Pattern Highlights: December

With all of the activities that come along with the holiday season, you may not have had the time to keep up with all of the delightful patterns that were released in December. Here's a rundown of just some of our favorites!

The Granny Square Blanket from Miriam Felton can help you knock off a number of your New Year's Resolutions - using up stash, learning to knit or crochet (you'll need both!), and working on your color play!

The Geometry Shawl by Nina Machlin Dayton uses just a bit of worsted yarn to add a striking line of contrast to a fingering-weight shawl.

Taiga Hilliard has released several patterns this month, all in Cricket! They would also be fabulous in For Better or Worsted. Shown below: Ellie Shawlette (in Curry), Camille Shawlette (in Hyacinth), and Alana (in Fiona).

This diaphanous Nimbus shawl was created by ArtQualia Designs. Knit in Milky Way, the shawl has glittering beads worked into the lace, representing the raindrops that accompany Nimbus clouds. 

And last, but not least, the incredible Meeks Bay shawl that Romi Hill released as part of her Pins & Lace Club. Club members received Meridian in Romi's exclusive colorway, Keep Tahoe Blue.
