Vignette Cardigan
This coming Saturday December 29th knitters from the River City Knitting Guild will be meeting to knit and enjoy an afternoon of good company at the South East branch of the Jacksonville Library. The knitters will be there from 10 in the morning till about 1ish and there will be signs directing to the knit along room.

Everyone will be working on the Vignette Cardigan pattern from Knitty but you are welcome to bring whatever project you are currently working on. If you want to make your very own Vignette Cardigan we would recommend a nice worsted or aran weight yarn such as Cascade 220, Shepherd's Wool, Zara Plus, Berroco Weekend, or Tahki Soft Cotton.

You can find directions to the S.E. branch library here.

And you can check out the great pattern by Amy Herzog at Knitty just search for "Vignette Cardigan".

New Products!

There are a few new products that have just arrived in the shop to tell you about.

Plymouth Joy Rainbow is a super easy to make self ruffling scarf yarn that's all the craze right now. Here's a easy to follow video of how to knit with it. Just knit into the edge and watch the yarn do all the work. After looking at the color card they have online I would have to say that the colors are much nicer in person.

Lavishea lotion bars, designed with all natural products for knitters and needleworkers to keep your hands happy and soft without getting on your work. There are great scents like "The Yarn Bar", "Jasmine Vanilla", and "Citrus Basil".

Freia Ombre Sport and Freia Ombre Silk Sport are absolutely gorgeous new hand dyed sport weight yarns. Very soft and squishy with long changing colors in each generous 200+ yard ball. The All-American (Colorado sheep, hand-dyed in California) Ombre Sport is 100% wool and measures in at 217 yards per ball. The refined Ombre Silk Sport is 70% Wool and 30% Silk each 50 gram ball is 231 yards.

Baah! La Jolla is a vibrant, pretty new hand-dyed sock yarn we are carrying. The 100% superwash merino wool in this yarn is very soft and is lovely when knit up.

Fyberspates Scruptious Sport 4 Ply has a lovely squishy and soft hand. It's made of 55% superwash merino wool and 45% silk and put up in large 100g, 399 yard, hanks. Perfect for a special project.

Tahki Yarns Soft Cotton is a newly released yarn by Tahki Stacy Charles. It is a worsted weight cotton and it is appropriately named it is soft.

Cascade Heritage Sock and Cascade Heritage Silk Sock are very affordable sock yarns we now stock. Heritage Sock is 75% superwash wool and 25% nylon is super soft with a very nice twist. And Heritage Silk Sock is 85% superwash merino wool and 15% silk.

In Needlepoint we have new Needle Crossing designs featuring fun summer beach motifs. From Rebecca Wood designs we have new ornaments including a precious nativity set. Mindy designs square kits which include Baroque Silks for a dreamy stitching experience. We're also expecting a new needlepoint trunk show in the beginning of June so watch out for that.

In Cross Stich we have just received a new package of charts from Victoria's Sampler. And JABCO's new pincushions might be the cutest thing I've seen in a while, I just had to make up a model for the shop.

Lots of Great New Yarns

9/9/2011

We have had a variety of all new yarns arrive in the shop in the last few weeks. From Berroco we have big and beautiful tweed Blackstone Tweed Chunky, the super soft lofty Voyage, and the lush plush accent yarn Nanuk, we also have all of the newest Berroco pattern books 310-315 and Norah Gaughan Vol. 9. From Knit One Crochet Too we have the soft bamboo nylon sock yarn Pediwick, and the vibrant lacey mohair Ty-Dy Superkid. From Jojoland we have a brand new smooshy superwash chunky yarn with wonderful colors called Fantasia.

One of the most exciting new trends in yarn this year is the tape or net yarn. With these types of yarn you knit into one edge of the net and produce magnificent ruffles that will be sure to turn heads everywhere you go. The beauty of these yarns is that you can make a terrific scarf for yourself (or someone special) in just a few hours, using only the knit stitch, and it only takes one skein of yarn to make a 54" long scarf. From Trendsetter Yarns we have the delicious ruffled Flamenco yarn. And from Filatura Di Crosa we have the beautiful frothy Moda. A scarf made out of one of these would make the perfect present for someone who likes to dress up and go out for a night on the town.
