Cozy Alpaca

We have carried Cozy Alpaca Chunky for awhile, but we just added the worsted weight version to the mix.  I absolutely fell in LOVE with the sweater below and saw someone knit it with this yarn and I knew it had to come to the shop! Pattern can be found here:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/brecken-sweater Buuuuut....then the yarn arrived and this pattern came with it.... Pattern can be found here (or FREE if you purchase the yarn from A Little Knitty):  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/georgia-sweater-3 So now I'm completely torn and will probably cast on both! ;) You can find the yarn in-store or online HERE

New in the shop

We just received in some fun new books & an adorable stitch marker necklace.  Designed by Wool & Wire. This artisan necklace features a teardrop shaped clasp that holds up to 13 stitch markers comfortably. The 36" adjustable linen cord is the perfect length for adding or removing stitch markers while you are knitting. Each piece of jewelry includes one stitch marker attached. Stitch markers are created one of a kind. Colors may vary. Each luxury piece in the Wool and Wire collection is handcrafted in the US from copper-core wire dipped in .999 pure silver with genuine fresh-water pearls and faceted crystals. Hypoallergenic. This artisan necklace has been designed with knitters in mind to serve two purposes. The removable, decorative charms double as functional stitch markers for your knitting! You can create a whole new look every day by adding or subtracting different markers and always be prepared for a knitting emergency. We only purchased a couple of these....if we sel...

Free Pattern Alert - Godric's Hollow Hat

I totally ended up stealing this hat...it was just too cute!! I haven't blocked it yet...but I did add a couple inches to the pattern (it said to knit until 6" from the cast on...I think 8-10" is a little better). Oh...and this stitch soaks up a LOT of yarn...so be prepared to use up almost 100g of Rios. We have some new colors of Rios in stock (I used Greenish Blue) The free pattern can be found here:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/godrics-hollow-hat

Major Restock and FREE PATTERN LINK

Shop favorite MAJOR is back in stock!! This yarn COMPLETELY sold out just before Christmas because it's super popular for bulky projects that work up fast. Lately, a lot of people have been requesting it for afghans too! And we have a Tunisian crochet class in February that utilizes the fun color changes in a log cabin-style blanket!  I just found this free pattern on Ravelry that would be AMAZING with this yarn! Not a Celebrity Scarf (but it should be) The person on Ravelry used one ball of Major in the Sunset Sky colorway.
