Good morning lovely knitters!! And HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I don't know about you guys, but I was pretty happy to kick 2025 right out of the door! Buhbye and good riddance! I hope you all have a fantastic new year, filled with love, calm and YARN! :)
This morning, we released a BRAND NEW, SUPER COZY sweater kit! I have an obsession lately - and it is this - creating gorgeous color gradients with super soft mohairs on a nice palette of creamy wool! The first to reveal itself? The Big Gay Sweater!
The Big Gay Sweater is one of the coziest, cheer-giving knits you could imagine! It is a super fast and easy knit and the color changes make you just want to keep going and going! And see, you can have pride even when it is FREEZING! AND see rainbows when it isn’t even close to rainbow weather! Find the kits here!
We also have lots of classes starting up - Sweater Club starts NEXT Sunday - 1/11 - so don't delay! You can choose any sweater you want - maybe your first sweater? Or a challenge sweater? We also have NEW sessions of Learn to Knit and Learn to Crochet if the new year is the time you like to expand your skills!
And just to mention - I feel like a social media transition might be coming along, so though you can still 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!
Alright - it is selfish knitting season, and we can't wait to see you all for the warmy things your little paws are yearning for!
