Gillette – 155

Designed by Maureen Clark

While wrapped up in the NFL playoffs and her beloved Patriots, Maureen was also mulling over this wrap pattern. It all came together for her, if not her team, so she decided to name it after the Patriots’ stadium. Enjoy the short row shaping, the lacy insert, the unusual edging and the luscious yarn!

Ascutney Mountain Boot Toppers – 126a

This addendum to the Ascutney Mountain Hat & Earwarmer pattern is inspired by our Vermont mud season. Harvesting Vermont maple syrup requires a great deal of walking in the woods and extra layers can help keep the early spring chill at bay. If you’d like a pop of color to dress up your “wellies” or if your chores have you wading out into knee-high drifts of snow, you’ll love these boot toppers.
