Store KAL

Don't forget about our store KAL. There is still time to get the shawl knit. We are making Xanthe (pattern purchased on Ravelry) by Ambah O'Brien.

Xanthe Wrap is an invitation to play. Choose a trio of colours to express your style, the variations are endless; stripe two neutrals and add a lace colour pop, or keep it neutral for a classic look. Use your wildest speckle yarn striped with a solid and co-ordinating lace colour for something as fun to knit as it is to wear. The stretches of garter stitch make this a perfect project for travel or mindless knitting while beautiful lace keeps it interesting.  
Xanthe is knit on the bias which results in a rhomboid shape; it is easy to wear and will fast become a wardrobe staple. 
Pattern includes fully written instructions accompanied by a chart for the lace section.
Prizes
-Ambah has made a generous offer. Anyone who finishes before May 31 and posts a picture of their finished shawl in our Ravelry group will receive a coupon code for $6.50 to be used towards one of her patterns.

-If you purchase your yarn in the store (or online) please keep your receipt. Bring the finished shawl into the store with the receipt (or email me pictures of the shawl). We’ll share the pictures on the blog and give you a coupon for 15% off of a future purchase in the store.

I'm almost ready to start the last lace section. It was a beautiful day to be outside.


Our garden is taking shape. Flowers are starting to bloom which makes us happy.

Survivor is taping and it's time to go watch.
