31 Days of Hats

It's that time of year again, when the days grow shorter, the mountain-tops become covered with snow, and temperatures are dropping. In other words, its time to put on a nice, head-warming knitted or crocheted hat!

Patchwork-style Blanket

Patchwork-style designs by our Creative Director, Lena Skvagerson. The NEW completely custom Madelinetosh Blanket base is a 5-ply, worsted weight, 100% Superwash Merino wool base. This base is 25% More Squish™ (not a real trademark). Each colorway contains hand-dyed colors not available in Tosh's core 150. You will need a size J US10 (6.0mm) hook to complete your blanket, this is not included. But we know where you can get some!

Beautiful and a Great Value

This is a beautiful yarn. Suri, Silk and Cashmere what is not to love. I'm holding it with fingering and it is adding a lovely soft halo. I have some cashmere silk that goes for $50 for 25 grams and this yarn is just as lovely. 100% will be buying this again.

Fabulous Yarn

Great colors, great stitch definition, so soft never ever knots. Plus machine washable & dryable - who could ask for more? My favorite worsted ever! Love it! And Jimmy Beans ships so promptly. Jimmy's needs to replenish their stock of this and the yarn overall needs to be better publicized.
