Socks, Hearts and Angels

I have finally posted the classes currently planned for this spring on the Kniterary website so head on over and have a look a what is coming up.



Among the classes is a heart embellishing class that is being offered by Tara of Soul Xpressions. All you have to do is knit 3 small hearts and stuff them then bring them with you on February 5th for embellishing. The class and embellishing kit (enough for 3 hearts) is $15.



The pattern I used was Folk Hearts by Frankie Brown that is available free on line. One ball of Mirasol Sampa makes about 6 hearts and is $6.99 a ball. It could be a fun project to do with a child!

The Pull up Your Socks KAL continues with several people coming in to show me their progress. Sharon and Geri were in with a finished sock each.




I have also finished the final black sock.....FINALLY....Black sock weight is not my favorite to knit in but I love wearing them!

Just in to the shop is Debbie Bliss Angel..... A stunningly beautiful mohair, silk blend that knits up very light and feathery.




You have to see it in real life to really appreciate it!!!! There is a book with great patterns and the new Debbie Bliss Magazine (coming out soon) will have some patterns using Angel as well.
Remember that there are still 2 ongoing drop ins that you may join in at any time! Wednesdays 1- 3 and Thursdays 7 - 9.
