Living Dreams now has a Handmade Boutique!

We’ve chosen the most popular Living Dreams patterns to be knitted or crocheted by local fiber artists, ready to ship to you!

Each piece is made from scratch: our beautiful yarns are milled and hand-dyed locally and then knitted or crocheted using Living Dreams original designs. Each item is unique, one of a kind and made with love by a real person! Our knitters and crocheters are dedicated crafts people who take pride in every piece they produce.

When the item is finished, we carefully place it into a handsome organza gift bag and attach a wooden ornament hang tag with the ‘HANDMADE by Living Dreams’ label. Then we send it to you - to make you happy and keep you warm - or to give to a special someone in your life.

Feel good about buying natural fiber products... after all, they are meant to be used and worn for a long time. We believe that offering these high quality products is good for everyone: your purchase directly supports independent fiber mills, local farms and artisans, and their families and communities. We all thank you!

AIR MERINO Outlander Cowl

Again, inspired by the fabulous cowl worn by Claire in the Starz OUTLANDER series I designed a version that captures the spirit of generous proportions and bold texture. 

Claire's Cowl

The finished cowl is approximately 9" wide x 72" long and reversible - it can be worn wrapped or open.

The AIR MERINO Outlander Cowl design is based on an easy pattern combined with a fabulously extra thick super bulky yarn - this way even a knitting novice can have a cowl like Claire!

Here is everything you need: Super Bulky AIR MERINO yarn and big knitting needles and printed pattern in a convenient knit kit - choose your favorite color: AIR MERINO OUTLANDER COWL KNIT KIT

                                                       

AIR MERINO yarn gives this fabulous cowl the fashionably oversized stitch pattern and super soft squichy feel.

It is available in 18 gorgeous colors: AIR MERINO SUPER BULKY YARN

You can also download the pattern here: AIR MERINO OUTLANDER COWL PATTERN

The pattern is very well explained and the instructions are easy to follow - if you know the knitting basics you can make this cowl! Most knitters will complete this project over one weekend.

Last but not least: of course you can find Living Dreams Yarn and Fiber on ravelry:

Elegance Outlander Cowl

Inspired by the fabulous cowl worn by Claire in the Starz OUTLANDER series

Claire's Cowl

I designed this sumptuous cowl for a bit of Claire's romance in my life ;-)

Elegance Outlander Cowl

The cowl is knitted with my favorite Super Bulky Yarn ELEGANCE which is 70% Merino softness mixed with 30% Tussah Silk gloss... absolutely divine! 

I made one in every color: ELEGANCE YARN COLORS

The cowl design is very clever - it can be knitted with regular needles...no need to buy those large size circular needles that you will never use again. 

Actually the needles, yarn and pattern/photo tutorial are all included with the ELEGANCE Outlander Cowl Knit Kit - just pick your favorite color!

The finished Cowl is approximately 10" wide x 60" long - can be worn wrapped or open.

The pattern is very well explained and there is a photo for every stitch. It may look complicated but is actually quite simple. If you are a beginning knitter you can do this cowl!
