Polar Bear Patterns is my own line of original knitting patterns.

I started writing patterns in order to have something to teach from, and found that I really enjoyed the pattern-writing process.  Currently I have 20-some patterns that cover everything from felted snowmen to moebius scarves  — and mine has an easier cast-on than Cat Bordhi's, if I say it myself — to socks, hats and wraps.

One of the things I have been rigorous about in developing my patterns is that I have kept them non-yarn-specific:  in other words, I don't specify a brand of yarn to use.  Instead, I give yarn types & quantities:  partly so you can use anything you have that is suitable, but also to encourage you to be creative in your project choices.  I get the heebie-jeebies when I see someone knitting something exactly the way it looks in the picture!

Polar Bear Patterns are available for download

at polarbearpatterns.com

or my pattern store on Ravelry

(Please note, some patterns are available on one site and not the other.  I am working on it, I swear, but I'm only one person and I need a lot of sleep.)

Also, some of my patterns are available live-and-in-person at Farmhouse Knit Shop, The Knitting Bee, and For Yarn's Sake.  I'd love for you to patronize the LYS's if you can.
