Spring is nature’s way of saying, “Let’s Party!”

Sara — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:48:33 +0000

The explosion of color in our new spring and summer yarns makes all of us want to party. Colors of daffodils, tulips, pansies and fresh green grass. That’s what you’ll find when you walk into the shop.

Araucania’s Ruca and Ruca Multi made from 100% sugar cane feels lusciously soft and cool to the touch. Cascade’s new Ultra Pima – 100% Pima Cotton – 220 yards and at an unbelievable cost! Katia’s Tobago with a long run print in fun bright summer colors. Numerous pattern books have arrived to make selecting your next project with these and the rest of our yarns so easy.

Vogue Knitting “Headtrips”

Sara — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 19:50:19 +0000

If Vogue Knitting is right, hats will be a hot item this fall and winter.

I’m making the one pictured here out of the fabulous Mericash Solid in the slate blue pictured below #401.

If it turns out for me as well as it did for Vogue Knitting, everyone’s going to want one for seasonal gift giving.

We’ll make plenty of kits in a variety of colors and offer classes for those who don’t know how to use double-pointed needles.

What fun!
