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!

Sample time! Michelle wrote this Colorburst Celebration Cowl pattern to say thank you after her first year of Tink & The Frog!

The pattern uses just one skein of Wonderland Yarns & Frabjous Fibers March Hare in their Colorburst collection. This project knits up quick using simple ribbing, stockinette and linen stitch. Michelle used the Blue Skies & Rainbows colorway.

We will be carrying Pix by Wisdom Yarns, a superwash wool and nylon blend which comes in eight fun colorways! This vibrant colorway is called Tiger Lily.

This sample was knit in a 7x1 rib with an eye of partridge heel.

The Mountain Town Cowl by Elizabeth Doherty @bluebeestudio in Baby Alpaca Worsted EC by @plymouthyarn is the softest thing ever! One skein of this machine-washable (really!) 100% alpaca yarn is all you need to create this fun and beautiful knit. Squish it for yourself in the shop! 😊

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!

Christal knit our Perky Little Hat pattern in @malabrigoyarn #rasta in the Teal Feather colorway. This was a fun and quick knit, and there is enough yarn leftover for a pompom.... but we think it would look cute with a fur pom too - what do you think?
