BEFORE:

A skein is wound contemplatively into a plump, round ball like a little planet newly discovered. Malabrigo Rios, one of the world’s most beloved yarns, is ready to become …?

AFTER:

Ah, it wants to be all things to all people.

And look here – it succeeds by becoming My Dreamy Friend Versatile.

How did that happen?

Needles crossed it all works out OK.

Let’s be sure to create a garment that when worn lets your shades flow unhindered and plays with the light.

How could anything go wrong when you’re creating with Malabrigo Rios and Lykke needles? It’s all a dream. Doesn’t matter how it turns out, it just feels good to go one stitch at a time in the moment.

Let’s make a braided cord so we can tie you up and bind you give you even more freedom of shape.

Thanks Malabrigo Rios for inspiring a garment that really is all things to all people. Hello INNER WILD My Dreamy Friend Versatile.

Do you like having garments you can play with? Versatiles are so clever especially when you have a capsule wardrobe. A versatile can change your entire look with a quick twist or gather of fabric. A versatile can change with your mood, the weather. Be changeable, surprising, delightful. The INNER WILD My Dreamy Friend Versatile can one day look kind of rad as a skirt and the next pile itself up around your neck to protect you from gale force wind. It can sit simple and strong on you as a capelet or get artistic as as collar.

Please knit yourself the INNER WILD My Dreamy Friend Versatile – this pattern releases before the end of this month here, on Etsy and Ravelry. I’ve created the pattern page on Ravelry so you can be ready for anything this winter brings by queuing it now.
