YarnYAY! August Boxes: What’s inside

• 2 hanks of Kelbourne Woolens Mojave is a lovely, drapey blend of cotton and linen, making it pretty much the perfect yarn to work with during the summertime. This month’s color selections are Cactus, Turquoise, and Seafoam.

  Kelbourne Woolens is a Philadelphia-based yarn and distribution company. It was founded in 2008 and is owned by Courtney Kelley and Kate Gagnon Osborn. Vickie met the duo for the first time when they were guests on PBS’ Knitting Daily during her tenure as host/producer. See the rest of their yarns at: kelbournewoolens.com

• Al Fresca Placemat & Coaster Set Pattern (print & digital) by Vickie Howell
  We were dreaming of picnics and patio dining when putting together this month’s box, so pop-y placemats seemed the natural project choice. The knit version is made with a lacy herringbone stitch for airy, textured pieces.

  The crochet version of this month’s project uses shell stitches for a still lacy, but sturdier option. For more of Vickie’s patterns, go to the YarnYAY! shop or here.
