Knit Collage Cast Away Cowl

Cast Away is a new yarn from Knit Collage. It is hand spun with thick and thin qualities and  natural colors with pops of color making a beautiful melange yarn.

I knit a cowl out of the Oak colorway and I love it! it is so soft and warm! Oak is a beautiful blend of soft earth colors and the thick and thin quality makes this perfect for simple mindless knitting and produces a very unique, soft rustic fabric. This is a quick knit out of one skein and really will  be nice and cozy to wear when walking around town. 

This yarn would be perfect for a cozy knit vest or any other accessory like a hat, scarf or infinity scarf. Anything to keep you warm during cool winter months!

Happy New Year

A new year brings resolutions, goals and new knitting projects! I know of some people who sit down on the January 1 and make a list of what they want to make. Others I know keep going with projects as the inspiration hits. Either way, I am sure that 2014 will be full of beautiful yarns and projects. 

One thing that I have had my eye on for a while include Poppy by Ysolda Teague. This little doll is so cute I think it would be very fun to make and see her personality come out.

On quite the opposite end of the spectrum I am dying to work with some Knit Collage yarns, like their new line Cast Away. It is a very soft and colorful hand spun 100% wool yarn. It is so pretty when all balled up and waiting to be turned into something cozy.

The to-knit list for 2014 is going to be spectacular.
