Watch out: It’s a JOY MAKER! Blingola is a BLING BOMB for your needles! Think holiday sparkle, disco fever, and just enough shine to be the light of the party.
Kits are available for Blingola in my shop!!!
Blingola was Nov. 2025’s Lola’s Choice kit and spots are sold out!! Members can make either Blingola Scarf OR Blingola Shrug — PLUS The Book Thong. How’s that for a holiday bonus?
Blingola Scarf is worked tip to border, you’ll start with just a few stitches — and quickly get acquainted with your sparkly new yarn. With my favorite boomerang shaping, this wearable scarf goes with everything, including a turtleneck and jeans OR your fav LBD (little black dress). Need something to throw on for a holiday party? I’ve got you!
Blingola Scarf is knit with two fabulous yarns — Lola’s Blingola and Pascuali Puno. The fabric these two yarns make together is perfection. They are knit together at a loose gauge, allowing the fabric to drape and the sequins to easily pop to the front of your work. Knitting with bling has never been so easy!
