Tosh Chunky Limited Edition
2 Comments Published by Aja October 24th, 2012 in Madeline Tosh, New new new!, Project Ideas.Newly posted in the online shop from Madelinetosh is Tosh Chunky Limited Edition. This hand dyed yarn has the same lustre as the Tosh Chunky currently in production, but with a slightly thicker gauge, and a tighter and bouncier twist (14-16 st per 4 inches/10 cm).
Personally, I’m a grey and blue lover (everything I knit matches the Seattle weather!), so the Baltic
are calling my name, though I did see a listing for the ever popular Tart!
I’ve been on a hat kick lately, knitting mini Thorpe hats for my toddler and all his little friends, but with the gauge given, this yarn would be perfect for an adult sized Thorpe. What a lovely holiday gift that would make!
If you’re not in hat knitting mode, the Confection Baby Shrug is also in my queue, and matches the gauge! . For the crocheters, it would make super squishy and warm Lizzie slippers! There’s also the ever popular Cherry Garcia Cowl, which would look beautiful in one of the solid colorways.
Whatever pattern you chose, I don’t think it’s possible to go wrong with this yarn. Anything that has this much squish and bounce is super enjoyable to knit with.
Haven’t been to your site in a while (what was I thinking? or not…) But ventured on to it last night. Love the look of the blog. Very easy to read and lots of good stuff. I will definately share with my friends.
Thanks Amy! I know what you mean, Little Knits is a tempting place, thanks again for stopping by!
