New: Color Made Easy

One of the best features of this new yarn is how much bang you’ll get for your buck! Each skein of Color Made Easy weighs 7oz (200g), almost double the average skein. This will measure out to 247yd (226m), so you’ll easily finish smaller projects with just one. However, part of the fun is exploring the broad color palette available, so you might find yourself mixing several hues to create something totally unique. This 100% acrylic is also very easy to care for, so you can machine wash and dry any project, which is especially handy for accessories.

Color Made Easy: Patterns

Here we’ve collected just 12 of the available patterns for Color Made Easy, some knit and some crochet. As you’ll see, this bulky yarn lends itself perfectly not only to garments, but also to fun winter accessories. Because of the bulkiness, you’ll be able to craft quickly, so it might be a great option for gift projects, too!

Now, if you’re looking to get into some interesting color work, the Roscoe Scarf (Knit) would be a perfect introduction.
