In 2025, Ancient Arts color of the month will be on items that spark creativity and inspiration. For February - it is the shoreline. See below for more on what they say on this colorway.
Your purchase is for a skein of Socknad....a yummy and squashy fingering weight yarn. Each 100 gram skein of Socknado has 385 yards (350 meters) of 80% superwash fine merino / 20% nylon goodness. And here are a few of our favorite patterns:
Window into Winter - a lovely crocheted shawl
Sassles - a fun knitted shawl in two colors by NellKnits
Sharon's Pre Game by Casapinka - an assymetrical shawl in two colors with a great stitch!

Everyone at Ancient Arts loves to visit the sea, and so what better for a theme for February than a holiday at the seaside? Ocean coastlines form the inspiration for our featured colourway Shoreline.
Some of my fondest travel moments come from camping right on the beach on Vancouver Island, and on the Sunshine Coast. When I was a child one could camp on the beaches on the west side of Vancouver Island and places like Long Beach and Combers Beach held so much magic for us! The massive driftwood logs allowed one to spend hours playing games like don't touch the sand, the waves were endlessly beautiful and swimming, while cold, was fun too. Some of the most magical moments on the coast come when the mists roll in off the ocean and everything is shrouded in mystery. Colours are softened, sounds are muffled, and a walk along the shoreline through the trees and grasses all combine to be incredibly beautiful!
