Little Tassels, Maximum Delight!

Knit a beautifully artistic swath of fabric edged with yarn tassels, like bitty bursts of joy! Our free Little Tassels Wrap pattern puts on display our new Sketchbook Cotton, an expressive cotton yarn with a subtle thick-and-thin texture and a lovely, lived-in feel… Thoughtfully crafted and full of creative possibility! Soft and comforting yet cool and light, it's the summer yarn you’ll reach for all year round.

An Easy + Elegant Knit

Our free Easy Scalloped Washcloth + Hand Towel pattern invites you to knit a simply beautiful set of towels, bordered by gentle undulations that echo the rippled edge of a seashell. Our new Sketchbook Cotton yarn brings a rustic beauty to every row, with a subtle thick-and-thin texture and the soothing softness of sun-warmed sand... Very beautiful!

Knit Nature's Spectrum

Our earthy and sumptuous Sand Drift Blanket travels through all six of our Sweetgrass yarn's un-dyed, unadulterated colors, each one a softly heathered mix of organic cotton and naturally-colored superfine alpaca. In a squishy slip stitch pattern (that involves no purling!), this free pattern is a lovely time spent with beautiful yarn!

Hop To It!

Our free Sweet Bunny pattern is a lovable knit that will also become a treasured family heirloom. The inspiration for this project came from a nest of bunnies in one of our designer’s backyards, a fluffy pile of creamy whites, soft tans, and bark browns just like the undyed neutrals of our beautiful Sweetgrass yarn. We just had to make a bunny in every color!

Feel-It-To-Believe-It Cashmere

Nigh Fine’s exceptional highest-grade cashmere comes from Mongolian cashmere goats and their downy undercoat, which keeps them warm and insulated without weighing them down. It will do the same for baby! Pick from a palette of 18 beautiful heathered colors, from delicate, baby-friendly classics like Turquoise Patina to earthy neutrals like Soft Rosewood!

Rustic Yet Elegant Linen Quill

Keep it light and natural with our fingering-weight Linen Quill yarn, a mix of fine highland wool, alpaca, and linen. With a rustic texture, soft hand, and elegant drape, pick from a vast palette of 70 colors, inspired by all of nature's beauty: earth, air, fire, and water. Find out why Linen Quill is our most popular yarn!

Look Out Weekend, Here You Come!

Cast on for Aubrey Baumgartner's free Weekend Tote pattern in Sunshower Cotton's cloud-kissed Upper Atmosphere, a dreamy forecast for your needles. Three skeins make the smaller bag, or grab five for the larger size. As full of promise as the weekend itself, the Weekend Tote is made to carry whatever makes your days feel wide open!

Freehand Beauty

Our free Sketch Shawl knitting pattern celebrates the artful serendipity of our hand-dyed Estuary yarn. This beautiful merino wool, silk, and linen yarn is rich with layers of shifting color, and in Blue Tourmaline, it becomes a tidepool of blues... Fluid, luminous, and alive with depth and movement.

Explore The Wide World Of Fingering-Weight Yarn

Have you ever wondered where fingering-weight yarn's funny name came from? Or pondered the difference between fingering-weight yarn and sock yarn? This on-the-fine-side yarn is an elegant choice when you want to knit a lovely, lightweight fabric. Check out our new guide to fingering-weight yarn to get all your questions answered and more!

Our Prism Blanket Pattern, Now In Morning

We created 3 beautiful Prism Blanket In Morning Bundles, each one combining fresh Heirloom White with four of Morning’s cheery, up-with-the-sun colors… White light and the rainbow it reveals! Morning is an absolute delight to knit, a round DK-weight yarn made with a unique blend of 75% cotton and 25% yak that offers the perfect balance of coolness and coziness!

A Down-To-Earth Beauty... Knit Julie Hoover's Arie

Beautiful yarn and thoughtful details are all it takes to transform a simple design into a work of natural beauty! Cast on with either Cattail Silk or Linen Quill, two of our favorite yarns for natural charm. Cattail Silk leads to a light and airy Arie with a gorgeous drape, while Linen Quill creates a lightweight Arie that's a bit cozier and squishier.

Knit Our Summery Terrace Wrap

Our free Terrace Wrap pattern celebrates patio life with its garden trellis-slash-bistro chair texture and its airy wear-anywhere ease. A cinch to make with a repeat that charms you into a rhythm, the Terrace Wrap is a peaceful knit for time on the patio, porch, or whatever patch of outdoors you can claim. It only takes 2 skeins of Cattail Silk to knit this beauty!

