Thorn

February 10, 2013 1 min read

I was in the Leonardtown shop the other morning chatting with Mary, aka, the amazing hand-knitting machine.  She finds the cutest little patterns and just whips them up and brings them into the shop.  She is always working on something or other cool.  Her Thursday afternoon group is just finishing Rondelay , a beautiful shawl that uses short rows to create a beautifully shaped wrap with soft curves that's easy to wear.  It's written for beautiful Malabrigo Sock, but you could use the new Hazel Knits Artisan Sock or Shi Bui Sock if you prefer. 

Most recently, Mary started Thorn,  a fabulous new pattern with an unusual asymmetrical shape that reminds me of a bird's wing.
 



She's using two skeins of our beautiful new Heather Prime Alpaca from Galler Yarns.   This yarn is cousin to our best selling yarn, Peruvian Tweed.  Same soft hand, same generous 600-yard hanks, beautiful rich colors.
