I said to myself...

I should do something today besides knit.
And then I laughed and laughed.

CLARIFICATION! 

The MYSTERY KNIT ALONG before Christmas can be found on RAVELRY by the name “JUST FOR YOU TWO”. I realized ( today) that Laura Aylors knit along last year ( before she changed the name ) was called Just For You!  It is a free pattern until the 17 th. It states it is $5.00 , but when you hit PAY NOW you will see that the cost is crossed out and the pattern is free. 

THE COWL TO END ALL COWLS!!

  
Check out this amazing cowl by Kay Gardiner ( available on RAVELRY). Julie T. knit it for the shop using one of our new favorite yarns, PUYU  from Amano Yarns!  Man, is it soft! And warm. The pattern starts with a reversible cable down the center. Then you Kitchener the ends together to make a loop. You then pick up all around 1 side and work a 2×2 rib for while. You bind off loosely!!  Then pick up along the other side of the cable and work some  garter ridges.  You have to see ( and feel) this thing!!!  

 
This Saturday  is the next MAKE IT TAKE IT!!   

Come in a get your FREE kit!  Extras are just $5.00 each!! 

    Here is the shawl pattern for the MESSENGER HAT KIT!  Again, available colors are:  

 

Knit along !

  
Here is what I am going to use for my mystery knit along starting on December 18 th!  It is Malabrigo Mecha. It is a little more dense than the chunky, so I am going to use a size 11 needle rather than the 10.5 the pattern recommends. This may make the finished project a little larger, but I think that will be ok. 

I finished the Hat/Mitts kit from Wonderland Yarns!   

  Here are other color options!  

 
If you are not seeing these pictures you can always click on the blog below the heading and it should take you to the website where all the pictures are available.

 1st one is free!  If You want extra kits, they are just $5.00. Bring a set of size 2 needles to knit up your little swatch. And we  will show you how to attach it. 

Don’t forget about  MASS AVE KNIT SHOP GIFT CARDS!  We can do any amount,  so tell your Santa that is what you want for the holidays! THEY CAN CALL THE SHOP AND ORDER OVER THE PHONE. It doesn’t get much easier than that!
