The cashmere we waited a year for! 😅
We've been waiting almost a year for this luscious, luxury yarn from Malabrigo to arrive! "Caprino" is Spanish for "goat," a nod to the 20% cashmere combined with 80% superfine merino that makes this yarn next-to-your-neck soft.
Loretta made "Doo Wop" by Lisa Hannes using 2 skeins each of Natural, Plomo, and Matisse Blue on Size 6 and 7 needles. Big color blocks, garter stripes and a graphic mosaic motif create a fascinating interplay color and texture in this eye-catching shawl. Tassels at the tips give it a fun finish!
Loretta chose Natural, Plomo, and Matisse Blue for her piece.
Crocheters will love the "Hominy, Too" mitts that Loops Trooper Sherri designed using just ONE skein of Caprino. The mitt pattern is free with purchase of Caprino upon request.

We've been selling out of Kim Dyes Yarn Soufflé Bulky for months now, so we were tickled pink (or blue?) when Kim agreed to dye more kits for the Fisherman's Rib cowl after we sold out the first day.
Now they are back in stock!
Your kit includes one skein of Speckled Robin's Egg and one skein of Dandelion in Kim Dyes Souffle Bulky.
This design is a modification of Susan B. Anderson's "Co.wl." We cast on 64 stitches on a size 11 needle for a piece that hugs your neck and fits right inside your coat.
Grab your Souffle here before it sells out again! 🏃🏽♀️
