Happy New Year
Things have been very busy at the shop! The sale of the building did not go through, but there is new interest🤞. I will keep you posted if anything changes. I will be in the Virginia Ave. Location for a while longer.
However, we have many new and fun things combining up starting this Friday!
1. Westknits Jigsaw Puzzle Blanket- this Friday Jan. 6th and Sat. Jan. 7 at 10 am. We will work through the first 4 sections of the pattern. We will meet the 1st Friday and Saturday of each month to talk abut the next 4 sections and finish (hopefully) by the end of the year!
This is mine so far!
The pattern uses 2 strands of fingering weight, but the finished size is only 45”, so I am using 3 strands of fingering weight for a finished width of around 54”. 1 strand of DK and 1 strand of fingering weight should work as well. Bring your fingering weight yarn, also DK will work if you triple strand fingering weight. Size 10- 11 24” circular will be fine. We will also sell you yarn if you do not have leftovers 😉. Also, bring a couple of the 4” stitch holders. You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry. We can also, sell you the pattern.
2. I have finished my Advent Calendar sweater 2022 and I could no be happier! Emma’s yarns dyed our kits this year and her colors are beautiful!
I knit the Sorrel Sweater and strand Emma’s Mohair along with the 24 minis from the Advent kit. We still have a few kits left in stock. Available in store and on our website.
