Ribbon Yarn Sale + Pattern Ideas

Have you ever seen some of those beautiful ribbon yarns, but resisted buying them because you had no idea what you could make with them? We're big fans of using ribbon yarn to make creative and unique knitted and crocheted pieces - they can be used to create fabulous purses, shawls, hats, or even just as decorative trim. Not a fan of something made entirely out of ribbon yarn? Try carrying one strand of ribbon yarn with one strand of regular smooth yarn for a different look, or adding a contrasting stripe or edging of ribbon yarn into an otherwise plain project.

Here are some examples of projects that could be given a beautiful finished look by using a lovely ribbon yarn!
