Lovely Scarf by Pam!








































These lovely pictures and the great work are by Pam C, whose blog is WeaveSpinDance. She's using the Jungle colorway of Mini-Mochi and a free pattern from
MMochiCrochetFlowerGardenShawl which Pam converted to a scarf. I am so enamoured with the colors and how they've played off each other.

I love how the colors flow!

Mochi+ Mittens!

Cathy Campbell knit these gorgeous mittens with new Mochi+ on size 8 US needles - so they're a fun fast knit! The free pattern is available from the Crystal Palace Yarns website Mochi-Plus Mittenswhere you can also see all the wonderful colors that Mochi+ comes in! Mochi+

what's really fun is that Cathy also designed the same mittens to be knit in Mini-Mochi mittens so now you have your choice!

my lovely hat [if i do say so myself]

i



This hat pattern is up on the Crystal Palace Site MMHat. It was knit with the 101 Intense Rainbow colorway Mini-Mochi color card but would be fun in most colors.
My husband is eager to wear it - so it's pretty versatile!

The Mini-Mochi yarn is a joy to knit with - i can't stop myself from "one more row" each time, and i love watching things grow as i knit.
but i also love how knits and purls show you a different "face" of the color, so it's fun creating wee pattern variations to keep the colors popping. and finally, the top was a lot of fun to do even though it's simple - enjoy!

blessings, :L, drlaura
