Greenwood Waltz

This new version uses Painted Sky and big needles so your work goes even faster. The pattern really shows off the marled, softly striping colors of Painted Sky. It takes just two skeins to create. Due to the lace three-three rhythm we’ve called it Greenwood Waltz. You can purchase the pattern at the shop or on...

Fall Knitalong Announced
Our knitalong this fall will feature a flattering and unusual sweater designed by Carol Feller of Stolen Stitches. Ravi has interesting construction, with a yoke that’s knit sideways and shaped to fit with short rows. The rest of the sweater is then picked up and knit downwards.
