A Post By Rebecca


Hello, my name is Rebecca.

This week has been really busy! We have just gotten in a new yarn from Manos, called Maxima. Coming in with 10 different variegated colors; we have also gotten in more Manos Silk Blend, with 5 more colors, including black.

A shipment also came in from Dye-Version, with a hand dyed Bamboo Sport yarn called Florida Sunshine. And for all those sock lovers out there, we have 7 more balls of hand dyed sock yarn as well.

Apart from the yarn, we also held the Culture Days here at the Kniterary. We had Tara; the owner of Soul Xpression come in and teach people how to do beading, and Kim, the owner of Penny Heaven come in to show people how to make pennys, a craft from the 1800s.

Be sure to look for us in the next issue of Snap'd!

Tune in next week,

Rebecca

Knitting one, Wearing another

I am knitting Baktus with 2 skeins of Manos Serena. This sumptuous alpaca/pima cotton yarn is so soft and pleasing to knit with! The scarf is about 1/2 done now. I am striping two rows of blue and 2 rows of beige. Feels and looks like the desert and the sky!

I am wearing the Cascade Ultra Pima Cotton Summer Striped Scarf from the newest Vogue magazine. Just perfect for a cooler spring day like today!
Come in and check them out!
