It’s time to turn those random single skeins into something beautiful and fun!
I’ll admit it. I have so many single skeins of yarn that I overbought for projects that never happened, or that didn’t take as much yarn as I thought they would. It’s so hard to resist a half-off sale – especially when it’s that hand-spun, hand-dyed cashmere!
Our unofficial office survey revealed that it’s not just me, either. We all have a small collection of single skeins, which is why we’re introducing the One-Skein Knitting Collection. 27 skeins. 27 patterns. 27 projects you can finish in no time, and you’ll want to wear all the time.
Who’s ready to start? Grab your favorite skein and give it a new purpose in life. Let’s take a look at the new patterns in the special One-Skein Knitting Collection.
Felix Knotted Scarf
Felix is a fun scarf to add to an outfit in any season, and it’s a fantastic project for a beginning knitter looking for something more interesting than a rectangular scarf. Finish the scarf with tassels, and tie it together when you wear it for the perfect accessory.
You work this scarf from side to side with minimal shaping to make the points at each end. The best part is that it’s easy enough to work that you can make more and surprise all your friends who tell you how beautiful it is.
Crisial Cowl
This cowl gets its name from Welsh word for crystal – “crisial.” Inspired by the geometric shapes of crystals, the Crisial Cowl uses a simple two-stitch cable to achieve a classic, textural piece that’s ideal in any season. You can work this with aran or heavy worsted weight yarn – they both work well with this project. And it’s easy to customize by adding or subtracting repeats. Trust me, you’ll want to make a few of these to match with any outfit!
The Path to Knitting Success
The patterns in the One-Skein Knitting Collection are specially-picked to help you succeed. Beginning knitters can feel pride in creating a new scarf or headband. Experienced knitters can relax and have some fun revisiting some classic patterns.
Every pattern in this collection, and in fact, every pattern we publish in I Like Knitting, comes complete with:
- A complete list of all the yarns and tools
- Row by row instructions
- Special stitch instructions
- Pattern notes
- Detailed, full-color photography
It really is as easy as possible to create stunning pieces. Check out some more of the patterns in the One-Skein Knitting Collection.
Hazel Cabled Headband Ear Warmer
This pattern is a lot easier than it looks. The trendy headband effortlessly combines texture and color in a cable and braid design. The final product is 22” in length and fastens with three buttons you sew on to finish.
Cora Clutch
It’s hard to believe this cute little clutch only takes one skein of yarn, but when you use a mixed-colored yarn, like the Mixed Berry we used here, you can get some truly beautiful patterns. The Cora also looks great as a single color, too. You’ll knit this textured clutch in the round, and for added durability, this pattern also includes a fabric lining and a zipper.
Makenna Striped Scarf
Here’s another pattern that takes advantage of a multi-colored cake of yarn. The Makenna Striped Scarf is fun and easy to make, and once you get going, you won’t need the pattern, so it’s perfect for on-the-go knitting. And the finished result is absolutely stunning!
The secret here is that the yarn directs your knitting. When the color changes, it’s time to change stitches. Because this scarf is so quick to work up, it makes an ideal gift that anyone would love to receive.
Knitting like never before!
Get started on your first knitting project ever, or finally use that skein that’s sitting in your basket waiting for just the right pattern. No matter how much or how little experience you have, the One-Skein Knitting Collection is full of inspiration, and will give you something to try no matter what that skein is made of:
- Super Fine is Divine: A skein of superfine Merino Wool feels simply wonderful. Use it for the Felix Knotted Scarf and you won’t be able to keep your hands away from it.
- Go Bulky: Soft as soft can be, a superwash bulky wool helps the Crisial Cowl work up easily. You’ll love the way a bulky wool glides from skein to needle to finished project.
- Medium Weight Merino: Thinner and softer than regular wool, and naturally luxurious, Merino wool is the perfect yarn for the Hazel Cabled Headband Ear Warmer. Helps keep you warm when it’s cold out, and keeps you cool when it’s warm out!
- Feeling Content with Cotton: You can make so much with a cotton/acrylic blend, like the Makenna Striped Scarf. Light and breezy cotton is the perfect choice for so many warm-weather patterns.
Don’t let those single skeins gather dust anymore. It’s time to make something fun.
