I'm so excited to FINALLY be able to "officially" tell you all about what I've been working on with the Caron folks for the past 9 months. At the end of this month, Sheep(ish) , the first yarn in my Stitch.Rock.Love line, will hit stores! It's a very versatile, roving yarn made in an acrylic/wool blend, which means super soft and equally easy to care for. It comes in 21 colors that I hand-picked; each representing a love for retro-chic style but with a modern sensibility. Here's a little video, where I talk about my inspiration behind the line.

 

Pssst! Guess what? Even though we have a few more weeks until Sheep(ish) hits shelves, you can get it before anyone else! Click on over to BuyCaron.com right NOW and be the very first to get the yarn, before it's in stores.

 

Need a project inspiration? Check the Cloverfield Cardigan I designed for Petite Purls. Knit in colors: Robin's Egg(ish) & Chartreuse(ish)--it's the perfect piece for your wee one this Spring!

Hope you love Sheep(ish) as much as I do. Oh, and check in frequently over at BuyCaron.com, for new patterns & scoop!

 

Stitch.Rock.Love,

 

 

 

Triangle Trellis Scarf
Soft and summery, Tammy Hildebrand's yummy Triangle Trellis Scarf is crocheted with Dazzleaire and Simply Soft®. The color combination is absolutely lovely, reminiscent of a deep ocean bay, and the open mesh stitch (worked in Dazzleaire) and beautiful picot edge (worked in Simply Soft) create what is sure to become a summer favorite

Cancun SpaTunic
We love NaturallyCaron.com Spa for summer. The bamboo-blend and slightly lighter weight are perfect for warmer temperatures. Designer Ann E. Smith clearly likes Spa, too, as she has used it to create an exquisite summer tunic. The Cancun Spa Tunic features a delicate eyelet stitch, gorgeous neckline and hem details.

Perdido Baby Blanket
Reminiscent of an heirloom quilt, Delma Myers's Perdido Baby Blanket, crocheted in bamboo-blend Spa, is a light and lovely summer-weight baby blanket. We love the diagonally placed squares and Delma's counterpoint use of color.
