If you like options, you’ll love this versatile hat and ear warmer.

Designer Knitting Pattern
With one pattern you can choose to knit a luxuriously soft ear warmer or, if you prefer, a hat that will keep the entire head warm. And there is an additional bonus. Both the hat and ear warmer are reversible, made up of two light-weight layers. The outer layer includes a decorative band of Fair Isle pattern. Pick from two classic patterns—gingham check or chevron—to customize your knit. The inner layer, which is seamlessly knit off of the outer layer, features solid bands of color. Both layers are worked in the round and are attached at the peak of the hat and/or along the edges. Turn the lined hat or ear warmer inside out for a dramatically different look and you’ve got one classy accessory that’s actually two.

On those summer nights when there is a bit of chill in the air or you’re on the beach at sunset, a light and airy wrap can feel just right. And when you’re traveling a versatile fashion accessory that doubles as a wrap or a scarf is the ideal addition to your wardrobe. The Jo Anne wrap/scarf is designed for Solo Lino, the almost unbelievably soft recycled linen. This sport weight wonder is a delight to knit and feels wonderful against your skin. The fact that the durable 100% linen gets softer with each washing means over time you’ll love it even more.

This truly simple project is designed to be relaxing. So, just cast on, then knit the same stitch every row and bind off. How’s that for relaxation?

I’ve resisted yarns with polyester…until now.

When I was introduced to Popcycle, HiKoo’s blend of 50% recycled plastic bottles and 50% bamboo, I was amazed. It is exceptionally soft with a wonderful hand, yet cool and extremely strong. It looks beautiful due to a subtle tweed effect that is the result of each fiber taking the color differently when dyed. But the best part is there are 2 plastic bottles in each hank of yarn. A study in 2016 showed that Americans consumed 50 billion plastic bottles and only recycled 23%. Just one million plastic bottles recycled saves 250 barrels of oil and eliminates 180 metric tons of CO2 emissions from being released into the atmosphere. So, knitting with this sturdy, soft, cool, beautiful fingering weight yarn feels good in more ways than one.

Worked in the fisherman’s rib stitch you have all the nice benefits of brioche-style knitting but in a simple, loveable 2-row repeat.

Designer Knitting Pattern
Each of the nine colorways results in a cowl that is both beautiful and very cozy.

This yarn is the result of an international love affair between a colorful German and an elegant Peruvian. Zauberball Crazy and Sueño DK are a perfect couple. Each of the dual plies of Zauberball Crazy are dyed in distinctive variegations before being twisted together. The color blending is seductive. While the pairing of superwash merino and bamboo makes for a Peruvian yarn that you simply can’t resist.
