This week Berroco is featuring two sweaters for kids the Ana Pullover and the Arshile Hoodie. Knits for kids are great for so many reasons.

About the yarn:
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
How are you greening your knitting? Reducing doesn’t seem like much fun, and reusing generally means you’ve had to rip out a failing project, a painful part of any knitter’s process. Enter Remix, a 100% recycled Berroco yarn made using a low-impact manufacturing process patented in France.
What makes Remix yarn eco-friendly? See the About Remix page to learn more.

Shawl Kits, now in-stock …
How about a lovely mosaic knit shawl to keep the chill off of the upcoming cool September nights?
Meet Me at Midnight is a fun knit, triangular shawl worked in a DK weight yarn (# 3) to create a squishy, warm finished garment. Wear it as a kerchief around your neck like a scarf to keep out the winter chill, or wrap it around your shoulders.
If you need help picking colours, we have put together five beautiful kits for you to choose from!
Kits include: 3 skeins of Berroco Vintage DK, in carefully-selected colourways
Kit Colour Options:
Cost: $35.94 / kit
Option 1: 2106 (Smoke), 2189 (Charcoal), 21191 (Blue Moon)
Option 2: 2100 (Snow Day), 2116 (Dove), 2183 (Lilac)
Option 3: 2106 (Smoke), 2107 (Cracked Pepper), 2197 (Neptune)
Option 4: 2106 (Smoke), 2107 (Cracked Pepper), 2151 (Cardinal)

Note: The pattern is available to purchase as an in-store pattern sale from Ravelry; let us know at the time of purchase if you need a copy of the pattern.
A few benefits of Mosaic Knitting:
- Results in beautiful colourwork without the stress
- Work with only ONE colour at a time – no floats, no carrying yarn, no bobbins, no juggling two colours in the same row!
- Great for all skill levels, beginner through advanced
- A wonderful technique to showcase yarns with long gradient colour changes
- Finished fabric maintains most of the stretch that regular stockinette has, unlike stranded knitting
- Much easier to keep an even tension than Fairisle knitting
Here is the next ‘in-stock’ shawl kit…
Do you remember our ever popular “One of a Kind” Throw Kits that we had on display from years gone by? That is what this next shawl reminds me of. Knit with 4 different colours and 3 different textures to create fabric that is both breath-taking & eye-catching!! This shawl will be pure joy to wear!
Among the varying colours, the glorious textures and the interesting pattern stitches, this is one knit guaranteed to keep your interest!
The “Zigging the Zag” shawl is designed by Louise Robert of Biscotte Yarns. It is a beautiful asymmetrical triangular shawl knit from point to point (increasing along one side to the middle, and decreasing along that same side back to the other point) using a chevron pattern. The pattern plays with both colour and texture to create a truly unique, one-of-a-kind shawl. The pattern is written line-by-line for those that prefer written instructions.
Have a look at some of our fellow Knitters finished shawls:
  
We have put together 21 ONE-OF-A-KIND kits for this shawl. Each kit is priced according to the yarns it contains, so all are priced individually. Each kit comes with instructions on how to arrange your colours (eg. which yarns are intended to be Colours A, B, C, and D), enough yarn to knit the shawl, and instructions on how to receive a free digital copy of this pattern. Should you wish us to print this 21-page pattern for you, a small printing fee of $2.00 will be added to the cost of your kit. You will require stitch markers and a 3.75mm x 32” (or 40”) circular needle for this project.
What Kit colours will you choose?
For pricing information and for the yarn contents of each kit (including high-resolution photos of the yarns contained in each kit), please click on THIS LINK to download/open a new document.
Because each kit is a ‘ONE-OF-A-KIND’, when choosing your kit colours, you might want to have a second or third pick selected just in case your first pick has already been sold. Please check our webpage listing to see which kits are still available for sale.
And, lastly, our third Shawl offering is a familiar favourite, but with TWO brand new colourways added to our kit choices.
Nightshift Shawl kits are a great way to play with the fun colours of Cascade's 220 Superwash Wave; choose from 7 unique colour-kit options.
Knit side-to-side, the Nightshift shawl features simple techniques: slipped stitches, mosaic knitting, and an I-cord edging that make this an engaging project to knit.
Each shawl kit contains a total of 6 skeins of 220 Superwash Wave, one skein in each of 6 different colours, carefully selected and put together based on popular projects seen in shops and favourite colour combinations!
OPTION A contains 1 hank each of colours 102, 105, 108, 109, 110, 111.
OPTION B contains 1 hank each of colours 104, 105, 106, 108, 109, 111.
