There will be opportunity for Q&A & other fun surprises like giveaways & pattern discounts for those who join!

Knitting with Whimsy: The Gnomes of Grimblewood!

In the depths of Grimblewood forest, tucked away under rustling pine and spruce trees, you’ll find the Grimblewood gnomes: an eclectic and kindly bunch, ready to welcome anyone who rambles their way. 

Gnomes are a surprisingly popular knitting sensation. What is it about gnomes and why should you incorporate a little whimsy into your hobby?

Sarah Schira, author of the upcoming book “The Gnomes of Grimblewood: Enchanting friends full of magic and mischief”, will talk about the unexpected journey gnomes have taken her on, introduce the 8 gnomes in the book, and discuss how adults can benefit from play.

Register now to explore Grimblewood and play along with Sarah and her world of gnomes at this Fiberside Chat!

This is a live Zoom Event on Sunday, September 22nd at 3:00pm Eastern, 2:00pm Central, 1:00pm Mountain, 12:00pm Pacific

THIS CHAT WILL BE RECORDED

Your ZOOM Link will be sent the evening before and about 1 hour before the event. Check your spam filter if you do not see it.

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!):  Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here:  Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!

Chemo Caps - Part 2

The Gia Chemo Cap doesn't have the same sort of story behind it as the Karen Cap , but it was developed with Chemo patients in mind! Please share this pattern with anyone who would like to knit a hat for someone in need! You can download your pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gia-chemo-cap
