New Inventory Alert! Cascade Anthem Chords & Anthem Rondo

I am OB.SESSED. with knitting a wavy blanket. Of course, this infatuation hits right at the hottest time of the year!!! At first I thought it was crochet, and decided to put the project on hold as I'm nursing a little case of tendonitis (although at this point I think it's just a permanent case of tendonitis!) but then I opened the pattern to discover it is KNIT!!!!!! My grandma knit a pattern just like it when I was little and I have her handwritten pattern....so I think this means it is all meant to be!

I have been noticing more and more of these blankets on couches in the background of TV shows and movies. It's one of those things where you focus on something and start noticing it everywhere!!!!

So, all this to say....I bought yarn for the shop because I went down a rabbit hole based on a blanket I really don't need to be knitting. THEN I found some variegated worsted and I have been receiving requests for that....so they jumped onto my order form too!

Let me introduce you to Anthem Chords a 100g worsted weight variegated yarn (You can find it instore or online HERE)

And Anthem Rondo is a 200g cake with LONG color changes (the one I want to use for the blanket)

(you can find this yarn in-store or online HERE)

You can find lots of pattern inspiration for Anthem Rondo HERE plus Anthem Chords AND the pattern for the blanket pictured above.

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!): Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here: Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!

This eliminates the purl stitches looking a little funky (if you know, you know). We decreased by 25% of the stitches about halfway through the cowl to allow the top of the cowl to be a little closer to the neck and the bottom spread over your shoulders if you want to wear it that way! We gave you little check boxes to check off as you complete repeats. **PATTERN** Using Main Color, CO92, place stitch marker and join in the round Round 1: (K2, P2) Repeat parentheses all the way around Repeat Round 1 six more times ⃞ ⃞...
