It’s whimsical, colorful, and substantial. It absolutely is a scarf, but can also be a throw, an accent piece for your home…
Kristy Glass here, and welcome to Christmas in July! I know, it may seem crazy to already be thinking about Christmas. Admit it, you secretly had your holiday playlist playing on that weekend car trip the other day….oh wait, that was me. Handmade gifts for the holidays are the BEST gifts. Not only is it…
It’s time to put together the Rio Rancho Cardigan! I suggest laying out the finished pieces and making sure the pieces are the right size and length etc. I found I did not need to block my pieces, as the nature of this yarn, along with the seed stitch, give the fabric a lot of…
