Perfect design for our current predicament. The Stay Home and Knit hat is only $1 and that money will then go towards hospital workers. They need all the help they can get right now. My lovely yarn rep, Erlinda, made this hat with 220 Superwash. She even added a cute pom pom! Find the pattern on Ravelry.

Want to work on some different knitting skills? This sampler cowl is the perfect project because it has lace, cables, bobbles, and even a cute little grape pattern. The pattern requires fingering weight yarn and 3 different size needles. There is a reason for this! Each section of the cowl has different stitches which end up giving you a different gauge. So in order to keep your cowl from looking bubble-y you need to switch needle sizes. Find this beautiful pattern on Ravelry.
