*New Neutrals*
These six patterns prove that sometimes neutral is best, and working with creams, tans, whites and blacks can yield stunning results.

*Fair Isle Faves*
We love a good fair isle pattern and these were the favorites from our issues this year. Cozy, traditional and always on trend!

Unique was the name of the game for these top 3 accessories. From reversible knits to interesting colorwork, these accessories make a cozy statement.

*Shades of Lavender*
Possibly the most calming color, these 3 sweaters are just oh-so-stunning in lavender shades and gorgeous stitches.
