Save the planet one stitch at a time!
We'd like to introduce a brand new yarn from Caron— Simply Soft Eco. Every 10 skeins of this soft new yarn saves 6 plastic bottles from America's landfills. Simply Soft Eco is a new blended yarn that consists of 80% of our Simply Soft fiber and 20% of a specially processed fiber produced from recycled plastic bottles. Simply Soft Eco is available at Wal-Mart in a broad palette of 34 solid and heathered shades. Keep in mind that you can use Simply Soft Eco in any pattern that calls for a worsted weight yarn, including Simply Soft. Take a look and learn more here.
Free Patterns
We've asked some of our favorite designers to dream up new patterns for Simply Soft Eco. Check out Kim Drouin's glorious Pineapple Shawl, a lacy crocheted masterpiece that showcases the softness and drape of Simply Soft Eco beautifully. For our knitters, we offer a lovely, classic Cabled Vest with long, flatterng lines and our easy Aran Baby Blanket that offers the fun of easy aran patterning. And to celebrate our freedom in this election year, you might want to crochet this clever Vote Tote.
