New Berroco Yarns: Splash & Lumi

  SPLASH

First up is Splash  a fun, fluid yarn with a delightful matte, slightly nubby texture. Feels lovely and cool next to skin so excellent for any warm weather garments. Just the little pops of color adds fun factor! Splash is a chainette construction. They highly recommend you to wash your swatch before casting on. Chainette type yarns are amazing and can morph size so good to see how it responds to a trip to the Yarn Day Spa (blocking). You'll be surprised at the results....and glad you made the extra effort. 

We have all the new Berroco Spring Summer 2023 Booklets in the shop. Grab a physical copy next time you're in the shop or order on our website.

Purchase digital copies (single patterns or the whole shebang of all the patterns!) via Ravlery.(We can also order it up for you from Ravlery-just ask. We now can print out a copy easily! Whoohoo! Thank you new Air Printer!). Also available in Berroco's PDF Store.

LUMI

Lumi looks familiar (similar to past favorites Mykonos, Seduce, Captiva) but comes all wound up in a neat ball (whew....winding the others were no fun!). It's a firmer construction with slight nub and flecks of tonal color shading. Beaucoup drape but not clingy drape, thanks to the firm structure. Easier to work up and would make awesome crochet items! 

Lumi a no brainer for any fun jewelry projects. Note sev[en]circle is a shop favorite and written for 4 gauges. Makes it a perfect stash-busting, go-to pattern perfect for Lumi. No beads which makes it even easier! The others are great but have beads. You'll probably need to upsize pattern gauge for Lumi and use bigger beads (#6 for DK yarn). The Vitro crochet no beads and nice way to highlight favorite stone, pebble or beach glass trinket.
