This year as part of the Block of the Month, Stephanie decided to do a inexpensive 1 skein project each month.  It is a Free pattern when you purchase the yarn and they are great gift ideas for friends.  She is trying to keep them under $15 per month and several projects may cost a little more but may make 2 months worth of projects....


< This is a simple but pretty pattern for a Soap Pocket, a nice gift for a friend and a little different from a basic washcloth.  Add a bar of soap and the options are endless.  This was done with 1 ball of Mission Falls Cotton

> This is a Felted Bowl decorated with some applique' leaves for Fall, it took 1 skein of Cascade 220 and a little fabric and it is a great decoration and usefull too...candy bowl at my house.


The 3 in 1 Hat was a huge hit at the store, as the pictures show, it can be worn in multiple ways and looks great, a hat, a neck warmer or ear warmer...you may even think of a few other uses....  Stephanie did not want to mess up her hair so I had to use the dummy for these pictures...it would look better if she was the model.  It took 2 skeins of Mission Falls Supperwash 1824 Wool and we have another version in a child size done with the lighter weight wool as well.


< This is a Neck Cowl done with Plymount Alpaca Grande or Misti Alpaca, takes one skein and cost is around $15.  This was the January project

> This is the Boyfriends Scarf....or Husbands too...takes 1-2 skeins of Cascade 220 wool  at $7 per skein.  This was the April project


< This is a Felted Makeup bag or what ever else you want to use it for.  It was done with 1 skein of Cascade Hand Paints or any wool, less than $12 for make it.  This was the February Project

> This picture shows how we put a zipper in, lined it and added pockets.  A simple project that everyone can use.  The finishing was the March project


< This is a great Hat and Fingerless Gloves that will be the May and June projects....pattern will be available after the block of the month for May and June.  It uses 1 skein of Bo Peep Sock yarn for $19.95 and does 2 great projects. 

> THis is just a picture of the Knitters Bell we sell...holding a spot for the next months projects....


These are both 1 skein projects but are not part of the block of the month project, they both are a little more expensive than the monthly projects 

< This is the Cotton Shrug and is 1 skein of I Am Allergic to Wool...so easy to do and looks great.  $29.95

> Stephanie's Easy cap using Lumpy Bumpy, done on large needles and it is fast and fun to do and the colors of the yarn are great. $18.95
