Top Three Project Picks:

1. Nip by Laura Aylor

This project takes just two cakes for the largest size (seen here) or one for the smaller. The pattern is available from the designer on Ravelry.

2. Half and Half Cowl by Sara Lucas

This cowl is a great way to play with color and match up two complimentary cakes of this yarn. The pattern is available on Ravelry from the designer.

3. Stitch Block Cowl by Purl Soho

This is hands down one of my favorite FOs ever. I used one Freia Merino / Silk Cake and two complementary colors of hand dyed worsted. (I used Sweet Georgia Superwash). Hazel Knits Cadence, Neighborhood Fiber Co Studio Worsted or Manos Alegria Grande would all be great.
