Free Pattern Alert!

January 6, 2012

I love Cascade Yarns. They have an incredible variety of yarns, amazing colors, weights and fibers. My hands down favorite is their Alpaca Duo and the hat I made in it last year is super cozy and I always gets compliments on it.

I've been fortunate enough to get to edit two of their incredibly popular "60 Quick..." books from that beloved series. I edited their first one back when we first moved to DC:

And their latest when I was 1 week away from delivering Callum (but didn't know it at the time since he arrived 7 weeks early). Each book in this series gets better and better and when non knitters ask me what they should get for their knitting sister/mother/girlfriend/etc, I almost always recommend one of the "60 Quick..." books.

Not only do they have great, affordable yarn, but these are solid-to-the-Earth people. Family run, I haven't met anyone from the Cascade family who isn't kind or generous. I was asked last year to do a handful of patterns for them and they are just starting to debut online.

Up today and in their recent newsletter are the Eco Alpaca Cabled Wristers. Download it for FREE here or find it on Ravelry here.

Available a few weeks ago was the Mock Ribbed Watch Cap, also available for FREE here or on Ravelry here.

There were 3 other patterns I did for them so keep your eyes open for those!
