Yummy hand spun yarns for fall

Fall is upon us and winter is around the corner.  Time to work on those warm winter knits.  Looking for something different to knit this winter?  Have you ever knit with hand spun?  NO?!  You are missing out!  Hand spun is a fun and unique knit.  I have had the pleasure of knitting my own hand spun yarns and was extremely pleased with the final result.  Below is my favorite knit with my hand spun.  The pattern is the Herringbone Neck Warmer.   This is a free pattern.  I have made several of these they make fantastic gifts for both men and women.

 Want to try knitting with hand spun?  Stop in the shop today to pick up one of our yummy skeins of hand spun yarns from Ewe and Yoors!  Here are some of our favorites for fall.

Project Wednesday

So I have a group of girls I meet with every Wednesday to knit.  Since Wednesday is knitting day, I figured I would use Wednesdays here to share some fun knitting projects.  I'll be sharing things I have on the needles as well as past knits, patterns we like and maybe some projects my group are working on.

Fall is here!  That means break out those sweaters you knit last year to show them off and finish the one you started!  I have been working for some time on the Pinwheel Sweater.  Not that I am a slow knitter, I just have been so busy the knitting time is getting less and less.  This is such a fun knit.  You start in the middle of the sweater and work out.  It does get a little tedious once you get to those outer rows as there are A LOT of stitches.

 I am using Noro Transitions for the body and cuff and a Berroco Bulk for the sleeves.  As you can see it is close to being done!  I just need to finish the sleeve and enjoy it this fall.

What are you working on?  Feel free to share your projects past and present on our Facebook page.

I finally took the dive and started a Pinterest account!  Not 100% sure what it is yet but I'm working on it :-)!  I hope to use this space to share some of my favorite items on Etsy as well as new items that we add to our shop.  So if you are on Pinterest swing by and follow us.
