Wouldn`t the the newest baby in town look precious in this sweater?

Melissa crocheted this Quick and Easy Baby Cardigan (designed by Zelna Olivier) using just 2 skeins of Malabrigo Rios. It is so soft and warm - perfect to keep baby nice and cozy!

Mostly stitched using double crochet, this cardi whips up in no time.

The Leaving Cowl is a free pattern by Maria Magnusson @mariamagnussonknits and it is just gorgeous on Fibra Natura Ravello, offered by Universal Yarn @universal_yarn .

This was a fun and quick knit that only uses one ball of Ravello - a super-soft blend of cotton, fine merino and recycled cashmere. We have every colorway! 🧶

Sample time! Jan used one skein of @wonderlandyarns Mary Ann from their Colorburst collection to knit this shawl, which used the assigned pooling technique from the pattern Float by designer @barker.wool .

Want to learn how to use assigned pooling to make your own beautiful knitted object? We have a couple spots left in our class beginning October 6. Stop in or call to sign up:

Sample time!

Michelle knit this Dodging Raindrops cowl on @wonderlandyarns Mary Ann base in the Toadstool colorway. This cowl is excellent car or travel knitting, with just enough interest to keep it from getting boring. The result is a soft and squishy cowl that is reminiscent of spring rain!
