Christmas in July

In years past, we did classes and events in the shop during the month of July to prepare for the Holiday Season! This year is a little different...but we still want to crank out those Holiday gifts now...so we can just reach into the finished projects bin in December and gift away!!!

Each Monday at 7pm in July we will host a Zoom meeting (click here to launch the meeting - it will only work if it is 7pm on a Monday!) to work on our projects together.

One winner will be drawn each night for a $10 in shop gift certificate! You will receive 1 entry for every item you finish (face scrubbies are small, so 3 scrubbies will be 1 entry!) You are welcome to work on any gift you would like, but we recommend getting some Cotton Supreme and checking out our Christmas in July bundle on Ravelry! This bundle is filled with knitting and crochet (even Tunisian crochet!) patterns for those small and quick projects that are perfect for gifting to anyone on your list! And don't worry if you made them dishcloths last year, they can TOTALLY use more! Warning: these are so addictive and you will get people begging for more!!! Below are a few of my favorites...but there are so many more in the bundle (it is a curated list of patterns I have tried or know they are well written, but you can find a full list of patterns that use worsted weight yarn for knitting (click here) or crochet (click here)

Face Scrubbies


 Dish Cloths - Knit (you can even try out Portuguese knitting with this same pattern and a video link to help you learn!!)



Wash Cloth Tunisian Crochet



Hot Pads (this one is my FAVORITE!!! A friend made me a few about 5 years ago and they are the best!! I'm sad when they are in the wash!)


Another Crochet Hot pad (because OMG is it cute!!!!!)




This is a GREAT time to tackle a technique you have always wanted to try!!!

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
