Free Pattern Friday – Coffee Shop Set

Happy Free Pattern Friday! The holiday season is upon us, and as the weather cools down, we know you’re thinking of what cozy accessory to knit next. Our free pattern this week is just the treat for you!

The Coffee Shop Set is new this week, and was designed by me! This is a cabled hat and scarf set knit using our soft and delightful Colorburst yarn. Keep reading to learn more about this freebie!

Cables stand out against the self-shading hues of Colorburst, creating a three-dimensional texture that is a joy to knit and wear. The cabled stitch pattern has an easy-to-memorize repeat, so knitters of a variety of skill levels are sure to enjoy creating this set! The Coffee Shop Set Scarf is long enough to double around your neck on cold days, or wear it my favorite way: in a keyhole style! A matching hat with a fluffy pom pom on top completes the look, and after that, you’re ready for winter weekend fun.

Our Colorburst yarn is a single-ply blend of 65% superwash fine merino and 35% acrylic. The wool gives this DK-weight yarn a springy feel, with the added benefits of soft, machine-washable acrylic. Each colorway of Colorburst offers a medley of hues that gently shade from one to the next.

I adore Colorburst for all types of knit and crochet projects, but it looks especially beautiful in stand-out garments and accessories. Pair it with a solid color of Deluxe DK Superwash for even more possibilities!

The Coffee Shop set would be a perfect pattern to bring along to your holiday gatherings. Just one skein of Colorburst is needed, so it’s travel-friendly! Tell us in the comments which color you’d use to create yours.

Colorburst is 20% off this weekend on our website, so shop now and create your Coffee Shop Set in no time!

Happy Crafting,
