Be Simple Variations - knit in Zauber Perlen |
|
Zauber Perlen (Magic Pearls in German) is a unique fingering weight yarn. Each mini ball yields about 63 yards of yarn and you see how they've managed the plies to create a gradient or 'fade' across the ring. The full 7 ball ring gives you 100 grams and about 440 yards of 100% very soft merino yarn.
We used one ring to knit up Be Simple Variations, a FREE pattern by Carolyn Glauz-Todrank, available on Ravelry.
We think you'll fall in love with Zauber Perlen as there are so many ways you can use this fun, colorful, and unique yarn.

Spessottile yarn and a new design |
|
Seaweed Poncho - knit with Spessottile |
|
The latest design from Kris Gregson features Spessottile a new thick and thin cotton yarn from Trendsetter!
The yarn has a unique construction in that it's a stretchy cotton tube that cotton fibers are blown in creating a thick and thin yarn that easily creates textured pieces.
Spessottile, which means "Thick Thin" in Italian, works up as a heavy worsted to bulky.
The Seaweed Poncho is very simple as it's all knit so it's accessible for all levels of knitters! It's also done on US 10s, so it works up fast. Pick your favorite color, order 6 balls, download the pattern, and before you know it, you'll have a new piece! We think this will be your favorite summer 'go-to' piece.
