For the Marilyn Wrap/Scarf Kit - Click Here

When I wanted to create a wrap and scarf that is truly reversible, I searched through my collection of over 200 reversible stitch patterns. Then selected a few that are equally beautiful on both sides. This design uses eight patterns that are mirrored in a sequence from end to end. The result is 16 different stitches.

For the yarn, I decided on two options: Basis, a blend of cotton, alpaca and cashmere; or Solo Lino, 80% recycled linen, 20% linen. Both are remarkable. Basis because its 75% cotton but you’re sure to believe it is entirely alpaca and cashmere. It does not feel, look or knit like a yarn that’s mostly cotton. The blended strand of alpaca and cashmere is wrapped in micro thin strands of cotton, which leave a glow of ultra-soft coziness. And Solo Lino because it doesn’t have the stiffness of linen yarn, instead its delightfully silky.

For Diana Snowflake Wrap - Click Here

This could be the softest, lightest scarf you will ever make.

When I first saw Ecopuno yarn in white I immediately thought of light, fluffy snow. Snowflakes melt in your hand and this yarn seems to do the same.

I began to conceive snowflakes, large and small, fashioned from tiny eyelets. But I found all the options for creating eyelets disappointing. Needing them to be symmetrical, I created my own unique stitch. So, as you work this pattern, you’ll learn the new James’ Symmetrical Eyelet stitch.

And you’ll discover that this blend of the softest cotton with merino and alpaca is remarkable. What makes it so remarkable is the fact that it is 75% cotton, but you’re sure to believe it is entirely merino and alpaca. It is like knitting with air, when the air is filled with delicate snowflakes.

For Audrey Mosaic Wrap Kit including yarn, pattern, unique StitchSaver™ Row Checker and backpack project bag – Click Here

This design will surprise you for two reasons. It may look complicated, but you’ll discover it’s rather simple. The mosaic knitting technique is the most delightful way to do color work. You knit each row with only one color at a time incorporating slip stitches and eliminating half of the floats on the back side of your fabric. The second surprise is the yarn. Ecopuno looks, feels and behaves like the beautiful blend of alpaca and merino that it is, but it’s 72% cotton. So, be prepared to be surprised as you work this project and delighted when you finish it.
