Natura Medium Summer Stole
Following the success of the Katia Stole from the first season, Saskia is now creating a summer version. Using the beautiful DMC Natura Medium yarn, she’s crocheting a light and airy stole with cheerful fringe. The stole looks great worn over bare shoulders and is perfect for a balmy summer evening!

Breiboezem Foundation
In this episode, Lotte takes a closer look at the Breiboezem Foundation. The foundation’s goal is to provide women who have been affected by breast cancer and have undergone a mastectomy with free knitted prostheses. These knitted prostheses are a good alternative to silicone prostheses because they are comfortable, washable, and feel “real.” Knitting of the prostheses is currently on hold, but people who wish to receive one can still sign up. More information is available on their website.
ByClaire No. 2 Summer Cardigan
In this episode, Petra knits a cute summer cardigan using ByClaire No. 2 blended yarn. Petra chooses the lovely, fresh color lime, with a border in white and Anthracite. This yarn comes in many different colors, so you can create your own trendy combination, too.
