Sale of the Week

Zauberball (magic ball in English) is a yarn lover's delight. Fine, soft wool in a softly spun single changes colors gradually as you go. In monochromatic stripes or vivid rainbows of color, Zauberball adds some magic to your stitching. Use it for wonderfully, stripy socks or create glorious lace with it. It also lends itself wonderfully to crocheted motifs.

Zauberball is 15% off through February 6.

Cassidy Knitalong Starts Sunday



This Sunday, January 30, at 5 pm we launch our second shop knitalong. We loved the enthusiasm that the first knitalong generated and really enjoyed seeing all the finished sweaters. This time around we are kicking things up a notch with a fantastic hoodie cardigan with slim cables. This is a modern, stylish take on a traditional sweater.



Please join us on Sunday and we can cast on together and start this next great knitalong!
