Friday Follies (new products)

Do you have curious cats who like to "help" you knit? Do you have yarn that likes to run all over when you are knitting with it or is too precious to risk leaving it unprotected?

These just came in this week and promise to be "The Ultimate in Fiber Protection"















New sock yarn is in as well!

Friday visitors

Nancy is working on finger puppets for her grandchild

Annette is almost finished with Katie's cardigan.

Marguerite has finished a shawl in a cotton/wool blend

Hypothetically speaking of course....

What if you've been working on something for 2 weeks.... but when you put your hand in the mitten you notice 2 rows that are SO TIGHT that you think you may break the yarn?

Rip?

Frame and hang on the wall?

Find a friend with small hands?

Gorgeous Sweater Sarah!

Sarah brought in her finished sweater made of Dale Heilo yarn last night and modeled it for us. Our only question was - " Where are all the little hanging ends that we see on our sweaters? "

Thank you Tammy!

I was in the shop tonight looking for inspiration for something to put on that big white stripe on my Warmest Mittens for the Bulldog Hockey silent auction. Tammy suggested crossed hockey sticks. She's brilliant!

Don't they look great?

They are ready to turn over to the committee for the silent auction tomorrow.

BYOB Market Bag from Knitty

These are shots of the BYOB Market Bag from Knitty that I'm making for a class at the store that begins this July 31st.

I am making it out of Blue Sky Alpaca Organic Cotton. Is it crazy that I'm already thinking of the next bag and the yarn I want to use for that one? Maybe a sport weight one, how about Lace Weight for a dainty bag?

New Yarn!

Have you stopped in lately?

Summer may not be the time you want to work on that wool afghan, but how about stopping in and getting inspired by some of the finished objects at the store!

First Grandbaby!

Seanna was born June 2 and lives in Los Angeles. I spoiled her for 2 weeks. She loves her new blankey!
