One of our family’s favorite places to travel when things get a bit cold here in Minnesota is a little village named Cocoa in Florida. When the wonderful little yarn shop in the village asked if I might consider dyeing yarn for them - it was with a resounding YES!

The Beach Life Project Bag was designed with request from the Cocoa Village Yarn Shop, and features palm trees, Ipomea and a blue sky that carries over the water in waves of hand dyed repeats.

Cast on this project bag and take the Beach Life with you where ever you go!
