This month I have included the gorgeous Sirdar Snuggly 4ply in blue. Each ball is 50g and contains approx 226m. In terms of washing instructions it can be washed on a 40° cycle and it can be popped into the tumble drier on a low heat. The Sirdar Snuggly 4ply retails at £2.99 per ball
The mini box doesn’t contain any patterns but I have put together a list of patterns that would be perfect for the yarn. This list comprises of both knitting and crochet patterns, and as this yarn lends itself so beautifully to garments this is what I have focused on. I would love to see what you come up with. I will keep adding to this list as I come across suitable patterns. This list, with direct links to patterns, can be found here in this blog post. It is also here on Pinterest.
I included some lovely deep blue buttons to contrast the yarn, as well as a wooden Handmade with love button too. This month the gift was a handmade yarn sock. I popped it around one of the balls of yarn to show you how it works. These are great as they keep your yarn clean and tidy when using from the centre. They are also great for keeping on balls of yarn that travel around with you by keeping them clean and making sure that no sneaky crochet hooks gets caught in them. You can even use them if you ‘cake’ your yarn before using it. I also included a project card in the shape of a little sheep. Hang yarn samples from your next big project in the sheep using the holes and you have an overview of the entire colour pallette for that project.
