We're Back!

On our vacation we took long walks here and we sat here reading lots of books and we knit this into this then we reluctantly (did you notice all that sun!) flew home, tossed our knitting into the washer and dryer, and it transformed into this.Wondering ab

Margaret's been knitting

If you're thinking it looks like Kureyon, you're right—Margaret has knit another afghan.Yarn: Noro Kureyon, 12 balls Pattern: Domino Blanket by Lucy Neatby Technique: Put all balls of yarn into a brown paper bag, pull one out at random and knit a mitere

The Girl's Coat

In December we knit the Girl a Christmas coat and it’s been so popular we can hardly keep the pattern in stock.We don’t have a picture of our red coat (you’ll have to stop by the shop to see it) but one of our customers knit this lovely version in blue.

What's in Your Bag?

Finished projects from Venessa’s “What’s in Your Bag” felting class.Watch the schedule for a repeat of this class and other fun courses.

Lizard Ridge

We're been intrigued by the ingenious Lizard Ridge afghan since it first appeared in the Fall 2006 issue of Knitty but when we finally got started on the squares we realized we needed more Kureyon.So.

Lucy and Stephanie

If you read this, you'll be happy to know we have these (and we agree, the cast-off is brilliant!) Stop by and check them out on our shop computer.And for all of us sock knitters, Socks 1 and Socks 2 should be arriving any day.

Log Cabin Knitting

We love the Log Cabin Blanket from Mason Dixon Knitting—a traditional quilt pattern adapted for knitters.Margaret made a lovely version in Cascade 220 and she's starting a second.

Perfection Pants

If you're a mom who uses cloth diapers, you probably know about soakers.For the uninitiated, these woolen covers are a water-resistent, breathable alternative to synthetic covers—they're also really cute and fun to knit.

Holiday knitting is over...or is it?

Whew! We’re winding down from the frenzy of knitting all those lovely holiday gifts…well almost.We may have gifted a single sock or glove, with the promise of the mate coming soon.

Sweet Georgia has arrived . . . what more can we say?

The Hourglass At Last!

We procrastinated with sewing down the facings of the Hourglass, but it's finally finished.And we love it! Don't use us as a benchmark for knitting time—this is a fun project that goes quickly in the round.

Magical Mobius

We’d never tried the mobius cast-on but have been intrigued by it’s possibilities so we sat in on Sivia's Magical Mobius class Monday night.Here's the mobius cowl modeled by The Girl.

Hazy Scarves

We're in love with Rowan's Kid Silk Haze.We knitted the “Airy Scarf” from Last Minute Knitted Gifts a few weeks ago in hot pink, and since it's been draped over chairs (or necks) in the shop, lots of customers have fell in love with “the haze” as well.

We've Got More Koigu!

Our Koigu has arrived and we’re so excited by the KPM semi-solids—rich, complex colours with delicate shifts in tone.Each skein of fingering-weight merino contains 175yds/160m.

Lil' Devil Hat

The Girl has a new hat—just in time for Halloween.But we think she’ll be using this throughout the winter.

Blue Sky Hat

Not that The Girl needed another hat, but we couldn’t resist this great pattern from Blue Sky Alpacas.It's made of the softest cotton, fits really well, knits up in no time and is so cute.

Thanks to all our knitting (and crocheting) friends

Thanks for making our first two months such fun! We're expecting even more exciting times as the holidays draw near.Our classes have started and the students are all doing so well.

On and Off the Needles

Not much time for knitting, but we've managed to finish a few projects.We loved knitting the Noro Transitions scarf—this amazing yarn shifts both color and fiber content (wool, silk, cashmere, alpaca, angora, kid mohair and camel), each emerging magicall
