The special issue of
Knitscene accessories 2014 is now available.
Our very own
Jessica has a design in this issue!!! These are my top five knit accessories.
Number one of course is the
beautiful
Recursive Shawl, by Jessica Bolof.
I would knit this out of Schoppel-Wolle Gradient. Gradient is 100% virgin wool with a whopping 285 yards.
Jessica knit a sample out of Gradient and it only took one skein!!! One skein check, big needles check, quick
knit check = PRICELESS!!

Second on my list is the
luscious
Eva Marie Hat & Cowl, by Susanna IC. My choice of yarn for this project would be
Schoppel-Wolle Cashmere Queen. Cashmere
Queen is 35% cashmere, 45% merino wool, and 20% silk. The feel and drape of this yarn will work
wonderfully with the lace pattern.

Cashmere Queen #9205

Third on the list is the
Nene Shawl, by Julie LeFrancois. This shawl
is knit out of our Schoppel-Wolle, Zauberball, one of my favorite yarns!!! I
just love the color changes. This shawl
has an easy lace pattern, which lets the Zauberball shine!!

Fourth is the
Calamus Hat, by
Teresa Gregorio. Calamus is a cute lacey
slouchy hat that can be worn year round, easily knit up in Zitron Lifestyle. Lifestyle is 100% Merino Extra Fine and is
superwash. Lifestyle is a Stash-quisition
yarn and comes in 47 wonderful colors.

Lifestyle #89
Fuchsia |
Fifth is the
Dressel Shawl,
by Megi Burc, for those of us that love color work this lovely shawl has Greek
motifs. I believe Kenzie by Hikoo would be the
perfect tweed to knit up this gorgeous shawl. Kenzie is 50% New Zealand Merino, 25% Nylon,
10% Angora and 5% Silk.
