I am obsessed with DK right now and when I saw the tweed I knew that we had to have it.

New bags from Atenti. These should make it in time for the Frolic.

The Atenti Blossom Blue Backsac - A robust texture cotton linen blend printed with a bold floral watercolor design. The Atenti backpack is a knitter’s delight: a combination of the Hope basket and a Tall caddy set into an incredible functional backpack. Double adjustable ultra-suede straps allow the backpack to be worn as a backpack, a shoulder bag or on the wrist while knitting on the go. A combination of a loop and an internal magnetic, allows the correct amount of closure. Roomy with an oval base 11” x 5.5” and a height of 13” and fully lined in water resistant taffeta. Inside are a zippered pocket and a divided pocket with a cell phone slot.

The Atenti Blossom Grey Hope Basket - A robust texture cotton linen blend printed with a bold floral watercolor design. A roomy stand-alone project bag. Top rolls down for easy access. Wide opening and two handles. Fully lined in water our light tan water repellent taffeta. Inside are three pockets. 12" tall x 8" wide x 8" deep

The Atenti Blossom Grey Bonnie - A robust texture cotton linen blend printed with a bold floral watercolor design. This TWA airline inspired bag is built like our overnighter, with double straps, four metal feet, a 24" zippered opening and a full water resistant lining. Inside are a zippered pocket and a divided pocket with a cell phone slot. 14” wide x 13” tall x 7 deep.

If you know our Mini-skein Packs, you know how much we love gradients and all the possibilities of colors morphing into one another. We’ve curated some favorites of our freshest colorways into fading trios of full-size skeins, chosen to each blend beautifully into the next, on our Mary Ann sock base. Perfect for fading shawls and garments, or for coordinating smaller projects in a color family.  

The possibilities are innumerable.

Each Trio is comprised of three skeins of Mary Ann sock. 

1425 yards, 12 oz. total (475 per 4-oz skein); 85% superwash merino/15% nylon; fingering weight

This kit will be amazing for Stephen West's new Sea Swell Shawl.

I set aside my Hipster and went back to my Throwback. Wannietta visited today and her cardigan is almost finished. Lynn's is blocking and Sarah has been finished for a long time. It is not going to be a good look at the Frolic if I'm not wearing mine.

LYS Day was a huge success in 2018 and it is happening again in 2019.
Saturday April 20, 2019.

Local Yarn Store Day is a brick and mortar shop appreciation day created by the TNNA Yarn Group. Launched in 2018, the second annual Local Yarn Store Day will take place on April 27 and is designed to show support for small businesses while bringing together a unique community of knitters, crocheters, weavers and spinners to drive awareness and celebrate the craft. Vendors and retailers alike are coming together to showcase the benefits of locally owned yarn stores through an array of special products, classes and more!

We are moving the date of our LYS Day because it conflicts with the Knitters Frolic. In the next few days I am going to start sharing details about LYS Day. Special yarns. Deals. Don't miss out on a fun day.
