Welcome to Week 3 

Brought to you by Red Heart Holiday Yarn

 

 

This week’s pattern was inspired by Red Heart Holiday yarn. This yarn is a worsted weight yarn in eight holiday colors, with a metallic thread running through the full length. The yarn has a bit of a wavy curl and works up nicely in many projects. It is soft, easy care and quite pleasant to work with!
