Featured yarn - Encore

We're going to try and highlight a different yarn every two weeks, to coincide with the newsletter.
We'll be starting with the ever popular Encore.

Encore, made by Plymouth, is 75% acrylic and 25% wool. It's very popular for baby
blankets (washable), but it can be used for anything, Thea is currently working on her argyle shirt with (see the last blog psot). On the voila page of our website, you can see two projects made out of it - a blanket and some socks!

If you're wondering what to make, here's a free pattern from knitting pattern central for a no sew sweater using Encore.
