Saturday, August 8, 2026

Good morning lovely knitters!  It looks like a pretty nice day to come on out for tax-free weekend and do some shopping!  We've got loads of news in this one, so I'm going to TRY to be as succinct as possible, but yuh know....

First, our Melange KAL is off to a great start!  You can start whenever you want!  Knit a Melange Scarf

Mad Melange

or our NEW Baby Melange

and get a finished picture added to Ravelry before October 1st and we'll send you any of our patterns for FREE!  And all of those patterns above come with the kits (or Mad Ball).  What could be more fun?  Well, making a Melange is actually the real fun!  Such a fun, easy, entertaining knit - whichever one your choose!!

We got NEW colors of Juniper Moon Farm Beatrix!  And to make space, gorgeous Poema Alpaca had to make its way to the sale bin!

We also got our NEW Making Tracks lite online!

Only about one week left to score your Colorful Cuddles blanket before this kit disappears!   Get 10% off and a FREE issue of Noro Magazine 26 until mid-August!

AND we got a bunch of NEW classes online for fall!  Sign-up soon and get it on your calendar so that you don't miss out!

And shockingly, I took a few things out so as to not overwhelm you, but I'll be in touch soon with more fun yarny news!  I hope to see you today!

You can find us on Facebook and Instagram, you can also now find us on Bluesky!  So, if you have already fled the others, follow us there!  We'd love to see you!
