Introducing...
Berroco’s New Yarns for Fall!
FIKA – Hand dyed speckles of colour dance through each skein of this sophisticated DK weight (#3) yarn. Made of 100% superwash fine merino, it creates a warm fabric that is super soft, perfect for sweaters and accessories. Made in Peru; 5 spot print colours.
LANAS LIGHT – Made from the same special blend of South American wools as Berroco Lanas, Lanas Light has the soft touch and beautiful luster we know and love constructed in a springy 2-ply DK (#3) weight that works at a variety of gauges. Perfect for your new heirlooms: colourwork, lace, and more. Made in Peru; 28 shades.
RENEW (available to order now!) – A yarn so effortlessly elegant, so buttery soft, that we almost forgot it is eco-friendly too. We can’t get enough of this beautiful, sophisticated worsted weight (#4) yarn composed of recycled wool, cashmere, and nylon along with a sustainably produced form of viscose. DK/Worsted weight (#3 - #4) depending on needle size. Made in Italy; 14 colours; $16.98/ball.
VENTO – A sophisticated modern yarn with beautiful drape perfect for making light airy garments and warm soft accessories. The silky soft Baby Alpaca gives this yarn a gorgeous halo with a subtle two-tone effect that pops in jewel tones and creates depth in elevated neutrals. Made in Peru; 11 shades.
WIZARD – Bold happy colours flow through this chunky weight (#5) yarn that is so light it feels weightless. The magic comes from the chainette construction of this blend of 85% Superwash Extrafine Merino Wool, 15% Nylon. Made in Italy; 8 colours.

‘A new pattern to make something cute from the Berroco Yarn Tasting Kit, or any interesting assortment of yarns. We have been making these patterns for several seasons now and every time we do, it is lots of fun and helps stretch your creative imagination!’ – Heidi Sunday

‘Tip about getting the most out of your kit: The row counts are based on the way I knit. I didn’t want to waste any of the yarn, so I worked until I was almost out of each one. Always making sure I started the new colour on a right side row. Your gauge will vary in each section. Just enjoy!’ – Becca Ruggiero

Have fun making a pair of mitts from your Berroco Yarn Tasting Kit, or any assortment of worsted and chunky, wooly yarns.

This is a fun way to use the yarns in the Spring 2021 Berroco Yarn Tasting Kit (just sub in the Fall ’22 Kit). The chunkiest one is crocheted into a little basket shape, and then swatches of each of the 5 others become the “laundry”. Stitch patterns are (mostly) taken from Berroco’s own pattern designs. Cute!

This pattern was designed to use with the Spring 2021 Berroco tasting kit, but can easily be used for the Fall ’22 kit. You could also use any DK weight yarn in place of the samples in the tasting kit.
Spoiler alert!!
Hope your week goes well for you & yours,
