- Order by phone (804) 362-7800 or online at https://www.centeroftheyarniverse.com
October's colorways are inspired visions of spooky forests and trick-or-treating.
Gloaming is a slightly golden and dark black/brown colorway.
Treats Not Tricks is a speckled colorway which pairs nicely with Gloaming.
They are dyed on Cannoli Worsted, a soft and squishy superwash merino yarn which is perfect for almost every design calling for a worsted yarn.
Each skein is 4 oz/115 grams/210 yards. $28

Rainbow Beach + Appia Cowl
Looking for a fun (and can we say addictive?!?) new knitting project to cast on?
Then check out the Appia Cowl pattern by Hilary Smith Callis.
Appia is a lacey, light cowl-shawl hybrid - shaped like a semi-circular shawl - but worked partially in the round so it can be worn as a cowl without any dangling ends that slide off your shoulders.
There’s texture, there’s lace, and we promise it is easy-easy-easy! If you can work the knit stitch, the purl stitch, yarn-overs, and knit-two-together you can easily knit the Appia cowl.
And wow, have we found the perfect yarn for your Appia cowl - Rainbow Beach by Queensland Collection. Each skein has such amazing gradient color shifts - some are bold like the one here in the color-way “Sunset”, and others a little more subtle in their color changes. THIS is the addictive part of knitting the Appia Cowl - you just have to knit a few more rows to see the next color change!
Available in two sizes, the size small Appia Cowl can be knit with just ONE skein of Rainbow Beach, but you might want to have a second skein on hand if you knit the size large. Sandy knit the large size pictured here with one skein - but skipped a few rounds of the pattern near the end to have enough yarn left for the picot binding. If you do purchase a second skein - you will have MORE than enough left over to knit another Appia cowl in the size small - so one for yourself and one to gift to a friend or family member!
And stay tuned, Sandy already has a SECOND Appia Cowl on her needles right now and is testing/experimenting a few minor pattern modifications on how to knit a medium-sized Appia Cowl that will use just one skein of Rainbow Beach...
