Free Pattern Friday – Garden Tulip Shawl

It’s Friday again, and that means you get another pattern on us. You’re in for a treat with this one! Designed by Afifa Sayeed, the Garden Tulip Shawl is easy and breezy, with a center lace panel framed by fields of garter stitch. The floral beauty of this shawl is enhanced by delicate color transitions and a picot edging. Just a little fun, just a little flirty!

Rico Design’s Creative Cotton Camouflage boasts a stunning 634 yards in a single 200 gram ball, and guess what that means? You can make this shawl with only one ball of yarn! With a blend of 45% acrylic, 44% cotton, and 11% polyamide, this knits up into a super-soft and squooshy fabric with just the right amount of drape.

Creative Cotton Camouflage is 15% off through Sunday, so all you need to do is purchase ONE skein, and you’ve got it made! Or you soon will, anyway.

Better get stitching!

Free Pattern Friday – Marzipan Pullover

Welcome to March! We’re still seeing some cooler temperatures mixed in with the warmth of Spring, so today’s free pattern is our gorgeous Marzipan Pullover made in Major.

We love a good chunky weight knit, and this pattern is stylish and cute! A little lace, a dash of cables–check out the twisted ribbing at the hem, neck, and cuffs. Such flair, such class! Add this to your casual wardrobe for going out to brunch with your bestie, movie date with a significant other (it’s cold in those theaters, right?), or snuggle into your favorite pajama pants and curl up on the couch with your favorite book. The Marzipan Pullover is ready to go with you anywhere.

Major is a versatile 100% acrylic bulky weight yarn that holds up well over time and comes in giant 200 gram balls, making this project very affordable indeed. An absolute workhorse, this yarn is fantastic for hats, scarves, blankets, sweaters, you name it! The self-striping gives you fun colors without all the extra ends to weave in. This weekend, Major is on sale 20% off through Sunday. Come get you some!

Have a wonderful weekend and happy stitching!
