The Candy Cowl by Juju Vail

One of my favorite patterns to knit with our yarn is the Candy Cowl by Juju Vail of Loop London. It's lightweight and makes great use of 1 skein of our yarns. Change up the mohair that's striped in and you have a more summery feeling cowl. 

 

Another bonus- all of our yarns will work with this pattern too. I've knit it a handful of times and recommend it to anyone that's not quite sure what to do with our yarns.  Did I mention the pattern is free?! Available here.

 

Before our latest tradeshow I whipped one up in our Daisy Chain yarn in color Frosty Azure. The other yarn I knit with is a Be Sweet yarn, medium brushed mohair.  Take a peak below- love the way this one turned out!

And the Loop version photographed above- so pretty right?!

Scarves in the Round by Heather Walpole

Good friend and knitting expert, Heather Walpole from Ewe Ewe Yarns, just published her first book called Scarves in the Round.  The book features 25 stunning cowl patterns. I couldn't be more excited about the 2 patterns that use our yarns. They are gorgeous. Take a peak below at the patterns and read on to find out what inspired Heather. Of course be sure to pick up your copy of the book right here too! 

A Touch of Glitter Cowl: I was working on a really pretty and simple diamond lace stitch pattern and I thought it could use a yarn with just a hint of sparkle. Maharani Silk has three fun colors of silk and one skinny strand of lurex for just the right amount of shine to make my design pop! A Touch of Glitter also features a picot cast-on and bind-off to really make this cowl something special. Pattern info here.
Adorned Cowl: My inspiration for Adorned was simply Knit Collage yarn! I love the hand spun quality of the Rolling Stone yarns and the colors and embellishments in the Boho Dance color way are swoon-worthy! I wanted this scarf to show off that yarn as best it could so I chose the neutral backdrop go Sister yarn to compliment it. These two yarns together make a big, double-thick scarf that is so plush, lush and warm. Love! Pattern info here.

The Pom Pom Scarf

After a long hiatus from blogging, it's great to be back. Finally I have some childcare help and have been spending some time actually working- hooray! It's not easy to leave our baby's cute little face though! I'm psyched to start releasing new fall patterns starting today with this adorable 1 skein scarf pattern by Susan Sheby. This pattern will completely work with any of our yarns but we suggest either Gypsy Garden, Rolling Stone or Cast Away. Pattern available here
