Churchmouse Mohair Bias Loop

Stripes for Spring! Check out one of our favorite patterns, the Churchmouse Mohair Bias Loop, knit on a smaller needle (we used size US 7) with larger yarn! We love the softness and drape of Mad Hatter, a sport weight, hand-dyed mini skein kit from Frabjous Fibers. It comes in lots of colors to choose from, there is a favorite for everyone! 

 

Ito Gima Bias Scarf

More stripes! This cute bias scarf is knit in Ito Gima, a lightweight cotton tape yarn. We used four colors, but you could use more or less, or make your stripes bigger or smaller! Pattern is free with yarn purchase. You can see this scarf on the Yarn Bus!

 

Euro Baby Kid Cotton Blanket

New yarn from Euro Baby! Kid Cotton is a sport weight 100% cotton that is machine washable. We made a cute color blocked baby blanket with plenty of leftovers for a hat or car seat sized blanket. Pattern is free with yarn purchase.

 

A Note from Christina, Organizer of Threads of Kindness:

Hello everyone...I'd like to invite you to join a group that is very near to my heart as I know it is for many of you.  We are working to provide hospice patients in middle Tennessee with a blanket or shawl for a little comfort at a time when they may most need it and preemie blankets and hats to many of the Nashville's Neo-Natal units.  If you think this giving opportunity may be right for you, please reach out to us.  We are fortunate to have generous yarn donations from Haus of Yarn helping us along our way and would love to share our stash with you.
