look what just rolled into the shop . . . a ghastlie gallery – the latest edition to our favorite wicked family! find them here.
say hola to ohna! our latest pattern . . . a lightweight (the smallest size weighs just 50g!), eyelet capelet knit with Minkle, our latest a mink yarn with a touch of cashmere and sparkle! we designed Ohna to be an all-season layering piece that looks equally chic thrown on top of a tank top or cocktail dress. Knit on US7 needles, this lace weight yarn project zips along!
ohna is free with the purchase of the yarn required to make the project. just write “ohna” in the comments box and we’ll send you a hardcopy of the pattern. there’s no need to add the pattern into your cart to receive the offer.
