Wow, right? I just received a new stack of gorgeous
Rowan publications on my doorstep, and I wanted to share this collection right off the bat. It's called
'Rowan Loves Kidsilk Haze & Felted Tweed' by Sarah Hatton, and it's kind of a big deal because this book is like no other. All 9 designs can be knitted in either
Felted Tweed DK – or –
Kidsilk Haze (held single or double) and all of the designs can be customized. It's so much fun to see the two yarn usage options and dream of all the possibilities. Just look...
9
designs, all classics with updated twists, have multiple options for
customizing. Plus every pattern can either be knit in Felted Tweed DK
for a more casual look, or for a more glam look, knit in Kidsilk Haze
single or doubled. - See more at:

Sarah Hatton.nd it's a particularly unique collection because
The first pic (top) is of 'Gemma' knit in Kidsilk Haze ... and here is 'Gemma' in Felted Tweed DK. I love both looks! (Do you see how much fun this is?)
This is 'Karla' in Felted Tweed DK and 'Kate' in Kidsilk Haze.
Here's 'Kate' again, but in Felted Tweed DK and with a contrast edging + alternate neckline!
This is 'Andrea' in Felted Tweed DK with long sleeves.
And here's an adorable short-sleeved version of 'Andrea' in Kidsilk Haze.
Check out 'Jamie' in this gorgeous blue shade of Kidsilk Haze, called 'Trance.'
And this comfy, cozy version of 'Jamie' in Felted Tweed DK.
But 'Rowan Loves' isn't all sweaters! Check out 'Davina,' a gorgeous wrap.
And 'Paula,' a hat that would look fantastic in both yarns.
You can pick up a copy of
'Rowan Loves Kidsilk Haze & Felted Tweed' at your local Rowan stockist or look for it amongst the many yarn shops online. And keep an eye out for more 'Rowan Loves' books in the future – we've heard that this will become a series. I've been poring over new Rowan designs each night before bed and I can't wait to share more soon!
Rowan
Loves by Sarah Hatton will be available soon at your Rowan stockist, if
not there already. Rowan Felted Tweed DK and Rowan Kidsilk Haze are
very popular yarns and very easy to find. Your local Rowan stockist
will most likely carry a good selection. My local yarn store,
Uncommon Threads
in Los Altos is always my first option, support your LYS! If you don't
have that option, there are many many many excellent online stores you
can visit worldwide.
I heard from Rowan that there will be a series of books called Rowan
Loves. I don't know what yarns they will be loving next, but as soon as
I know, you'll know!
