Are you ready for Yarnosphere? Me neither! But here’s one of our charity knit-out patterns to get you started. It’s a soap cosy that’s the perfect size for a round hotel soap, and it’s a real quick knit in any un-mercerized cotton.

Skills required include knitting garter stitch on the bias with a kfb and a k2tog. You’ll also graft in Kitchener stitch, and do a bit of end-weaving and sewing up. Don’t sweat it; we’ll be running how-to videos between demonstrations on our main stage.

Some generous sponsors are contributing “opportunity drawing” door prizes to Yarnosphere; if you complete one of these and turn it in at our donation booth, you’ll get an extra free chance to win :)
