The EMBODY MAL (make-along) starts today and we are super excited to get making. You can go to Jacqui's website to get all of the details. Her plan is to meet weekly for 6 weeks. There will be prizes and fun connecting with other makers online.

The first week of the MAL is all about getting ready to knit or sew patterns from EMBODY a capsule collection to knit & sew.

We have a lot of yarn and fabric in the shop that is perfect for the DEREN knitting pattern and the WOOLFORK sewing pattern.

The DEREN knitting pattern can be knit with 2 lace weight yarns held together or a sport weight yarn held single.

The WOOLFORK sewing pattern can be made with almost any woven non stretch fabric. We love it in linen, double gauze, rayon, tencel and blends. Still need your WOOLFORK pattern printed. We offer large format pattern printing at EWE.

We have created some mood boards to highlight some of the options we have in the he shop for creating these beautiful looks. 

Jacqui's Colors

Jacqui's board features sport weight Andorra from Kelbourne Woolens, Alba organic cotton from BC Garn and lace weight Helix and Felix from La Bien Aimee (these are the yarns featured in the book).

The fabrics are Cotton Double Gauze in Grey and Sand Washed Rayon in Pink.

Canyon

Canyon features sport weight Chickadee Organic Heathers, Andorra and lace weight Helix.

The fabrics are Sand Washed Rayon in Rust, Linen Viscose in Seaweed and Cairo Linen in Copper.

Rose Garden

The blush tones of Rose Garden are all the rage right now. We love Felix and Mohair Silk from La Bien Aimee and Lichen & Lace. The subtle shade of Arabesque in Vale also hits the mark.

We have a new color of Sand Washed Rayon that just arrived called Wood Rose.

By The Seaside

By The Seaside has us thinking of summer sport weight Delaine Merino from Stone Wool and lace weight Vale are giving the right vibe. Linen is must in a mustard yellow in Sahara Linen or a misty blue in Cairo Linen.
