HOLI AMIS

HoliAmis are approximately 7" tall. Knit in the round on size #1 double points, with Frog Tree Sport Weight Alpaca. They also call for Fun Fur (for the hair), so check your stash! They have a wire armature so you can pose them or secure them to your Christmas tree!

SHEEPY TRIM HATS AND MITTS

5 patterns using the fabulous Taiga by Schulana. I was so excited when I found this yarn, I couldn't stop at just one design. When knit up the Taiga looks just like sherpa. It is wool for added warmth. The model is my niece, Christy. Isn't she cute!

JoJo Cap

JoJo Cap is made with worsted weight (Sample shown uses JoJoLand Rhythm). The brim is knitted in as you go so there is no sewing after your done.

DooScarf

This is a cute summer scarf made with cotton (sample shown uses Origami). The pattern is a one size fits all but has instructions for both DK weight and worsted weight yarn.

Yarn Harbor in Duluth Minnesota

Hand delivered my trunk show to Yarn Harbor. Spent a few hours with the girls there knitting. Everyone was so nice (of course knitters always are)! Got a few pointers on how to clean a dirty fleece to prepare it for spinning. Thanks to Kathy for having me.
