Summer Knitting with WoolDreamers' New Saona Yarn: 3 Patterns to try!

Our love for knitting knows no season! Are you gearing up for some warm weather knitting and planning out your summery handmade wardrobe? Saona is the brand new yarn from WoolDreamers, and it will be the perfect yarn for your summer knits! A fingering weight 50/50 wool and cotton blend from Spain, Saona has an intriguing texture and heathered tone. The talented designer Hailey Smedley (known as Ozetta) lent her soft and subtle color sense to develop the yarn line's beautiful palette for a collection of lovely neutrals.

We've assembled a few patterns that we think would be so perfect in Saona. A bit of colorwork, a bit of texture, and a super-wearable simple tee by Ozetta herself! Let's dive in.

1. Harvest Tee by Ozetta

While her first design specifically for Saona is still in testing (keep an eye out for the Air Tee soon!), you can get started on Ozetta's Harvest Tee. A great sweater for beginners, this is a timeless piece to add to your wardrobe!
