The latest additions to the box are the following:
- Holiday Stripes - This is a pleasing combination of color and texture.
- Night-and-Day Stripe - This is easy, Fair Isles-lite.
- Hornet’s Nest - This starts out like a bobble, but doesn’t close like a bobble.
- Watergate - An interesting spin on what is essentially a mosaic pattern.
- Surprise Two Color Version - The result is like a Fair Isles pattern.
- Swiss Check - A simple, easy, two color pattern.
- Reversible Two-Tone - Results in a double-knit with a different color on each side.
- Tweed II - This is the two color version of the Linen I pattern. The result is a dense fabric.
- Bold Check - Lots of color and texture.
- Garter Stitch Stripe - Similar to Bold Check. The result is blocks of vertical and horizontal stripes.
- Russian - A vertical serpentine pattern.
- Sandwich Stripe - The result is blocks of vertical and horizontal stripes.
- Tuscan - I do not like this pattern. It was tedious and the result is not very appealing.
- Syncopated Tweed - A pretty multi-color pattern with a hint of texture.
- Crazy Quilt - Results in a two color eyelet.
- Petal Quilting - Lots of texture and interest.
- Cluster Quilting - This is an evolution of the Petal Quilting pattern. The result looks like smocking.
