Did you know the Berroco Design Team creates nearly 200 new patterns every year? While we’re constantly thinking up new designs, we still love to see that people are continuing to knit some of our enduring favorites. You know the ones I mean.

Berroco yarn is manufactured in mills all over the world, but we do most of our buying twice a year at a huge trade show in Florence, Italy. That’s where our beautiful Berroco Cirrus comes from. There’s an interesting story about this fine Italian yarn, and the family that makes it, in tomorrow’s KnitBits.
Pre-knitted yarns are a big trend this year. They look cool and they tend to be a quick knit. That’s the case with our free pattern Wink, which is knit with Berroco Link.
I love when designers share their knitting inspiration. If you’re like me, you’ll want to check out tomorrow’s KnitBits.
