Springtime is on its way! It is a season of change in weather – before you know it, the plants are budding and growing. This week, we wanted to share some Inspiration for new projects you can explore in your fiber adventures! Be inspired and try something different this Spring; there are so many different things that caught our attention on Ravelry, so we’ve culled our list to these knitworthy free patterns which are sure to jump to the top of your queue: 

Hop into spring with this fun pattern to knit some little rabbits; it’s available for free on Ravelry through March 1, 2016! These small rabbits are quick to knit, adorable, and an enjoyable project for a long weekend. They would make a wonderful stuffed toy for that special little one in your life. If you’re new to toy-making, then be sure to sign up for our upcoming Build a Toy Workshop with Susan B. Anderson, one of our industry’s experts in knitted toy construction.  

For our amigurumi-loving crocheters, this sweet little monkey is perfect for celebrating the Chinese New Year – after all, 2016 is the Year of the Monkey! The free pattern includes step-by-step tutorials, so even beginners can successfully stitch this adorable softie.

Even though spring is coming, there are still some days when it’s on the chilly side. That’s why “Flowform Handwarmers” would be the perfect pattern to knit up: they can be knit with sock Yarn, and we think these fingerless mitts would look fabulous in many of our exclusive hand-dyed colorways from the Purl Diver collection (click here to view all of your options).

Part of the fun of Springtime is exploring new, bright colors: Michelle Hunter’s Wandering Moon shawl is a free pattern on Ravelry that is knit with yarn we carry here in the shop: Hikoo – Rylie. With just a little flair of lace and a cabled edge, this shawl is perfect for any occasion.
