We need your help!

Are you willing to share pictures of your projects with us?
Send them to Tracie (tracie AT amsden DOT net) and she'll get them posted on the blog.

To get the (yarn) ball rolling ...

This is one work in process (wip) that I am working on for an upcoming class at the shop.


This is called Calorimetry and is a free pattern from Knitty. I would love to say you will see more than one example at the class but I accidentally felted one ...oops!


Here's part of the description of the pattern from Knitty



"Calorimetry is a scientific term describing the measurement of heat lost or gained. Knit hats are a wonderful way to block out the cold, but when you have long hair it usually requires wearing it down, not often the most comfortable option on a blustery day. This headscarf allows you to wear your hair up while keeping your ears warm and preventing heat from escaping from the top of your head.
My friend Meredith wears hers all around San Francisco and is modeling it here on the Big Sur coast. This can be knit quickly for a last minute gift, and as it only requires one skein of yarn you can afford to knit one for all of your friends. "
