celebrate the return of green with this vivid palette. Verdant Evening is made of Red Heart Super Saver in Pale Yellow, Caron Pound in Forest Green, and Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Pea Green, Honey and Olive. Construct the palette with these or choose shades from your favorite brands.
When you just can’t stop making 12’s, you need a layout like this one to really show them off.
Jar candles are lovely things. You can eke out a bit more atmosphere from them with a yarn cozy that lets you decorate the candle in whatever colors best fit the occasion.
This pattern is written in US terms.
Skill level for this cozy is EASY.
Hook: K/10.5 (6.5mm) (for the starting chain)
Hook: G/6 (4mm)
Yarn: DK/Sport
Size: Should fit a 4.5” to 6” candle jar.
CAUTION: Don’t use this cozy directly up against a candle, but only around a candle jar/holder. Yarn is flammable.

Fresh and clear colors. Ocean’s Edge is composed of worsted yarn Willow Wash in Aruba Blue, Snow, Clear Water, Sage and Evergreen. Of course, you don’t need to use these particular yarns to achieve this palette; just select the nearest hues from your favorite yarns.
X marks the spot. Or is there an O in the middle? Your choice of colors will tell the story.
It’s simple, but it makes a nice edging. Make it stand out a little more by adding another row/round of sc across.
These colors will warm up those chilly nights. Ammonite Fossil is composed of Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Honey, Toffee, Lion Brand Vanna’s Baby in Chocolate Cake, Herrschners Worsted 8 in Sandstone and Caron Pound in Lace. You don’t need to use these specific yarns, of course; simply select similar colors in your favorite yarns, and make something wonderful.
