Botanical Knits 2 Trunk Show




The Botanical Knits 2 trunk show is at Stash, January 4 - 21!


Join us to explore Botanical Knits 2, a book of twelve patterns from California designer Alana Dakos, inspired by the beauty of nature! The garments are at Stash this month for you to view and try on!
Now’s your chance to see these lovely garments and accessories in person, and get help picking yarn before casting-on! We have copies of the book in stock and ready for your project planning 
This trunk show is free and open to all during normal store hours.
The collection includes sweaters and accessories to create an entire lovely wardrobe.

Some of our favorites:
Sprig: We recommend Berroco Vintage or Manos Gloria.  A top down, raglan pullover with striking details. A small sprig of foliage adorns the asymmetrical neckband and sleeve cuffs. Dart-like shaping is added to the bust and hips for a flattering fit.



Ivy Trellis Hat: we recommend Wonderland Yarns Mad Hatter.  Meandering cables and leaves climb up this beret like ivy on a trellis. 



Hanging Leaves Shawl: we recommend The Fibre Co. Meadow.  A lovely, lightweight shawl to wrap around your shoulders. The plain Stockinette stitch body is adorned with an airy scalloped leaf border reminiscent of leaves clinging to branches at the end of the season.
