the girl from auntie patterns

As you can see from my whining here, my website had a little meltdown during the first week of March. I am in the process of restoring it (which includes my old blog database, hurrah). This means that for the time being, my pattern pages are down.

If you wanted to purchase one of Rogue, Eris, or the Celtic Cap and can’t wait, please e-mail me at orders AT girlfromauntie DOT com. If you were after one of the free patterns, sit tight! They’ll be back.

An infinite cable pattern with a 24-row repeat. The foundation row requires 15 stitches (pattern increases to 23) and can be used as a replacement for the side cable pattern of Rogue, for those who don’t want to have waist shaping.

Electronic (PDF) versions of the girl from auntie patterns are available only from this site. The print versions of these electronic files are not authorized for sale or distribution by anyone else.

However, authorized print editions of these patterns are available from select retailers. The authorized print patterns are formatted differently than the PDF files, but with just as much white space, large charts, and clear type. They are printed in black and white and include a glossy, full-colour cover page. Currently only Rogue and the Celtic Cap are available in print.

You can find the authorized print editions at the following retailers. Note that some of them may only sell the pattern in kit form only. Please contact these retailers for details.

This used to be the main page for “patterns” on this website.

Well, it still is, actually, but there’s some revision going on. Formatting and programming and uploading reloading and tweaking and more uploading and more reloading and more tweaking. When it’s done, it’ll look… something like this.

But the content is still here! Did you want to buy some patterns, like Rogue or Eris? Please come this way. Or did you want some free patterns? The clothing and accessories are here, and the cables are here.

For Rogue: if you would like to replace the side panel cable with a panel that doesn’t involve waist shaping, here are a couple of options for you: the Simple Celtic Panel and the Composite Celtic Panel.
