This past week's cold snap was a great opportunity to wear all the recently finished winter projects one more time! Here's a fun new shawlette using two different colors of Lang Mille Colori Baby. Linus, a free pattern on Ravelry, is a great way to play with colors, especially with the fun self-striping yarn. Lightweight Fine Merino Superwash makes for a incredibly soft scarf that will carry you through Spring.
Knit local! We have the most lovely alpaca yarn from a local farm, Silver Heart Ranch. This two ply sport weight is cozy and fuzzy and comes in several beautiful natural shades. We knit Flora Poste's Cap with one skein. All over seed stitch gives the simple cap fantastic texture!
We have a cute new baby yarn, Babe Soft Cotton Worsted. This is a cotton/acrylic blend with generous yardage and fun multi colorways. We made a toddler sized Garter Ear Flap Hat with less than one ball!
