Introducing Judy Marple's, of Purl Bumps, Summerside, a semi circular shawl design worked from the top down with an exquisite deep lace border. Its designed to be knit in 100 grams of a fingering weight sock yarn, making it a great stash buster project or a great chance to try a new sock yarn! Malabrigo Sock would be ideal but visit my Fingering Weight yarn section for more ideas.

Judy Marples joined Sandrasingh.com in
February of this year, but she's been knitting since she was a child and
designing knitwear since 2009. We're delighted to be working with Judy,
her designs are always beautiful and her patterns always knittable. Judy
loves luxury fibers and her patterns reflect the strengths and beauty of each she uses. But she's especially fond of Malabrigo. She
discovered Merino Worsted in 2007 and its been a match
made in heaven for all of us!
Recently Malabrigo took a moment to
interview Judy and you can read it on their
blog.
Judy also designed two very special accessories in Malabrigo that we'd like to
share with you, the Free patterns for the Knit Night Hat and the Woodsie Gloves,
both available on Sandrasingh.com
The
Knit Night hat is a slouchy adult sized hat created in 1 skein of
Malabrigo
Rios and features a textured stitch on the brim that is ideal for
showcasing variegated yarns as well as solids. You will find the pattern easy
enough to work while chatting with friends at Knit Night or anywhere else.

The fingerless gloves
Woodsie use less than one skein of Malabrigo
Merino Worsted and feature a rustic little four-stitch pattern, an
afterthought thumb and a double cuff that can be rolled down over the fingers
for extra warmth. These would make awesome gloves for Men too.
