We might not be flying to Paris for the games, but we sure can have some fun here at home!!

Join us on Friday, July 26th at 6pm as we kick off our project(s) for the olympics...here is what to expect...

Pick ANY project(s) that you like. Bring the yarn and the naked needles to our first meeting and cast on (please note this can be knit or crochet). We will log in your project(s)!

During the games (at home) knit and crochet your little heart out.

Come on back on Sunday, August 11th at 6pm to show off all your amazing work, log how many grams of yarn you used during the games and share any highlights that you enjoyed from the games.

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.

The shop sells a DK cotton that would also work beautifully for these cuties - Ricorumi Another bookmark pattern is Leaf Bookmark & Garland Motif by Joey Diehl . This pattern is FREE and calls for Worsted weight yarn, so Uptown Worsted would be perfect for this. How about a sweet pocket friend for a child? This one is super basic, called Worry Pet by Blue Fox Paws and is a FREE pattern and uses any gauge yarn! It would be fun to use a textured yarn, or a fuzzy kind, but any yarn works. You can opt to put the ears on or not. We have safety eyes in the shop, too! Do you know someone who uses Airpods and could use a co...
