Plus it will take less than a night to knit, in fact this scarf takes only an hour or so. First up, easy, and yes people, I mean easy-peasy pumpkin-peasy scarves. If all you know how to do is knit, then you can do this scarf. The yarn is a plush microfiber. It's one of the scarves that were all the rage in Europe. What better way to finish a project then to knit it in an hour. You'll need 2-3 skeins of yarn and Size 10 & 13 needles.

We've got a new shipment in. So come on in this week, grab your yarn, bring your needles, and I'll even supply the pattern for FREE. Come sit and knit with us and get a real jump on this crowd-pleasing scarf.

New Yarns Streaming In


The past few weeks we have had lots of new yarns come into the shop. We have the Classic Elite fall yarns. Most of these yarns are wool or wool blends and range from solid colors to tweed and semi solids. These yarns are also in many weights from Dk to worsted and heavy worsted. Each of these new lines also came with their own pattern books. We also had some beautiful Dk Frog Tree solids come in as well. From Trendsetter we recieved new Dune in white, It's really pretty and would make a very pretty shawl or sweater for chritsmas. There are also some great varigated yarns as well. Vigna is another of their new yarns which looks like chenille but its wool and acrylic. The most beautiful scarves have been made from this yarn as well as another that has a bit of gold glitz within the yarn. This is great to dress up a nice jacket or outfit as a scarf or shawl. It would also make a great and beautiful sweater.

In the wonderful world of baby we also recieved a new shipment of the Splash Dk in 7 different colors, this makes fabulous baby blankets and sweaters both knitted and crocheted. We also have some Spot on baby dk in 9 different colors. This one knits up as spots. Also makes great sweaters and blankets for the little baby in your life.

Calling all the washcloth lovers we have 25 new cotton colors from Swedish Yarns. One skein is usually enough to make 2 washcloths. The next free washcloth class will be November 20th from 3 to 5pm.

Beautiful


There is nothing sweeter than seeing my hand knits on a beautiful baby girlie. It seems like a lifetime ago that my baby girl would wear whatever I knit. Now that she's a big 11 year old, she is choosy about what she wear. Even though I see her as a little girl, she's blossoming into a tall almost teen.

So knit the adorable cute Swing Coat while you can. Knit for your hope chest for that "someday" grandchild. I've got a chest full of hand knits for future grandchildren. There is something so satisfying about finishing a project lickety-split. Nothing faster to practice your growing knitting skills on.

Our class is scheduled to take place on Thursday, September 16,23 & 30th from3-5pm. It goes up to a generous size 3 and is perfect for the upcoming season. If you are a working girl, not to worry, you can always take this class in our Thursday Night, 6-8pm All Skills Knitting Clinic, or our Sunday Afternoon, 1-3pm,All Skills Knitting Clinic.


I anticipate this class going fast so be sure to call us at 916.714.7719 to reserve your space.
