Game Changer

This is Beth’s favourite hat. It’s called the Squish Me Cap (pattern purchased on Ravelry). Beth is going to reknit it with Malabrigo Washted.

She started last night and knit while watching a movie. I was sleeping and she didn’t wake me to fix stitches so that’s a good thing. 😀 This morning she told me that it is going to be too small and she needs to knit on one size bigger needle. She’s ripped it out and is starting again.

I received an SOS call. Somehow the ball ended up a mess after she ripped out. She was going to try and get the mess sorted but it defeated her. Dad brought Lynn and I lunch and then he took a new skein of Washted to Beth. I would get mad at her but she worked Tuesday and yesterday packing boxes for me so I’ll give her another skein of yarn.

We’ve been packing boxes - thank you to everyone who has ordered. This was yesterday afternoons pick up. Mr. UPS came twice because we had so many.

This was part of today’s pick up. We love packing boxes so please keep ordering 😜.

A few customers have taken advantage of our Boxing Week sale by purchasing Dream State to knit Andrea Mowry’s Traveler Shawl (Pattern purchased on Ravelry). You will need 7 skeins and with the discounts you will save over $60 this week.

Here is mine in Dyed in the Wool. Dream State will make the shawl a bit heavier and squishier and a bit bigger. Lynn and I restocked the Dream State wall and there are so many colours that I want to knit with. I totally forgot to take a picture of the wall. 

Just before I hit Publish I checked Ravelry to see if there were any new patterns. While looking I saw mention of another game changing technique. 
Oh My Gosh!!!! No more underarm holes. I wish I had seen this before I knit the sleeves on my Alpine Bloom. 

No one in my house wants to cook so it’s Swiss Chalet and then an evening of knitting.
