There is still time to knit or crochet a fabulous item to give as a gift especially with a yarn like
Franca! Since the Fairmount Fibers team first
introduced Franca, the color palette has expanded as well as the number of patterns to support this yarn.

Babies may be little, but big knits look adorable and keep them cozy! The
Simple Bulky Moss Stitch Baby Blanket and
Matching Hat will look great in a bold, neutral or gender-specific color palette. The
Arenque Cowl, with the herringbone stitch pattern, will showcase the color shifts for a unique accessory.
Quick Franca Mitts will keep hands warm this winter, if you're shopping, making deliveries, or clearing the snow off the car. These patterns are all
