Sometimes the best way to figure out your next project is by finding a display sample that you like. When I look at some patterns, they seem ‘meh’ or not particularly to my liking. Many times I’ll fall in love with a sample, go to the pattern, and find myself thinking that it was really good that I saw the sample first because I’d have dismissed the pattern. It could be that the photograph didn’t grab me or the color of the yarn but I wasn’t interested. Thank goodness for samples!

Before we know it, warmer days will be here and we’ll be wanting to wear fabrics that will help us stay cool. Enter cotton! My Sister Knits just received a stunning variety of colors in DK weight Cascade Ultra Pima. Our shipment of worsted weight Blue Sky Fibers Organic Cotton is on the way! Now is the time to start thinking about what to make!
