Miss Purl’s 2024 Winter Catalog is all about embracing the magic of winter crafting. Let’s dive in! Grab a libation and let’s challenge ourselves to create the coziest winter project possible! 

Featured Pattern: Warm Bits by Kris Carlson 

The Warm Bits Scarf and Mitts by Kris Carlson is a delightful project to add a touch of pizzazz to your winter wardrobe. The pattern takes just one 50 g skein of Julie Asselin Sport or Hudson and West Weld (sport-weight) to make the scarf and one 50g skein to make the mitts. When you buy both skeins, we will gift you the pattern. The scarf also features a keyhole to pull the ends through, ensuring no fuss or muss when wearing it around your neck.

The Warm Bits Scarf and Mitts by Kris Carlson in good choice for a beginner shawl or easy knit scarf project.

Winter is a time when many of us knitters face a common dilemma: finding the right yarn to keep our projects warm and cozy. You see, it's not just about the yarn itself, but about the feeling it evokes. We want our winter projects to be snug, comforting, and inviting – something that makes us feel like curling up by the fireplace with a warm cup of hot chocolate.

But let's be honest, sometimes it can be a real challenge to find yarns that live up to our winter crafting dreams. We've all been there – searching for the perfect yarn, only to end up with something that's either too thin, too scratchy, or just plain boring. And when you're working on a project that's meant to be a labor of love, the last thing you want is to be disappointed by the yarn.

Miss Purl's 2024 Winter Catalog includes yarns that are not only beautiful but also affordable, warm, soft, and perfect for winter crafting. Each yarn has been carefully selected to provide the ultimate cozy experience, whether you're making a hat, a scarf, or a blanket.

Curated Patterns for Every Project 

Our Winter Catalog features a variety of patterns that cater to different skill levels and project types. Whether you're looking to create a cozy hat, a stylish scarf, or a thoughtful gift, you'll find the perfect pattern to match your yarn choice. Each pattern is carefully selected to ensure it complements the yarn's texture and weight, making your knitting experience enjoyable and rewarding.

Get Inspired and Start Creating 

With about two weeks left before teacher, coworker, doctor, friend stocking stuffer, and secret gift exchange gifts are due, now is the time to make something special. We've done the legwork of picking accessible patterns that can be made in three weeks or less, just in time for Christmas gifts or quick cold weather projects. Am I the only one trying to cast on a hat to keep my head warm in this early winter freeze?! EEK!
