Our Thanksgiving break<\/a> continues, and the shop will be closed until we reopen on Tuesday, Nov. 28th. Til then, I have more show-and-tell to share! The theme of this bunch is lace.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Betty knit this “Stone Point”<\/a> poncho during Amy’s class here at the shop, her first-ever lace project! The yarn is Fibre Company Luma<\/a>, a dk weight blend of wool, cotton, linen, and silk.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sherri knit this beautiful blanket for her new daughter-in-law, Leah. The stitch pattern is good old feather and fan, a great introduction to lace knitting, and the yarn is a wide range of odds and ends from Sherri’s stash – this is a great way to use those bits and pieces and play with color along the way!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is a lace pattern on a somewhat smaller scale: Lois’s “Feather the Waves Socks,”<\/a> knit with Malabrigo Sock. Lois has found a favorite in this vibrant hand-dyed yarn; this is the third pair<\/a> she’s made<\/a> with Malabrigo Sock!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Margaretta is an especially prolific lace-knitter, and lately her projects are made with Brooklyn Tweed yarns. After knitting a “Your Ice Cream Shawl”<\/a> with Vale<\/a>, she came back for another; this is her second project with Vale, Jared Flood’s now-classic\u00a0“Girasole.”<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After completing that, Margaretta took on Jared Flood’s “Lucca,”<\/a> this time with Arbor<\/a>. The heavier gauge of this yarn made a more substantial fabric and a larger piece, turning a circular shawl into a spectacular blanket.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kellie has been knitting with Brooklyn Tweed, too – here she is modeling her “Hop Brook”<\/a> shawl, knit with Loft<\/a>. What a lovely match of yarn and pattern – a little rustic, a little delicate, and the light color lets the lace edging shine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We love seeing what folks make with our yarns – thank you so much for sharing your projects with us. Hope you’re enjoying the holiday weekend, and we look forward to seeing you on or after the 28th!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
