As the days get shorter and the air grows chilly, it's time to warm up with some woolly projects! This month's free downloadable calendar features the some of our favorites patterns from our recent Under 200 collection. Clockwise from L-R: Kearsarge Shawl by Kathi Snodgrass, knit in the ultra-luxe Diadem DK; Leanan Hat by Stephannie Tallent, knit in our rustic and warm City Tweed HW; ZigZagging Hat and Mitts by Mone Dräger knit in silky soft Gloss DK and Daya Headband by Allison O'Mahony knit in our bright and fun Tuff Puff. All of these projects will keep you warm this winter - and are perfect for last minute holiday gifts too! |

Oversized knit and crochet projects are showing up everywhere lately – huge arm-knitted blankets, chunky ottomans, garter stitch pillows, you name it. I absolutely love the dramatic impact of these home décor accessories, but I absolutely do not love the usual price tag associated with extra-heavy supersized projects. I have also tried to make some of the jumbo-gauge projects I’ve seen on Ravelry using multiple strands of worsted weight or bulky weight yarn, but the look isn’t quite the same as those gorgeous pictures I see on Pinterest. |

Everybody, I'm more excited than a kid on Christmas morning to introduce you to our newest yarn line. It's a yarn I have wanted us to carry for ages, because the softness, lightness, and warmth are just incredible. |

Get your Felici now before it's gone! There are so many reasons to love Felici Sock Yarn! First, let's talk about how super soft the Merino wool is (hint: it's super - duper soft, 19.5 microns). The touch of nylon adds strength and durability, making it suitable for the rigorous wear socks get. Aaaand, Felici is machine washable, so you can wear them daily and they'll still be gorgeous. And we can't forget about the colors! Lots and lots of amazing colors to use in socks, hats, mittens, baby items, and accessories. The biggest reason to love Felici? A Felici sale! |
