Diamonds & Rib Pullover
 
Diamonds and Rib Pullover
The Diamonds & Rib Pullover, designed by Susan Robicheau, features twisting ribs which anchor a dynamic Diamond pattern taking this pullover out of the ordinary.  Just enough pattern to keep the knitting interesting and the shaping easy. 

The sample is knit in Balance,
a blend of 50% organic merino wool and 50% organic cotton with an natural look and a soft hand. The colors are named after gemstones, so pick your favorite! 
Ogee Cowl and Scarf
Ogee
Undulating lace creates texture and movement in the Ogee Cowl and Scarf while the kettle-dye variations in the yarn create subtle color interest. The scarf will add color to any outfit while the larger cowl shawl will lend some drama.

We used Malabrigo Lace.
This yarn is s
pun from the finest merino wool, coming from sheep bred for generations by ranchers in the northern part of Uruguay, where the ideal climate for this breed is found.

We'll have a picture of the Italian Tee soon--Jill is knitting as fast as she can!

Since
not everyone can join us on our trip to Tuscany in 2008, we are offering the Y2Knit Experience Tuscany Armchair Traveler, an opportunity to participate to some extent in this unique Experience.

How it works:
1)  Sign up for the Experience Tuscany Armchair Traveler.

2)  In January/February 2007, you'll receive your package (tote, yarn for the Y2Knit Italian Tee, designed by Jill, and more).  This is a perfect holiday gift!
 

3)  You'll then receive instructions for joining the online community.

4)  In February/March 2008, we'll start the online workshop for the Y2Knit Italian Tee, which will continue for several months. (We'll be more specific on dates after the holidays)/

5) More Italy inspired patterns and Italian tidbits will be delivered via email between February and October.

Sterling Silk
 
Sterling Black Thumb
We've sold many hanks of this fabulous yarn and still have some left.  Sterling Silk & Silver, 63% superwash Merino/ 20% silk/ 15% nylon/ 2% silver -- yes, that kind of silver. It provides a bit of bling, just the right amount.

3.5oz / 100g / 420 yards. This is perfect for socks on a size 0-1.5 or use a larger needle for lace.

Now available from Y2Knit: a lovely Italian Lace Shawl, Sterling Lace, to show off this unique yarn!
