I Love Starlette

Today we are celebrating one of our favorite yarns Mary Maxim Starlette.  Starlette is a premium acrylic yarn that is a dream to design with.  Each ball of Starlette has 180 yards of soft worsted weight yarn and comes in 44 different colors.

 

We designed our recent Ragg D’ Anne cowl and beanie with Starlette yarn featured on the September Blog Exclusive.
