Celebrate the charm of the festive season with a limited-edition kit thoughtfully curated by three Bay Area makers: Dawn Kathryn Studios, Peninsula Yarn, and Life Is Cozy.
This special winter collaboration continues the creative journey we began with our Summer Kit — now reimagined for the colder months, full of color, texture, and a touch of holiday magic.
At the heart of the kit is the Cyclamen Cowl pattern, a new design by Ksenia Naidyon of Life Is Cozy. This elegant cowl captures the delicate magic of winter gardens, where cyclamen flowers unfurl, bright sparks of color in the quiet of the season. The flowers are created with dip stitches with just one color used in every row.
The kit’s exclusive yarn is a collection of five mini-skeins of enchanting Glitter Fingering. Dyed by Lynn Tsui of Peninsula Yarn, this blend of soft merino with golden shimmer evokes the beauty of frosty mornings and festive lights — perfect for bringing the Cyclamen Cowl’s intricate details to life.
To carry your project in style, the kit includes an organic cotton project bag from Dawn Kathryn Studios, hand-printed in her Berkeley studio. Dawn's original artwork features evergreens and winter flora around the moon phases, celebrating the peaceful beauty of winter crafting.
Each kit also includes a strawberry quartz stitch marker, handmade with love by Ksenia. Strawberry quartz is a symbol of inner joy, love, and self-acceptance, offering an extra touch of care during the colder months.
