It's the season of Scorpio, and this month's installment in our Toshstrology 2016 series pays beautiful homage to this bold water sign with a lovely mermaid green! It's refreshing and cool, the perfect balm for that passionate Scorpio spirit! And, we have it in all of your favorite Tosh bases! | It doesn't take much to be inspired by this pretty, deep teal, and we have quite a cache of designs to go with it! Rachel designed the gorgeously squishy Scorpio Cowl, which takes simple Fisherman's Rib to a new level of loveliness, and uses just 2 skeins of Tosh Merino Light - and, the pattern is half off (just $2!) with purchase of the yarn, so pick up a Scorpio Cowl Kit! |
Chris whipped out his lace knitting chops for the Antares Slouch, which features leafy eyelet details and a comfortably slouchy shape. Just one skein of Tosh Merino DK is all it takes for a warm and beautiful hat - grab an Antares Slouch Kit, as the pattern is exclusive to JBW! And Kristen busted out a beanie in a broken rib pattern: one skein of Tosh Vintage makes the simple but perfect Scorpio Hat, part of Kristen's Toshstrology Collection! | |
| Our designers aren't the only ones who have been busy: Chicken Boots whipped up two new bag designs in honor of Scorpio! The Scorpio Small Wristlet is just large enough to tote a small project, and the Scorpio Stitch Marker Pouch will conceal your notions (or spare change!) in style! |
Now, for your Scorpio yarnoscope! A natural born leader, the Scorpio is determined, resourceful, and always up for a challenge! With the holiday season coming up, Scorpio, you are the perfect person to organize a charity crafting event or fundraiser for your community. How about starting a preemie hat drive for your local NICU, or a collection event for those in need of warm winter clothes? With your dedication and passion, it's sure to be a success! |

Fall weather may be fantastic (Sweaters! Scarves! Socks!), but what happens at the end of fall is even better: the harvest of nature's bounty!
We've put together a couple of crafty cornucopias to celebrate the beauty of hand-dyed Madelinetosh yarn, and they'll look gorgeous as a decoration or a special gift (until you use them up, that is!)!
|
Choose the Small Cornucopia with 3 skeins of Tosh Vintage in fall harvest colors, plus a sample packet of Soak Wash and an adorable measuring tape, or the Large Cornucopia with 5 skeins of Tosh Vintage and a bar of Black Rock Muds handmade soap! Both come beautifully packaged in a straw basket cornucopia, ready for gifting or displaying! | |

Our October Little Beanie Bag introduced you to a company with a mission: Manos del Uruguay!
This non-profit helps women in rural areas work to support their families, and makes gorgeous yarns to boot. We included samples of four of Manos del Uruguay's most popular yarns: squishy Alegria, delicate Fino, lofty Maxima, and sumptuous Silk Blend, plus a clever felt tag, also from Manos, that you can use to personalize a gift. And, as always, a sample packet of Soak Wash and a custom accessory pouch!
To put those yarns to good use, Ann of Freeform Fibers dreamed up knit and crochet patterns for lovely handmade necklaces!
