Cucumber Hill is the seventh pattern in my Knit Fresh Rhode Island e-book. There will be a total of 12 patterns in all, 3 of which will only be available as part of the ebook. Patterns will be released monthly or thereabouts :).
The idea for this ebook came to me after spending a good amount of time visiting various sheep and wool fairs in Rhode Island and Massachusetts and reading more about smaller yarn producers.
This project is my way of combining my love of Rhode Island with my love of yarn! All of the patterns will use yarns that are made in Rhode Island.
Projects will include hats, mittens, scarves, and shawls. All are designed to use one or two skeins and are a great way to try out some unique yarns and support small businesses.
When you subscribe to the ebook, you will receive periodic notices when a new pattern is ready.
Cucumber Hill is a textured hat knit usng 100% llama yarn from Lladylove Llamas, a farm in Foster, RI. ( I purchased mine at the Scituate farmer’s market. The farm’s owner has a booth there. Fresh produce and fresh yarn! One stop shopping at it’s best) The yarn is hand sheared, hand dyed and hand spun from lovingly raised llamas.
The small size uses 80 yards of yarn and fit nicely on my 10 year old daughter. The larger size uses close to 95 yards.
