Read MoreAre You Ready to Knitalong?
Our newest knitalong begins this Saturday, September 24, at 5 pm. We considered choosing from a new designer but we all loved Vonica, by Chicknits, so much that we decided it had to be our fall project. Bonne Marie Burns, the designer behind Chicknits, also created Cassidy, our spring knitalong pattern. Vonica is an extremely flattering, open-front cardigan with a simple lace pattern and interesting construction. Knit in a light worsted or DK yarn, it’s a great lightweight sweater that will get a lot of wear in our Pacific Northwest weather. We have knit our shop sample in Rowan Felted Tweed. It’s soft and fluffy but still shows off the lace pattern nicely. To participate in our knitalong simply come by the shop and pick up the Vonica pattern and select your yarn. Then join us for our kickoff celebration on Saturday for prizes and pattern support. Continue at our on-going pattern support sessions (dates and times are on our Classes page). Be sure to come to the final wrap up party on January 7 to be included in our grand prize...
