What's On Our Needles

Pattern: Joanna by Matthew Schrank

Yarn: Cairns by Queensland Collection

A fun saw tooth edge, colorful stripes, and an interesting mesh stitch make this shawl exciting to knit and wear. Knit with just two skeins of yarn, you will be finished in no time and sporting your new shawl!

Pattern: Northbound by Janina Kallio 

Yarn: Inka by Mirasol Yarn

From Ravelry.com:

The open lace may look intricate, but the pattern has a clear rhythm that’s satisfying to knit. You work this rectangular scarf sideways, and the size is fully customisable from a skinny scarf to a large, lofty wrap.

The real danger is how well it works with any yarn. Linen or alpaca, rustic or silky, cobweb or bulky. Each yarn transforms Northbound into something entirely new.

So don’t be surprised if you find yourself planning a second version before the first one is even off the needles.
