THIS WEEK:
We're offering two classes with Michele Bernstein, author of Brioche, Knit, Love. We recommend enrolling early--class space is limited, and you'll have a small amount of homework prior to each class.
Petite Brioche, 10:00a - 12:00p more details here. $40
Fixing Knitting Mistakes, 1:30 - 3:30 more details here. $40
No social stitching this Saturday, July 22nd.
8:00a - 8:00p We'll be open extended hours in conjunction with the Ellensburg Night Market. The Night Market takes place from 5:00p - 9:00p on Pine Street.
9:00a - 1:00p (no social stitching)
We added a new gradient-striped DK weight cotton to the shop, Cotton Supreme Waves from Universal Yarn. We've stocked eight of the speckled colorways, and you'll love the feel of the knitted fabric--and its easy care.
We also added three new skin tone shades of Bamboo Pop, which support a new free amigurumi doll pattern, but which are also perfect for Knitted Knockers. You can find the range of Knitted Knocker patterns here, and remember that Yarn Folk is a drop off site--we pay postage to send them to Knitted Knockers, where they are distributed free to anyone who needs them. Knitted Knockers carefully vets the yarns accepted for use, and Bamboo Pop is one that is approved for either knit or crochet.
I finally feel like I have my bearings while working on the crocheted Aixellence Tank Top, The Chaski crochets like a dream. This design is worked side to side, and I'm almost to the center front.
I finished my first main color skein on the Quill Tee, and have 5 1/2" of stockinette before the hem. This is my car knitting, and when the family carpool is disrupted and I have to drive myself, my progress suffers!
