"Who says lace is just for summer? In this issue, we explore lace for winter with several big, bold winter lace designs and a handful of fine lace designs, to add a light touch of lace to your burly winter garb. And socks! We have three ways to make socks, including fabulous Pamir slip-stitch socks. Maire Treanor's series on Clones lace continues with two shamrock designs. Add some jackets and vests, as well as a blanket, and it all adds up to 22 projects to cheer you through winter."

Indispensable Capelet



I love the look of this Capelet! It's such a beautiful yet simple application of Malabrigo Rios. The only hitch is the pattern is written in French, but if you are comfortable with a little translation it's an easy peasy project! Here are a few hints: rang = round/row, maille/s = stitch/es.






L'Indispensable chauffe-épaules

(Indispensable Capelet)

  • 3 to 4 skeins Malabrigo Rios
  • 5mm-29" circular needles (or 24")
  • 5mm-16" circular needle, or double pointed needles, or use magic loop

A neat bag for a Noro



This bag is a freebie from Interweave, and as soon as I saw it I knew it would look stunning made up with a Noro yarn (Silk Garden or Taiyo - both currently on sale 25% off until Dec 24th) - it reminds me a little of the Sunflower Satchel
