As with all Noro yarns, Furisode is brilliant with color and everything knitted, crocheted, and in this case – using the Broomstick Lace Technique – is really pretty.  Made from silk, cotton and wool, Furisode is very soft to the touch.

Sweet November Shawl/Scarf

Published on 30 October 2010 by in Events, Free Patterns, In the Shop

“Sweet November” is the project on all of our needles here at the Cottage.  We have fallen in love with this shawl/scarf that was inspired from the movie “Sweet November” (staring Charlize Theron) and  are having a blast feverishly knitting them in all colors. You will want to knit this and have several on hand for the approaching cooler weather. It is a perfect wrap for our moderate climate here in the south and a very easy knit. A great project for the beginner to the adventurous and will make a great gift for that “hard to shop for person” on your list.
