You'll love the pillowy softness of Nuvola, a fluffy cloud of Falkland wool that gives you all the warmth without the weight. The lofty construction creates finished fabrics that are incredibly lightweight for a bulky yarn, so your cozy knits never feel heavy. It works up quickly on both needles and hooks, making it perfect for those projects you want to finish fast and wear all season. And as always, Berroco has great pattern support for their yarns.

Berroco's Nuvola is a bulky-weight 90% Falkland wool/10% nylon. Each 100-gram skein has 106 yards. Hand wash. $15

Azure is an open-front cardigan complete with pockets and the kind of cozy fit that makes you never want to take it off. This is your grab-and-go layer for chilly mornings, crisp afternoon walks, and everything in between. 9-18 balls.

Seawind is knit from the bottom-up beginning with the hems and then joining to work the body in the round to the underarms. One shoulder seam is seamed and the other features a button placket. 7-13 balls

Simple ribbing and garter stitch come together in the Sandbanks scarf that knits up fast and gets worn constantly. The generous scarf length means serious warmth. 6 balls. Make the matching hat with 2 balls.

Chunky Wool is beautifully spun from 100% pure wool, and easy to knit. It gives beautiful texture and warmth to your projects. The rich natural fibers bring the best of both worlds: lasting strength and unbeatable coziness. They have several patterns dedicated to this line. Chunky Wool will felt and can be used for felted projects.

Rowan's MODE Chunky Wool is a bulky-weight 100% wool. Each 100-gram skein has 109 yards. Hand wash. $14.50

The Highoak Hat takes just one ball of the yarn and would knit up in a quick minute. Grab a fun pompom for the top. You can make a matching snood with 3 balls.

Watton is a cozy roll neck pullover with an all-over seed stitch pattern. It's sure to keep you warm on cold nights. 9-17 balls.

These ingenious Nr 3 Doble Tofler slippers are a double layer of felted warmth. Multiple sizes available. 2-4 total balls.

Juicy DK is the Farmer's Daughter Fiber's most popular base! Being 8-ply, Juicy DK is a workhorse while still being soft and having impeccable stitch definition, making it a truly versatile yarn. You can use Juicy for any fiber arts project; sweaters, hats, scarfs, shawls, socks, she does it all. Very soft and the hand dyed colors show up beautifully.

Farmer's Daughter Juicy DK is a DK-weight 100% superwash merino wool. Each 100-gram skein has 274 yards. Machine washable. $32

The Oslo Hat is worked from the bottom up in stockinette stitch. The brim is doubled up and folded back for a very warm hat, especially over your ears. This extremely popular hat takes only 1 skein for most sizes, single stranded.

The gorgeous hand-dyed colors would enhance any basic design, like a plain cardigan. The Amesbury Cardigan has a saddle shoulder construction providing a modern twist on a classic and versatile shape. The cardigan is worked from the top down. 5-9 skeins.

The Briochedge hat is showing little leaves all around and a wonderful crown solution. The pattern is made in Merino DK and surprisingly simple when it comes to the crown. The hat has a brim, is very stretchy, slightly slouchy and well-fitting at the same time. The Juicy DK has great stitch definition for this project. 1+1 skeins.

Stratto's fun, fluffy texture and vibrant marled colors bring serious personality to every project. The soft halo is wonderfully warm, but the mostly-cotton blend keeps your knits wearable from fall through spring. Surprisingly lightweight and squishy to work with, it knits up quickly into pieces with great texture and all-natural fibers you'll get excited about.

Berroco's Stratto is a bulky-weight blend of 74% cotton/26% merino wool. Each 50-gram skein has 65 yards. Hand wash. $12

Coloma is an oversized boyfriend cardigan with all the right details: raglan sleeves, button-front closure, and a perfectly slouchy fit. It’s an effortless grab-and-go layer. Berroco Stratto’s marled colors add visual interest without any extra effort on your part. 11-26 balls.

The classic ribbed turtleneck gets a refresh with contrast color blocking at the neck and cuffs. Cozy meets cool in the fitted Peltier pullover that pairs just as well with vintage jeans as it does with your favorite wide-leg trousers. 11-26 balls.

Color-blocked stripes meet chunky ribbing in the Burke hat that’s equal parts bold and comfy. Mix and match the colorways, hat uses 2+1 balls.

