Just Pics
It’s wild and crazy at the shop – thank you so much! – and so much to do even when we’re closed, that I’m just posting pictures this week:
This is what UPS delivered last Wednesday morning: Cascade, Plymouth, Debbie Bliss, Manos – and much more! We really scrambled to get this onto shelves (some have not made it – I got Casbah from Fleece Artist – so beautiful, but I haven’t finished chuckling and rubbing my hands and gleefully murmuring “I’m rich, I’m rich!” to myself. I’ll share it soon, I promise.)
Whooppeeeeee – lots of new yarn!
I finished the foulard in Ella Rae’s Lace Merino and the pattern is now free with purchase of any hand-dye at the shop:
This is as knitted:
This is while blocking:
And this is Karen modeling:
Light, lovely, easy, quick!
I also finished the top-down sweater in Superior (laceweight cashmere/silk) from a Cocoknits pattern. This was last week’s status:
And these show two ways to wear the finished garment. Just took 2 balls, so soft and pretty!
Donna Guthrie designed this Seaman’s Scarf – the pattern is available for sale at the shop. She has made it in several yarns: Kid Classic from Rowan, Sportweight Alpaca from Frog Tree, and Adagio from skacel’s Primera collection, all very pretty. This is in the alpaca:
And this is Janet modeling a wonderful wrap she just finished in Debbie Bliss Luxury Donegal Tweed, with another version of Donna’s scarf around her neck. The wrap is a design from Plymouth which we modified to make in one piece. (Doesn’t she look great? This is a terrific color for her, n’est-ce pas?))
I want one!!!
Annette Lengel made this old-fashioned baby bonnet from a vintage pattern in Panda Silk – it’s too cute:
Britta Hyneman made this adorable little baby sweater in Encore from a pattern from Last Minute Knitted Gifts:
and Sandy Albert is finishing up some kids’ projects too. This is in yummy Cashsoft DK from a favorite hoodie pattern:
and this is modified from a Knit One Crochet Too pattern, to size it up from baby to little girl:
Jeannie Edfort made this amazing shrug from Sari Silk and various coordinating yarns:
She also makes and sells these fabulous bags at her Etsy store, www.GloryByJeannieLee.etsy.com. Wow!
What a week!! Come by soon….
