Welcome to milkbottle, where you’ll find knitting patterns! Many small items of interest will be published here, all based around the idea of using just a little yarn, usually 1 skein or ball.

Two patterns are already here:

Dutch White is a needle roll knitted in environmentally friendly yarn. In undyed off white with vintage herringbone it has the feel of rustic kitchen textiles. A lovely way for your needles to travel and a great use for yarn which may not be so nice to wear.

Buttermilk is a knitted bracelet in a plaited cable with a press stud to fasten. I love the little oddments of silk which Maggie Stearn brings to fairs and always leave the stand with one or two glossy colourways. This little cuff showcases the yarn and makes a lightweight but wintery accessory.

Enjoy, and come back to check up on the new additions.
