This beauty is the Mmm Kerchief Cowl designed by Beanie Boat Designs. We loved the pattern and made the sample on display in the shop using 1 skein of gorgeous Urth Yarns Uneek DK along with 2 balls of Lana Gatto Merino for the cream contrast.

The result was so good that we have made up a kit for it in the shop, or you could select from one of the other gorgous colourways of Uneek DK and we can make up a kit that's tailored to you.

This week is Big Green Week.
Small changes can make a big difference e.g. using natural fibres or recycled yarns or switching to knitted or crocheted reusable dishcloths.

Have you tried recycled yarns? If not, now is a great time to as ReCreate and Wool Revival are both 10% off in store and online until Sunday.

New accessories from Cocoknits are available now. Cocoknits prioritise plant based, biodegradable and ethically sourced materials over traditional plastics whilst retaining functionality and style - good & gorgeous ❤️
