It's that wonderful time of year known as Malabrigo March once again! You can read more about the festivities here, but basically I just wanted to let you know that all my Malabrigo patterns are 20% on Ravelry with the code "youvegotmal" (yeah I went there.)
The full list of participating patterns is here in my group but I thought I'd feature a few of my faves:
A Most Bespeckled Hat
A classic cutie, popular with those looking for low-stress colorwork and polkadot fans
Brimley
My personal favorite for winter because of the wide, double-layered brim - so cozy!
Chevzam & Zam Hat
Easy and fun colorwork- these have been real crowd favorites!
Doublish
An oldie but a goodie- a simple sock yarn shawl from the first Go Go Malabrigo collection.
Kotiya
Quirky, pom-pom heavy, and oddly a little...sultry? Nah, it's probably just the matching lipstick and pompom. (A trend which is almost certainly in for 2014, right?)
Polaris
You're a star!! Or else, you're the band that sang the Pete & Pete theme song.
Varia
Scallops are sweet & trendy, and look even better with gradient colors. Varia's sister Pétoncle is a lot of fun too! Both are great for beginning colorwork-ers, since you only have to strand on a few rows.
There are many, many more eligible patterns than this (I, er, use Mal a LOT, especially the Worsted) but there's a smattering for ya!
In all honesty, Malabrigo is one of my very favorite yarn brands (and I'm not just saying that 'cause I work for them part time- it's the other way around!) and I'm glad to have a chance to parade my Mal knits around and spread the obsession. I urge you to check out the festivities in the Malabrigo Junkies group and, if you haven't already, get your hands on some Mal so you can fall in love too!
Yes, Mal worsted is so uber-squishy; what's not to love? Cute hat parade you've got there...
