    Codebreaker Cowl

    Last year, I read a book called The Berlin Letters by Katherine Reay. It was a lovely historical fiction novel set amidst the fall of the Berlin wall. I know. I know...right now you're thinking, but what does this have to do with yarn? Well, inspiration comes from many places, and on the cover of this book was a beautiful knit cowl with lovely drape that I knew I had to have. The problem...I don't knit. So, I set out to mimic it with crochet stitches instead.

    Elara Baby Blanket

    If there's one thing I love making more than any other project, it's a baby blanket. For this blanket, I wanted something classic and timeless, but not boring. I pulled some inspo from the Harbor Beanie and came up with the idea for this blanket. I love how it all came together!

By interlocking two layers of mesh as you work, you’ll produce fabrics that are reversible by design: some featuring matching motifs on both sides, others revealing a completely different pattern when flipped over.
