Hue + Me is more than a yarn, it’s a craftstyle and vision of Two of Wands creator Alexi Tavel. This bulky weight blend of 80% acrylic and 20% wool can be stitched into everything from accessories to garments to blankets and home décor. As with all Two of Wands creations, style is not sacrificed as function and fashion seamlessly come together. There is no wrong way to pair the carefully curated 24-color palette of Hue + Me yarn. Each color works effortlessly on its own or pairs with any of the others, so worries of “will this match?” can be set aside as you focus on stitching your next creation. And when you’re done, feel free to put your creation to use because this easy care yarn is completely machine washable and dryable! I'm really challenged when I have to substitute a yarn for a garment. Not so with scarves and the like.

Round 4: Sc 2, 2 sc in next st, sc 20, (2 sc in next st, sc in next 2 sts) twice, 2 sc in next st, sc 20, 2 sc in next st, sc 2, 2 sc in last st. (60 sts)Row 2: ch 1, sc in first sc, then sc in first ch-1 sp, *ch 1, sk next sc, sc in next ch-1 sp, rep from * across, sc in last sc, turn. (143) Rejoin yarn at the inner right corner of either side and work 1 round of sc around entire top edge of bag, starting with 1 sc in each st of the top edge of the body, then 1 sc up each row of the next side edge, then 1 sc in each st of the top of the extended side, then 1 sc down each row of the next side edge, then 1 sc in each st of the top edge of the body on the other side, then 1 sc up each row of the next side edge, then 1 sc in each st of the top of the extended side, then 1 sc down each row of the next side edge, then sl st to join to the 1st sc of the round. Pattern is made using the moss stitch, which is a 2 row repeat. So you will be alternating between these two rows to create the blanket. Pattern will note when the repeat starts. The first thing I look at in any yarn is the texture. If a yarn doesn’t feel nice, it doesn’t make sense to use it for many projects. Hue & Me is soft and smooth, with no scratchiness at all in my opinion. It has a cozy, squishy, luxurious feel, perfect for garments, accessories, and home decor items like blankets and pillows.

I've been knitting the Friend to Friend Shrug with Lion Brand, Hue and Me yarn (acrylic and wool 80/20, #5 weight, designer's choice). It's such a fast, fun and easy pattern, great for gifts. My question...I've used Hue and Me for 4 shrugs and it's perfect for this capelet, but I'd like to use an all wool yarn and have the same look as using the Hue and Me..only a little more luxurious.In a nutshell, I'm looking for a yarn like Hue and Me, but in 100% wool. I didn't see anything on Yarn Sub only acrylic and wool options. First of all, Hue & Me is a category #5 Bulky weight yarn, in a blend of 80% Acrylic and %20 Wool. It comes in 125g / 4.4oz skeins, with 137yds / 125m per skein. Hue & Me is machine washable and dryable, too. Pattern notes when to switch colors, A = Hue + Me yarn in the color Desert, B = Hue + Me yarn in the color Toast, and C = Hue + Me yarn in the color Salt. All of the colors tend to be more soft and muted, and you won’t find a lot of bright colors in this yarn. I think these colorways are very pretty, though, and would work well with many people’s wardrobes. I chose to use Desert and Bellini in my Dip Dye Sweater, and I love the way these two shades look together! Learn how to make an easy 3 striped crochet blanket using this free crochet pattern.
