Glass and Merino Love Bag.jpg The Merino‐and‐Glass Love Bag is made from the soft Merino wool of the Tilli Tomas Flur­ries. The glass beads dress it up and give the purse added flare. You can not go wrong! I picked up the book at my knit­ting store and am adding it to my knit­ting library that I keep in the kitchen.

The Win­ter issue of the Knitter’s Mag­a­zine offers  a delight­ful scarf pat­tern called Siken­Splen­dor.  The scarf calls for 4 skeins of Tilli Tomas Fil de la Mer in the color Rus­set and 2 skeins of Beaded Plie in the color of Burnt Orange.  The undu­lat­ing wave pat­tern and garter stripes in the Beaded Plie cre­ate a gar­ment that breaths and has plenty of style.  The pat­tern was designed by Amy Mar­shall.
