Here is the Casapinka LYS Day pattern for 2024. I will be putting together kits and they will be available to preorder on the website. Here are the first kits with more coming all week.
This is the LYS Day Cowl. It requires 2 skeins of fingering weight yard and is simple. I used two 400 yard skeins of fingering and this version uses about 2/3 of a skein of each color but directions will be included to use it all (just continue on with the repeats.) I used one variegated and one solid color.
Anyone who purchases 2 skeins of fingering weight yarn on Saturday and everyone who purchases a kit will receive a download code for the pattern. The pattern must be downloaded on Saturday April 27th or Sunday April 28th. If you don’t download that pattern on those dates then it becomes a paid pattern.
I am going to ask for everyone’s patience for the near future. Last night my dad had a stroke. He is in Hamilton General and they are taking amazing care of him. We don’t know what the future holds and I don’t know what I will be needed to do for his care. He has been moved to the Stroke unit and they start therapy tomorrow. We are still going ahead with LYS Day. I was supposed to go to Chicago next week to see the fall yarns. I am cancelling the trip but I am not sure what days we will be open. Everything is up in the air right now. Please keep reading the blog and I will provide updates.
I am sorry to hear about your dad and will be thinking of you. My father had a stroke a few years ago, and I remember the anxiety and uncertainty of those early days. It sounds as if your dad is receiving excellent care!
