One of the most exciting initiatives we have been a part of is Stitch Red. Not only is raising awareness about the #1 killer of women an important message, but the designs we are seeing are so beautiful! I love wearing red. Now I have a ton of knitting (and crocheting) choices, not only in the extraordinary Knit Red book by Sixth and Spring, but in this beautiful collection of wearable knits in our luscious Stitch Red colorways. Enjoy!

Alpaca Sox

|
60% Alpaca • 20% Merino • 20% Nylon Alpaca Sox is a 2-ply yarn twisted just enough to be durable, but relaxed enough that the soft alpaca fibers can expand a little and show their halo. The yarn feels lofty and light and is as lovely in shawls, scarves and baby sweaters as it is in socks.

Magnolia

|
70% Merino • 30% Silk An exquisite blend of merino and silk, Magnolia has a subtle sheen and great stitch definition. The semi-solid colors give Magnolia the illusion of light reflecting off the surface of the fabric. Magnolia's elegance is perfect for dressy, special occasions or for everyday luxury.
