Here are some projects we think would be a great fit for this yarn:
Ellen's Coming Home Set
Pattern by: PetiteKnit
The Ellen's Coming Home Set pattern is one I got very familiar with last year as I had multiple friends having babies! I made a few versions with buttons down the size like in the pattern, and altered a few to have a shorter button placket. The bonnet and pants were so fun to make too! Each of these are made out of Anchor Bay. It is so soft, not too hot, and also washable- perfect for babies!
Cost: $8

My Little Secret Crop
Pattern by: Jessie Maed Designs
This crop is SO cute for summer, or as a layering piece! Also, you can always count on Jessie Mae patterns to be size inclusive and well written. I love how this one has the option to have the straps cross in the back or not. I've made it a few times, most recently out of Anchor Bay in a salmon pink color! This would be so cute with the variegation of the Anchor Bay Handpaints!
Cost: $6

Winnie Top
Pattern by: Lily Kate France
Something wonderful about Anchor Bay, is that it can work as a summer or winter yarn. I think a short sleeve top is an in-between season garment, and therefore works well for an in-between season yarn! This top has such darling details, and could be perfect for spring and fall, as well as summer nights or layering in winter.

Cannelé twist scarf
Pattern by: HTJ-Feiblomster
Speaking of in-between season makes, this scarf is another wonderful option. With breezy lace details, but still a full length scarf, this would be a wonderful project to make with Anchor Bay.

Scarlet Cardigan
Pattern by: PetiteKnit
A nice cardigan is another great all-season option to have in your closet. Anchor Bay will keep you warm in the winter, but won't be as hot as an all wool alternative. With a simple pattern like this, it could be a very versatile layering piece out of a solid color, or you could make a statement with one of the variegated handpaints!
Cost: $7.95
