Calling all crocheters! For your stitching inspiration, the Mrs. Moon Plump DK and Plump Superchunky trunk show has landed in space. Both are sumptuously soft and ethically sourced single-ply yarns from the UK. During the spinning process, the fibers are slightly felted, which helps prevent the yarn splitting when working with it.

These patterns are perfect for the chilly winter ahead. Even better: they are free with yarn purchase! Ordering online? Add a note stating which pattern you want, and the yarnistas will email the PDF to you.
