Nurmilintu

Show off the gorgeous colorways of Dream in Color Smooshy in the Nurmilintu! This is a really pretty garter stitch and lace shawlette  that is easily adjustable to any size. We used just one skein of Smooshy, but you could use two and make a super cozy shawl.

 

Rose Cardigan

The super sweet Rose cardigan is full of dainty details that will be so adorable on your little one! Knitted top-down and seamlessly, you will be done with this in a jiffy! We used new Big Bad Wool Weepaca, the softest of soft fine washable merino and alpaca. You will love this yarn!

 

Watercolors

Also knit in Weepaca, this cuddly baby blanket will be every child's favorite.Watercolors uses a playful blend of color, texture and stitch patterns for a fun knit that will keep you interested.

 

Bloom Striped Cowl

Get ready for winter with the Bloom Striped Cowl! This cowl combines two yarns, Trendsetter Duchess and Universal Bamboo Bloom Handpaints. Duchess is a cashmere and wool blend that lends a ton of softness, while Bamboo Bloom's silky bamboo portions give the cowl a nice drape. Thicker wool portions pop out for texture and interest. This would be a great cowl to knit for a gift!

 

A Note from Christina, Organizer of Threads of Kindness:

Hello everyone...I'd like to invite you to join a group that is very near to my heart as I know it is for many of you.  We are working to provide hospice patients in middle Tennessee with a blanket or shawl for a little comfort at a time when they may most need it and preemie blankets and hats to many of the Nashville's Neo-Natal units.  If you think this giving opportunity may be right for you, please reach out to us.  We are fortunate to have generous yarn donations from Haus of Yarn helping us along our way and would love to share our stash with you.
