The Snuggled Up Tassel Blanket Pattern is sure to add a beautiful touch to your home.  In this pattern, we use a simple stitch that highlights the unique and varied textures and colors of our yarns. Loosely knit on size 50 needles, your blanket will be a drapey and cozy - think the opposite of stiff and board-like. 

We offer 2 versions of this in the pattern you receive. The first blanket is knit holding 1 strand of our Pixie Dust yarn together with one strand of our Sister yarn. We used contrasting colors to achieve a tonal marled look shown here. In the second version, we use our Sister yarn only and hold 2 strands together.

In both versions, the tassels make the blanket. Do not skip adding these for an extra element of texture and fun!

All of the pattern, yarn and colorway details can be found right here. As always if you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line at amy@knitcollage.com

Often times I am asked what can you make with one skein of Knit Collage yarn. Over the years, I've tried to come up with lots of great answers to that question. At the last needle arts tradeshow, I wanted to tackle this question with our Pixie Dust yarn, mainly because we have 3 new colors coming out this fall. That is how the Cocoon Pixie Cowl came about. It is a simple pattern that will take you just a few hours to make but the end result is anything but boring. The yarn has so much texture and color that you barely have to do anything to it to make it look pretty. I know we have a long way till the holidays but this would be the best handmade gift. Quick to knit up, beautiful and soft. The pattern is available right here.  I knit this one up in new Pixie Dust color Granola Girl, my personal favorite, new for Fall 2015!

Next week, I pack up my bags and head out the TNNA tradeshow in Columbus, Ohio. I cannot wait! I love catching up with old friends and meeting new shop owners.  At this show we are releasing 8 new yarns- woo hoo! I couldn't be more excited about these beauties. We have 3 new Pixie Dust colors, 3 new Cast Away colors and 2 new Wildflower Drifter colors. Pics of all of them below. They will be available in August, awww yeah! If you'll be at the show, please visit us in booth 936.
