Free Pattern Friday – Frosted Leaves Wrap

Header Image showing the Frosted Leaves Wrap and Wool Pop Yarn

Hello and Happy Holidays, crafters! We hope you’ve enjoyed some quality time with your family or friends this holiday season, and also had time for your favorite fiber arts!

This week, our Free Pattern Friday release is the Frosted Leaves Wrap, designed by Andi Javori. Knit using Wool Pop, this lacy wrap will be a beautiful addition to any winter ensemble! Keep reading below to learn more about this stunning pattern.

The Frosted Leaves wrap is knit flat from the bottom up and features a lace stitch pattern worked on the main body of the piece. If you’re not an expert with lace, don’t fret! This pattern is a 13-stitch repeat that is fairly easy to memorize and uses only basic increases and decreases. The resulting pattern is reminiscent of pretty snow covered leaves, hence the name!

Our Wool Pop yarn was chosen for this project, thanks to its graceful drape and sheen. This DK-weight blend of bamboo, wool, and polyamide looks gorgeous in lace and other textured stitch patterns. Thanks to Wool Pop’s fiber blend, it’s suitable to wear year-round!

Designer Andi Javori chose the color 619 Blue Whisper for this project sample, which I think is a perfect icy winter blue. Which color would you choose to knit the Frosted Leaves Wrap in? I think I’d choose 627 Empress, because I love wearing purple.

We hope you enjoy knitting the new free Frosted Leaves Wrap! Don’t forget that Wool Pop is 20% off this weekend only to coincide with this pattern release, so you can grab the yarn you need at a discount!

Happy Holiday Crafting,

Aubrey

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,
