The Fall/Winter 2015 issue of knit.purl is here!

Fall knitting magazines seem to be all about sweaters, and this one is no exception.

It features a collection of patterns inspired by menswear, including a colorwork yoke cardigan knit in Berroco Ultra Alpaca.

I spotted a sweater in Baa Ram Ewe’s newest yarn, Dovestone DK, coming to the shop this fall.

Look for knit.purl on the teacart, surrounded by all manner of new publications. Come by the shop seeking Fall knitting inspiration, we hope you find it here!

Another new magazine has found its way to the shop, with even more warm-weather knitting inspiration! Here’s a peek inside the Spring/Summer 2015 issue of knit.purl.

Knit.purl is an Interweave publication focused on simplicity and sophistication in handknitting.

It was once known as knit.wear, and though the name has changed, the content is much the same: thoughtful, wearable, modern knits, and tutorials to help make them.

I spotted an asymmetric tank knit in Fibre Company Savannah in this collection of wave-inspired garments. Savannah is a perfect yarn for Spring and Summer projects, a well-balanced blend of plant and animal fibers both light and elastic, and Quenna Lee’s “Meandering Top” is a great use for it.

Come by the shop to plan your next project and browse the latest periodicals and publications. We hope you find inspiration here!

We’ve been getting so many new magazines this month, I can hardly keep up!

First up, Knitscene, always a hot commodity here at the shop. This issue has lots of familiar yarns inside, from Shibui Cima to Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift.
