Cumulus, how i love thee

How Do I Love Thee? (Sonnet 43)
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
1806 –1861

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace....

Ok, enough with the schmaltzy poem...but I seriously believe it was written for my beloved Cumulus yarn!!

Last year I knit up this beautiful shawl named Iris (FREE pattern on Ravelry!!)with 2 colors of Cumulus (one solid, the other multicolored) and it started my love affair with this yarn.

Then, more recently, Hilde introduced me to the pattern Lollygag (another FREE pattern on Ravelry) and I knit up this cozy little cowl that was SO fun and had very, very little leftovers (I HATE LEFTOVERS!!!!)

I went looking for a baby blanket pattern last week...and stumbled upon this one, also knit with Cumulus, distributed by the same yarn shop as Lollygag (we have a type) AND also free on Ravelry!! This pattern is called Sliding is Fun and it was SUPER fun and easy to knit. And the color shifting cumulus paired with a solid made for a super cute knit (and BOY IS IT CUDDLY!!!)

We are placing an order today for more colors, so stay tuned for a squishy box of fun coming your way! Or check out what we already have in stock (Cumulus or Cumulus Degrade) and get started today!!

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!

Chemo Caps - Part 2

Please share this pattern with anyone who would like to knit a hat for someone in need! You can download your pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gia-chemo-cap
