Susan will be at the shop on Thursday from 11-3 if you need anything!   Just give Susan a call and we can ship out to you!

If you have your yarn or want to join the Malabrigo Dos Tierras knit along using Joji Locatelli’s pattern Odyssey, don’t forget to go to the Malabrigo website and sign up for prizes offered by the yarn maker for this project.  Under Recent news, click on the Malabrigo KAL and then go down to Sign up.  You can also get the pattern at this site or go to Ravelry to get your free copy.

Here are some groupings we have put together for this project:

Also, Westknits’ new pattern drops tomorrow (Wednesday)!!!! It is called Painting Bricks Shawl.

Here is Susan’s yarn choice-

The shawl pattern has both fingering weight and DK weight options. Stephen mentioned that you can use lace weight mohair doubled, so that is what I am doing!! I am using Malabrigo sock for my Main Color (mc). I am using Lang Yarns Lace Mohair. The pattern calls for 8 Contrast Colors (cc).

Cindy spent time the other day putting together some possibilities fo the shawl using Baah LaJolla minis!
Here they are! Let me know if you want me to send one (or 2) to you!
Pictures have numbers to help us get the one you want. Kits run from $120- $156 depending on your main color.

We can mix MC if you want.  Just let us know!

I want to introduce you to Luke, the Wool Enthusiast! He is a knitter/designer from Fishers, Indiana. We met him while he was teaching classes at Vogue Knitting in Columbus! Once we are back and the shop is open I have asked him to come and teach one of his designs, a brioche hat! I am going to start a sign-up, so let me know if you are interested. Here is the pattern:

Stay Safe and Healthy.

Most of you know Liza Crane and the work she does with Horizon House and the homeless of Indianapolis! This is a request she sent to me today!! Please help out if you are able!

Can you put the word out that I need fabric sewn masks for non-patient care use?
I’m running a safe recovery site for the homeless. 260 beds. Lots of staff.
Thanks, ❤️Liza

Mail the masks to Liza Crane at 615 E Minnesota St. Indianapolis, IN 46203 or drop off at the shop on Monday.

Also, there are a couple of fun things coming up during our quarantine! We are still proceeding with the Malabrigo Dos Tierras Knit along. It uses 1 skein each of 3 colors in this amazing yarn! The pattern is Odyssey by Joji Locatelli and is free on Ravelry!  I am going to go to the shop on Monday to take orders if you want to join us! I will be at the shop from 11-2 pm. Just call and I can send you the yarn. I will post the colors of both on Facebook and Instagram!  If you are not signed up for either of those, call me at the shop and I can text or describe the colors in stock!!  You will want 24” and 40” size 8 needles. The pattern calls for size 11, but you will run out of yarn by using that size needle.

Also, Berroco has a knit along coming up! They are also doing drop ship to customers! There are Many Cardigan patterns that they are suggesting for the KNIT-A-LONG !  I will send out more info as I get it!

If at all possible sign up to follow me on Facebook- Mass Ave Knit Shop or Instagram- susan_maks. Both are easier and faster for me to get out information about what I am doing during the quarantine!

I hope you are all doing well! Message me or call me at the shop on Monday if you need ANYTHING!
