Silk Needle-Felted Scarf Class


Upcoming Class: Needle Felted Silk Scarf. Everyone has been asking what the scarf was that I'm wearing in my new Facebook Photo. This is one of those projects that are easy and fun. No knitting skills are necessary.

You can be as creative as you want. If you are worried you won't be enough of an artist to create one of these masterpieces, no worries I'll give you all the tips and tricks to make it look like a professional created it.

Class will be July 30th from 6-9pm or July 31st from 3-6pm. Cost of the class is $65.00 and includes the Silk Scarf Kit. You will also need a Needle Felting Tool and Needle Felting Brush. Both will be available at a 10% discount and are needed for the class.

This Class is NOT on the schedule. You will want to call Knitique at 916.714.7719 to sign up. We can't wait to have you join in on this new summer class.

Have you Yelped?


I'm not sure if you are all familiar with Yelp. It's a great place to go when you are out of town and want to find out the best place for breakfast in your local town. While on a recent visit to Ventura, I was looking for the "Best Breakfast" I have the Yelp application on my iphone and found the perfect place for breakfast that filled my family up for at least a few hours. If you haven't visited Yelp, you've got to try it out. Knitique even has a page on Yelp. If you've got a minute and wouldn't mind writing a review, we'd love for out of towners to hear your opinions on our Fabulous Yarn Boutique.

Now on to Knitting news. Gorgeous Cottons, and Summer Blends have been arriving in our store daily the last few weeks. We've found some new yarns we couldn't live without and some old favorites that work year after year.

Come on in, and join us in the Spring Frenzy.

Addi Lace Clicks are soon to be in the house!


If you all are anything like me, I was happy that Addi developed their interchangeable system. But I'm a big user of the Addi Lace, so though it was nice, it never really excited me enough to order any for Knitique. Every time I called Skacel to place an order for yarn or their fabulous Addi Lace needles, I'd ask when will the Addi Lace Clicks be available. They weren't sure but they put me on the list. They soon got tired of me asking and low and behold I got an email from Rob this morning letting me know that the Addi Clicks have been developed and they would be expecting an order in April.

So what's so awesome about the clicks:
The addi Lace Click system provides 8 different sizes of addi Lace tips (3.5mm, 3.75mm, 4.0mm, 4.5mm, 5.0mm, 5.5mm, 6.0mm, 8.0mm), five different lengths of our new, extremely pliable blue cord (16", 20", 24”, 32” and 40”), and one connector piece which helps to either store stitches or combine your cords. The Click tips require no tools to change; simply insert the cord deep into the tip, twist and release. The tips will remain secure until you change them, thanks to the Click’s revolutionary locking mechanism!

For those who use certain needles more than others, you can purchase extra cords and extra needle tips for the sizes you use most frequently. I know when I've been on a trip and I start swatching, it always seems like I don't have the size I need. In this case, I'd just have to trade out the needle tips and start another size.
Starting tomorrow we will be taking preorders for the Addi Lace Click System. A $90.00 deposit will hold your set with the remaining balance due when the sets come in. Due to the limited nature of this product we will not be giving any discounts on these Click Systems.

And if you are worried about what cute case you'll be storing these in. I've found a fabulous Interchangeable Needle Case from Della Q, one of my favorite people to do business with.

Here's a little information on her cases
: The case holds 15 tips to allow for the smaller interchangeable sets. Tip pockets are dual numbered! Includes six pockets for your cords and a zip pocket for connectors.

US 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10.5, 10.75, 11, 13, 15, 17
Metric 2.75, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12
These wonderful cases come in Purple, Seafoam, Ocean, Pink, Green, Brown, Red and Mauve for only $36.00. Be sure to pre-order your case when you order your needles.


If you can't come in tomorrow, you can call us at 916.714.7719 to reserve your set today. They will be arriving they anticipate the middle of April, and I was told, I was one of the first shops to order, so we will definitely get them in the first batch.

Here's to clicking into the future!

For the Love of Knitting


I'm sure you'll notice the calendar is not available on the side bar. We had a computer hard drive crash on our shop's computer instigated by my beautifully talented six year old. We've had it fixed and upgraded but some of the programs we used to put the calendar on the site are still missing. I'm hoping on Tuesday to be able to fix the kinks and have it up here. In the meantime we've got lots of copies at the shop. And if I do say it again, we've outdone ourselves once again. You'll love what we've got planned this month. Fabulous, Fun Classes.

Beware of 6 year olds with an aptitude for pressing multiple buttons at once.

Back to our Regular Scheduled Program



We had an incredible day yesterday, with over a dozen people waiting in line for the doors to open. I know it sounds crazy to some of you, but the New Year's Day Sale is something we all look forward to. What better way to start your day then sitting in your pajamas, enjoying an incredible breakfast feast, and enjoying a Store-wide Sale. The perfect way to start the New Year.

As of today, we will be open our regular hours. Today will be the first day of our Finish your old projects. I've told several of you at the shop that my Knitting New Year's Resolutions is at the beginning of the month, I have to finish one old project then I can start a new one. I've got a perfect first project to finish, slippers for the little boy. I just have one cuff and a sole, maybe an hours worth of knitting, sew then, and felt them when he get back from his Auntie's.

It's a good thing too, because yesterday at the shop we found the perfect "FAST" pattern to knit up a jacket. I want to swatch and get started for the class we will be hosting on Friday nights. Nothing gets me motivated quicker than a super fast project that I can knit in a few days and wear it next week.

Free Holiday Classes

As promised we've got some great EASY projects that we will be teaching for FREE this next week. Bring a friend and spend some quality time knitting something just for you or for someone special. You can even get a head start on your Christmas or Birthday giving for next year.

One Night Stand



This beautiful scarf is made with a Chunky Alpaca. They call for only 1 skein of Chunky Alpaca, but being a girl with shall we say "Big Girls" I can't have a scarf end resting on my "Girls" so I'm calling this the Two Night Stand. You need 2 skeins of Baby Alpaca Chunky and a size 10 needle. This pattern is nice because they give you both the written directions for the lace work as well as a chart for those who love chart reading.

This Class will be offered on

Saturday: December 26th from 10-12 and 4-6pm
Tuesday: December 29th from 2-4pm

and Thursday: December 31st from 10-12pm

the second class we will be offering is a gorgeous Spiral Rib Hat

This hat is a nice spiral design which is easy to knit with the help of two markers. What I love about the pattern is it works with any yarn. They've done all the math and you just knit a swatch plug in the numbers and voila you've got a pattern. We are making this
out of a thick thin yarn which give both visual and textural interest.

We will be offering this class:

Saturday, December 26 1-3pm
Tuesday, December 29 4-6pm

and Thursday, December 31 1-3pm
