I’ve used Berroco Comfort to make a lot of winter accessories. Most recently, I crocheted a hat for my nephew and knit a pair of fingerless gloves for myself. It seems only natural that a scarf would be next on my Comfort “knit list.” As I was looking for patterns on Ravelry, I noticed that… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Comfort Scarves

Get to Know Berroco: Norah Gaughan
What I’m about to say may shock you. Before I started here at Berroco, I didn’t know much about Norah. Sure, I had heard her name and even queued a few of her designs on Ravelry, but I was mostly a crocheter and I didn’t pay much attention to those kinds of things. Looking back… Continue reading Get to Know Berroco: Norah Gaughan
Knitter’s Spotlight: Avi by Eileen Vito
Eileen Vito’s first knitting project went to the dogs. I mean that literally, of course. She knit sweaters for her two dogs. Unfortunately, both dogs gained weight and the sweaters got too tight. Eileen says she’s pretty sure this is just a coincidence and not a reflection of their feelings about her knitting! Either way,… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Avi by Eileen Vito
Holiday Patterns: Valentine’s Day
I love holidays and any reason to knit or crochet. You might not think there would be much to make for smaller celebrations like Valentine's Day, but I found quite a few patterns on Ravelry. Since tomorrow's the big day, I thought I'd share a couple of quick knits and a really cute crochet decoration.… Continue reading Holiday Patterns: Valentine’s Day
Knitter’s Spotlight: Colorful Mittens
I’ve been a glove girl for years, but I’m ready for a change. Mittens are on my “Must Knit” list this winter because they’re warmer, easier to slip on and tend to be more colorful – so I can easily spot the one that inevitably falls out of my pocket in a dark parking lot!… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Colorful Mittens

What a week! We flew to Long Beach last Thursday morning for The National Needlearts Association's spring trade show and just got back to the office yesterday. It was amazing how much we were able to fit into a long weekend! In addition to running our booth, we helped out with the fashion show and… Continue reading TNNA Review
Knitter’s Spotlight: Kat Coat by JessieAtHome
When I was a little girl, I would have loved to have a knitted sweater coat like the ones Jessie Rayot made for her four-year-old twins. Okay, if I’m being totally honest I still want one as an adult! With beautiful colored panels, a full skirt for spinning and an adorable elfin hood, Rayot’s Kat… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Kat Coat by JessieAtHome
Behind the Scenes: Spring/Summer 2013 Photo Shoot Video
You've seen our new yarns and our beautiful new designs for Spring/Summer 2013. Now you can watch the behind the scenes video from our photo shoot on Cape Cod last fall.

Knitter’s Spotlight: Cool Winter Hat Patterns
In my opinion, there’s nothing like a new knitted winter hat to get you excited to be out in the cold. It might sound silly, but I speak from experience. I used to live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and some days, the opportunity to show off my “chook” (that’s what Yoopers call a knit… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Cool Winter Hat Patterns
