Woven Warmth is a pattern using the woven knitting technique. The pattern includes a shawl as well as a cowl. It requires small amounts of yarn that are carried up the work as well as yarn that is stranded across. You will need to use bobbins or yarn butterflies for this project. The pattern is laid out in sections as follows: Navigating This Pattern What is a Tabby Weave Selecting Your Colors Arranging Your Colors - Shawl Arranging Your Colors - Cowl Pattern Notes Woven Warmth Shawl General Instructions Woven Warmth Chart Photo Collage of Shawl Woven Warmth Cowl Photo Collage of Cowl There are photos to accompany the written instructions to help explain the technique. Color advice is given and to help you select colors, color examples and color-in pages are included. Small amounts of 20 colors were used to make the shawl shown. 4 colors were used to make the cowl. For the cowl, I used Isager Spinni held together with Isager Silk Mohair, approximately 35g of each color, 3.5mm (US4) needles. It measures 60cm (24”) circumference, 40cm (16”) front center depth, 20cm (8”) back neck depth. It is hoped that you, the knitter, will develop your own color/yarn arrangement, your own Woven Warmth.

Pacific Pouf by Moroso The new Pacific collection, designed by Patricia Urquiola for Moroso, provides an intimate seating experience that is like being wrapped in a protective and relaxing cocoon. With its rounded, oversized shapes, it evokes the relaxed atmosphere of the American West Coast, from which it takes its name. Pacific is the continuation of a design process begun in 2010 with the iconic Redondo collection by Patricia Urquiola. "It's the evolution of a collection that over recent years has been very successful not least for its use of innovative, luxurious finishes", explained Patrizia Moroso, the company's Art Director. "With Pacific, we focus more on the shape, restoring generous, curved lines." In the Pacific sofa, hard edges are banned while the soft shapes are enhanced with the use of "couture" details. The soft, woolly upholstery was chosen to give an extraordinarily tactile experience, with a choice of sophisticated boucle, plush wool or luxurious velvet. For the Milano Design Week 2022 the collection is enriched with the pouf.
