    • Two skeins of the softest, loveliest yarn to make 2 Hats & 2 Cowls!! How cool is that?

      If you're yet to try slip stitch or mosaic knitting, this might just be the perfect place to start too!

      We've created some gorgeous kits for these patterns by Iris Schreier to show off the amazing new Ombré colourways, including our exclusive Tribe Ombré colourway which was created during this Instagram Live Session!

      OR Create your own version with one skein of Merino Cloud and one Ombré Merino Cloud, and ask us for a PDF copy of the pattern in the notes with your order!

      These hand-painted yarns are an ingenious mash-up of variegation and self-striping, with much longer sections of individual colours than regular variegated yarns, but more blended transitions than self-striping yarns.

      Each kit contains:
      • 1 skein Merino Cloud yarn (an unbelievably soft and luxurious blend of Fine Merino and Italian Cashmere: Merino Cloud is unlike any other yarn!)
      • 1 skein Ombré Merino Cloud yarn
      • PDF Pattern (emailed to you)

      You will also need:
      • 4.5mm (US 7) circular knitting needles and DPNs (or magic loop), or size to obtain gauge
      • Stitch Markers
      • Tapestry needle for darning your ends

      Merino Cloud yarn contains an exceptionally high quality cashmere which makes it super soft  and as light as a cloud, but with tons of loft and body, and exquisite drape and stitch definition.
