Mink Shorts
Is it summer yet? I see all the signs that it's coming here. The sun rises earlier and brighter, there's the sound of running water as the snow piles visibly shrink by the day, the arctic bunnies are turning brown again, and we have a new summer-y pattern for you! It's not a new swimsuit… Continue reading Mink Shorts
Polar Sweater/Dress
Living where it snows eight months of the year means that warmth, comfort and style are often on our mind when designing. That's why we created the 'Polar Sweater/Dress' pattern - to make sure you look great and feel cozy no matter the weather! This versatile knit dress pattern is designed to work with mid-weight… Continue reading Polar Sweater/Dress

Minnow Swimsuit
It's swimsuit season! (Or so I've heard.....we DID just get another dumping of snow earlier this week.) Last year we didn't actually have a new swim pattern and it felt a little weird so this year we decided to make two: The Minnow and the Pike! You can read more about the Pike Swimsuit on… Continue reading Minnow Swimsuit
Miss Wood Lily
These pants were first thought up as one part of a full outfit after perusing a couple online RTW stores to see what teens were buying these days. There were so many fitted crop top options being offered, but we didn't feel inspired to make a pattern for one ourselves. So what then? How about… Continue reading Miss Wood Lily
The Miss Limestone Coat/Cardigan
We fell in love with the general shape of the Miss Limestone right from the start but went back and forth on whether it should be a coat or a cardigan. In the end we decided there HAD to be a way to make it work as either one. As a coat it works well… Continue reading The Miss Limestone Coat/Cardigan
Trail Joggers
For quite a while now we've had people ask us to please make a jogger in the Junior Miss size range (since we already have the Railway Joggers in our girls size range). The Trail Joggers were our answer to that request and we decided to make it in both the Junior Miss (size 0-20)… Continue reading Trail Joggers
Bedrock Skirt
Who doesn't love a good jean skirt? WE sure do so it was about time we added one to our lineup. Our hope is that it can become a good foundation for many Sofiona outfits. (Did you catch what I did there? "foundation"....."bedrock" skirt.......if no one else I at least entertain myself.) Photo: Trish The… Continue reading Bedrock Skirt
Caribou
This pattern started off as an idea for a shirt, but quickly extended into a dress too so it could be a full outfit. The idea was to create something cozy but with a clean elegant look to it. The knit fabric and slightly loose fit provide the "cozy" while the high neckline, bishop sleeves… Continue reading Caribou