Aran yarn is the original 100% wool yarn traditionally used to knit cable sweaters in coastal regions of Britain and Ireland, with the Irish island of Aran giving it its name. Aran yarn has always been worsted spun and hank dyed, and this follows the traditional methods with an additional organic based softener that’s applied after dying. The shades in this range are inspired by fishermen and the coastline.

Baa Ram Ewe's Coast is an aran-weight 100% British wool. Each HUGE 200-gram skein has 336 yards. Hand wash. $38

The Multigrain is a comfy, midweight pullover in 10 sizes. Knit from the bottom up in the round with raglan shaping. The cozy, “grandpa sweater” look combines a knit/purl waffle texture with braided cabled seamlines and narrow stripe details—in both crew neck and V-neck options. 4-7 skeins.

The Westport Pullover is an all-over cable knit pullover and is completely inspired by the classic Irish Aran knit sweaters. It has the look of a pullover than is meant to be worn when wandering around the Irish countryside, yet has the spirit of a hard-wearing work garment due to the chosen yarn. The pullover is worked top-down and in the round once the front and back are joined. 3-5 skeins.

This hat is named for Esthwaite Water, a sapphire lake set in the verdant hills of northern England. From this region comes the Baa Ram Ewe yarn that inspired the design: a heathered fiber that is at the same time sturdy and soft to the touch.

Sock yarns can be so magic. Not only does this one stripe, but the stripes create their own ombre effect. Fabulous in a variety of projects from socks to shawls, to baby sweater, to hats. I also love a self striping yarn in granny squares.

Urth's Uneek Fi*****ng is a fi*****ng weight 100% superwash merino. Each 100-gram skein has 435 yards. Machine washable. $29

The Butterfly - Papillion Shawl is one of the most popular projects with this yarn. The long transition of colors look so cool. We also are stocking the Harvest Fi*****ng ($29) to use as the solid background color. 2+1 skeins.

Tanis Lavallee's Trusty Toe-Up Sock recipe is a great blank slate for the self-striping yarn. One skein makes a pair.

The Sockhead Slouch is a slouchy, comfy hat, perfect project for that one skein of sock yarn that is way too special to put on your feet. Fair warning: there is miles of stockinette stitch, so this makes for great TV, travel or zen knitting.

The super soft quality Baby Cozy Organic Cotton Cashmere is a baby yarn made of organic cotton with cashmere content. It is made of 100% natural fibres and, thanks to the cashmere fibres, is cuddly soft and still machine washable in the delicate cycle.

Rico's Baby Cozy is a sport-weight blend of 90% cotton/10% cashmere. Each 50g skein has 159 yards. Machine washable. $13.60

There is fabulous pattern support for both knitters and crocheters in the Rico Baby Booklet. From hats to rompers to blankets, it has it all for $15. This yarn is perfect for babies, easy care and soft! Rico has a free cardigan pattern on their website that uses 3-4 balls.

The Riptide Tee is an elegant semi-cropped summer tee. The soft rounded V-neck merges at a perfect depth and flows into the body to carry the riptide stitch pattern via a central panel to the hem, where the tee is finished with a simple garter and eyelet stitch.

Summertide is worked seamlessly from the top down. The upper part of the yoke uses a beautiful combination of increases that highlights the shoulders.

The tweed effect of Super Soxx Tweed 6-ply adds visual interest as you knit and gives the finished socks a rustic look, without the rustic feel. The 6-ply sock yarns combine South American Corriedale fibers with nylon for added durability. Thicker than classic 4-ply sock yarn, they knit up more quickly and are ideal for warm, long-lasting favorite socks.

Lang's Super Soxx 6-ply Tweed is a sport weight blend of 67% wool/25% nylon/8% viscose. Each 150-gram skein has 455 yards. Machine washable. $34

The Caramel Sauce socks are designed for sport weight yarn, so even though the stitch counts are not very big, the size of the socks accomplished is medium to large.

I love the instep detail of the Spare Rib Socks. Mostly a garter rib cuff with a simple little cable and some lovely shaping.

A good basic sock, for both men and women would be the Holme Socks. They incorporate a short row heel.

All of these patterns would require only one ball.
