After seeing the pattern for Marin, I really, really wanted to make it. I was going to wait until after I have my mom’s cardi finished, but after Monica came to SnB with hers and said we should do a knitalong, I was all on-board.
I’m using madelinetosh tosh merino light, which is a bit lighter than the sport-weight yarn called for in the pattern. But I’m sure it will be fine.
And look – it coordinates with my snazzy new pattern walled from Madbird:
This is the full-sized wallet, in the “Ghastly Night” print:
And a peek at the inside – that’s a clear plastic pocket on the right side:

Pattern wallet?! Who woulda thunk it?
I’m envious of your Marin start. I want to knit it so badly, but if I take my eye off my current knit it will only cause me twice the trouble. Love the new pattern wallet!
I had the same reaction to this one but managed to control myself and forget all about it until I saw your post. Your start looks perfect and I love the yarn you use, it has the best drape in the world.
It’s in my queue, too! (But it will be a long while, I’m afraid.)
I can never look at Ysolda’s patterns cuz I just sit there and think how adorable she is and then I forget to look at the knitting. Love that pattern sleeve, though.
Adorable pattern wallet! Fingers crossed for the pattern.
Beautiful start! And that pattern wallet! Isn’t that the coolest thing ever!
What a cool pattern wallet, I love that.
Your Marin is looking lovely! I haven’t yet photo’d mine, and it is in a car headed for Oregon right now. (I’m not in the car with it.) I’m almost to the short rows.
That’s a very cool pattern pocket! I started Marin a couple of weeks ago but haven’t worked on it lately. I like it, just haven’t had the brainpower to do charts right now!
I did not know about Pattern Wallets! Great idea.
Hmm, my name is coming up as “Cary”. It’s Heather, accidentally impersonating my man. Weird. I’ll have to look into fixing that.
Okay. As I was first reading your post, I decided I wanted to knit Marin. As I continued reading, though, I was totally taken with the pattern wallet!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!
