Collection Spotlight – Back to School: Home

Moving is about more than unpacking boxes; it’s about decorating a place to truly feel like home. Our Back to School: Home collection brings cozy vibes and big personality to even the smallest dorm room. Featuring four quick and satisfying projects, this collection is designed to mix and match, adding layers of softness and school spirit to every corner. Customize each piece with your favorite team colors for a look that’s uniquely yours. Introducing Alma Mater, Ivy League, and School Spirit, designed by Alexandra Frankel, and Study Buddy, designed by Amy Gunderson.

Curl up under the Alma Mater blanket, knit in our brand new Uptown Bulky yarn. Chunky cables, wide ribs, and spirited stripes combine to create a plush, polished throw rich in texture and classic style.

Knit in colorful Uptown Bulky, Ivy League exemplifies preppy style and collegiate flair. Tossed onto your bed, couch, or favorite comfy chair, this argyle throw pillow brings a pop of vibrance and handmade charm.

Let your colors fly with School Spirit! This festive pennant bunting brightens up any space with bold solids and cheerful stripes. Pairing fan-favorites Uptown Worsted and Deluxe Worsted Superwash, School Spirit is a cinch to stitch and a joy to display.

Meet Study Buddy! This adorable teddy bear is the perfect companion for all your academic adventures. Featuring both knit and crochet elements in Uptown DK, Uptown Bamboo DK, Ricorumi DK, and Ricorumi Furry Furry, this cuddly pal is an engaging project that puts your skills to the test. 

Shop the individual patterns on Ravelry, or pick up the complete e-book, including all four designs. And this weekend only, we’re offering 15% off ALL yarns, so you can stock up on everything you need to make the projects in the Back to School: Home collection or anything else in your queue!
