2025 Yarn Discovery Tour: Pattern Fun

Our YDT 2025 patterns go hand in hand with fall sports season. Every year I pack my car with 4 seasons worth of wardrobe changes for every soccer and football game. This year I’ll be adding our Yarn Discovery patterns, the Laceleaf Cowl and Cowltopus, to that collection- no time for idle hands even at the games.
​
I am particularly happy about our two patterns this tour. Both designers present unique and modern designs that are accessible for most levels. We paired the patterns with yarn from Spun Right Round and will have them available at The Artful Yarn during the entire Yarn Discovery Tour beginning September 2nd. 

Haley, the crochet designer behind Haley Handcrafted, has a collection of unique crochet patterns, from modern yet cozy garments and accessories, to fun home decor. 

Her love for using basic crochet stitches in unique ways inspired the Laceleaf Cowl. The textured stitching used in this cowl give it warmth and comfort, while the open stitches give it drape and wearability. 

The Cowltopus by Laura Nelkin has a whimsical feel of it. The combination of striping yarns, cables, and the transition from hood to cowl where you choose your own adventure and proceed with brioche or 2x2 ribbing with stripes make this pattern a fun, quick knit. And when the end of season hits it’ll be the perfect accessory at all the games.
