Don't you just LOVE yarn? To me, it screams winter and cozy! Trish and I were sent some wonderful yarns to try out from Lion Brand Yarns and I created these adorable "HOPE" letters to help my family celebrate the Christmas season!!
The yarns I used were from the Martha Stewart Crafts Lofty Wool Blend collection. The green is called "seedling green" and the red is called "red dahlia". Both of the yarns are saturated colors and matched the whimsical Christmas decor in my kitchen perfectly!
I used a tutorial by Bailey at Let Birdz Fly to guide me through wrapping the letters..she really does a great job!! The Lofty Wool Blend Yarn is thick and slightly bumpy, which is perfect for a heavier, winter, cozy, sweater-look!
I finished off my letters {which I got from Hobby Lobby } with a sweet pom-pom ribbon, which I also used on my "JOY" Christmas Countdown...LOVE IT!
