to make more of a vest than a roomy top.

Either way, you can get the pattern (and the yarn!) direct from Blue Sky Fibers.

Why should the fireplace get all the fun? Instead of knitting stockings this year, why not whip up a pair of Christmas themed socks? These Christmas sock knitting patterns are lots of fun to make and you can wear them to holiday gatherings for years to come.

For our friends in the southern part of the world, there are the Christmas in July socks from the Kiwi Lodge – Kylie (Ravelry link). These shorty socks are covered in Christmas trees and have bright pink heels and toes for a tropical feel. There’s also an option to make a longer sock if you celebrate somewhere it’s colder.

Twin Stitches Designs (Ravelry) has a fun pattern with mix and match colorwork motifs you can use to build your own cozy Christmas socks. From the sample socks I see Christmas puddings, trucks hauling trees, Santa belts, ornaments and a couple of different borders. There may be more patterns included but the listing doesn’t say. Make a pair that matches or use different motifs on each foot for extra holiday cheer.

If you want to stick to Christmas puddings on your holiday socks, check out this cute pattern from Stone Knits. These lovely socks feature a band of puddings around the leg and a bit of holly by the toes.

These vintage holiday light socks from Grey Owl Knits by Sarah are classic looking and lots of fun at the same time. I love this color combination but of course you can make your lights and stripes whatever colors you like or have on hand. They’re worked using stranded knitting.

And if you’d like even more of a mix of patterns for your socks, try Barbara Ceglédi’s Christmas Chaos socks, a free pattern on Ravelry. The pattern includes 25 little motifs you can choose from, ranging from snowflakes and Christmas trees to elf hats, reindeer and hearts.
