As I write this, I'm also thinking about the 10,000 other things I need to do today before leaving for India later tonight. So excited! Expect lots of pics and hopefully videos.

Today we are releasing another pattern beauty. The Cozy Cast Away Wrap is a voluminous shawl you'll be able to wear a multitude of ways. We especially love it worn with the point in front to create an oversized bandana cowl look. Wrapped around your shoulders, with the point in back, is also beautiful! The open stitch makes this shawl light and open and the cozy wool make it nice and warm. This pattern knits up in our newest Cast Away yarn, which will be hitting yarn stores this week! Pattern available here.

Over the holiday weekend, I decided to knit up a few accessories in one of our yarns that I don't use too frequently, Candy Cane. This is a super special yarn because it is so difficult to make. Two strands of yarn are handspun separately and then plied together. This is time consuming to say the least. I decided to try a 1 skein version of our popular Ladder Stitch Cowl pattern and love how it came out.  I've just updated the pattern to add in this 1 skein option. Yarns that will work for this pattern are Candy Cane, Sister, Gypsy Garden & Rolling Stone. Hope you like it as much as I do!

How insanely adorable are these patterns knit up n our yarns by the Holland magazine Knippie?! If only I could understand them! Be sure to check out the latest Knippie issue if you live in Holland. The yarns featured are Gypsy Garden & Rolling Stone.
