Show & Tell Friday...

Can you believe that it's a Friday and I remembered to post on the blog!! We've been so busy this past month that I haven't caught up yet from the Christmas rush. But today I have lots to share with you.


Leslie has made a lot of fingerless mitts recently. She used Brown Sheep Wildfoote to make this first pair.

And then she used Crystal Palace Panda Wool. The pattern for these mitts is in the One Skein book.

And finally she made a pair for a Christmas gift...and this pattern was in the December 09 issue of Knit 'N Style. She's been a busy woman!

Jan made a hat for her granddaughter out of Cabin Fever Cotton Tweed.

Daniel made a lacy scarf for Amanda's birthday out of Malabrigo Silky Merino. It was his 1st attempt at adding beads. He's come a long way from a year ago when he learned to knit.

We've gotten in lots of new yarns this past week. I've kept both Melissa and Paula busy labeling and putting this wonderful yarn on the shelves. I can't wait to start working on models for you to see. We got in:

• Noro Kureyon – 100% wool that is self-striping. A great felting yarn.


• Noro Cash Iroha – a wonderful solid yarn that complements Noro Silk Garden (a silk/wool/cashmere blend)


• Knit One, Crochet Too Crock-o-Dye – a sock weight blend of superwash wool/silk/nylon that would make gorgeous scarves as well


• Knit One, Crochet Too Camelino – a worsted weight merino/camel blend in solid colors


• Knit One, Crochet Too Ty Dy Dots – 100% cotton that knits up like a summer tweed…coordinates with the Ty Dy yarn


• Berroco Origami – a summer yarn of acrylic/linen that knits up into a very light fabric


• Berroco Weekend – an aran weight yarn of acrylic/cotton that is washable and great for lots of different projects


• Lang Jawoll Magic – new sock yarn that gives a tye-dye effect…great for shawls as well


• Plus lots of restocks of your favorite yarns

Did you all see the gorgeous sunset we had last evening? It caused me to stop for a minute and pause to thank God for the beautiful world He has given us to live in. Thought I'd share the photo with you...although it doesn't really portray how beautiful it really was. It was another reminder to stop occasionally and take time to be thankful. Blessings to you all!