Two Favorite Summer Yarns Come Together

Our Sowing Seeds Wrap Bundle combines velvety, lustrous Santolina with narrow stripes of smooth, matte Cotton Pure to highlight the contrast between these two lightweight summer yarns. We put together nine Sowing Seeds Wrap Bundles to make it easy for you to plan this ultimate summer knitting project!

Soft + Supple Cotton Pure

Our 100% organically grown, unmercerized Cotton Pure is a practical (and lovely!) sport-weight yarn for housewares, baby clothes, blankets, wraps and lightweight sweaters. Pick from a big palette of colors that sings of summer, from dappled birch groves and blooming wildflower fields to sun-warmed stone patios and linens fluttering on the line!

Cotton Chirp DK... Big + Little!

Our new 100-gram balls of Cotton Chirp DK are the grown-up counterparts to our Cotton Chirp DK Minis! They come in the same brilliant palette of 32 colors, and they’re the exact same amazing 100% Peruvian Pima cotton yarn, unbelievably soft, wonderfully durable, and machine washable, too... Cotton the way you love to knit it!

Knit A Colorful Confection!

Reminiscent of a box of sweet French cookies, our Macaron Blanket knitting pattern lets you sample the bright, beautiful colors of our Cotton Chirp DK yarn, now available in 100-gram balls! This winsome Pima cotton's cheery palette makes choosing a 7-color Macaron Blanket Bundle as exciting as making your selections in the patisserie window... A real treat for color lovers!

3 Favorite DK Yarns For Sweater-Knitting

Pick from 3 beloved DK-weight yarns for your next sweater: Morning, with its cool-touch 75% cotton + 25% yak; Plein Air, which combines the best of both the animal and plant worlds with a beautiful mix of 67% merino wool + 33% cotton; or Cashmere Merino Bloom, a very soft and toasty warm yarn made from 25% percent exquisite cashmere + 75% extra fine merino wool.

Learn How Cotton Yarns Beat The Heat!

Cotton yarn is a natural experience with a quiet and deeply satisfying beauty. But what is it about cotton that helps it keep its cool no matter how high the temperatures rise? What are the different types of cotton, and which is best for your dish towel project? And what does "unmercerized" cotton mean and why do we love it?

I love everything about Purl Soho. Great patterns, fabulous yarn, much appreciated discounts (sales), and amazing customer service. I receive many more knit related emails than I can possibly keep up with, but I welcome and read every one of them from PS. Thanks!!

 

Sandra Lockhart

I've been shopping at Purl since for more than 20 years. This shop is consistently outstanding. From products, patterns and tools to hands-on HELP for long-time and novice knitters, everything is "top drawer." Service, tutorials and advise have not dipped one bit--even though Purl is now an online enterprise. Support this small business! It's a GEM.

I absolutely love Purl Soho and I am a devoted customer! Your products are of such high-quality and the projects are so creative and well organized. I am working on several, including the prism blanket. Again, your customer service is incredibly great.

I love Purl Soho knitting designs. They are simple, classic and beautifully architectural. Purl Soho offers lovely yarns, great customer service and on-line tutorials that are clear and to the point. Currently, I have a Striped Triangle Garter Wrap on my needles and yarn for another waiting in my stash. So many designs and not enough time!

I absolutely love the variety of the beautiful yarns from Purl Soho. Every yarn I’ve tried has such a lovely hand feel that makes knitting with it a pleasure. Their patterns are easy to follow with detailed explanations. I still consider myself a novice and they give me the confidence to be adventurous. And if I have questions or concerns, Zha Zha responds in a timely manner. I only wish that I could still go to their store in person!

This is one of the finest websites I have ever used. Yarns are beautiful, patterns are clear and accurate and service is unsurpassed.

Purl Soho is elegant and down-to-earth.. . . and helpful. I discovered it by accident. And am delighted. Not only are the ads well presented and lovely but the patterns are honest. And the yarn, yarns: really useable and soooo many varieties. Maybe accidents aren’t accidents at all but happen for a reason. Lucky for me I bumped into Purl Soho.

Purl Soho is my go to source for yarn and many patterns. In this day and age of disconcerting chaos in the world, time with beautiful yarn creating beautiful knitted products is peace for my soul at the end of a busy work day. Many thanks for your high quality products and highly responsive customer service as well as the great youtube instruction videos! Mastering brioche now!!
