What's On Our Needles?

Pattern: Pressed Flowers Shawl by Amy Christoffers 

Yarn: Silky Wool by Elsebeth Lavold and Simply Spectacular DK by Emma's Yarn 

This beautiful mosaic knit will bring a field of flowers into your winter-scape to keep you warm. Kitty is using Silky Wool for the Main Color and Emma's DK as the contrast color.  

Pattern: Touchstone by Fogbound Knits 

Yarn: Varanasi by Katia 

From Ravelry.com: Sometimes you need to just wind up that recent yarn purchase and knit for the pure joy of it. To remember why you knit. The combination of a simple stitch pattern and garter stitch in this shawl make it ideal for highly variegated yarns, but it will be equally beautiful in any solid color you love. 

Pattern: Yume by Isabell Kraemer 

Yarn: Zooey by Juniper Moon Farm 

Yume is a beautiful sweater knit seemlessly from the top down with fingering/sport weight yarn. Lightweight but warm and oh so soft, this sweater will be perfect for our Louisiana winter and spring.

Pattern: Rose Cottage Cowl by Helen Stewart 

Yarn: Phullu by Marisol 

From Ravelry.com: The Rose Cottage Cowl features a handsome braid cable panel against a background of stockinette stitch for a minimalist modern twist on a traditional design motif.

Using two different colors (including variegated yarns) or a single color, you can make a unique Crunching Leaves Cowl. The “Woven Stitch” has the appearance of something woven on a loom but is simple enough for a beginner to complete.
