Einstein Coat!

Don't worry, I have plenty of my own knitting projects to share, I just haven't photographed any lately!  Instead, I would love to show off the new Einstein Coat that Shelly knit for the shop.  Isn't it lovely?


We have an Einstein Coat class coming up in a couple of weeks if you are interested.  This garter stitch coat from Sally Melville's book, The Knit Stitch, is a wonderful beginner's first sweater project or a relaxing knit for more advanced knitter.  


The yarn she used is Arucania Nature Wool Chunky.  Check out all of the gorgeous colors in this chunky wool yarn!  Some are kettle-dyed, and the others are handpainted, so any you choose would have a great color variation in the coat.  This yarn is wonderful for any chunky sweater, as well as cozy winter accessories and home accents. 

Einstein Coat class:
Wednesday, January 28, 4:30 to 6:30
OR Thursday, January 29, 1 to 3
OR Saturday, January 24, 1 to 3
$15 plus supplies

Breakwall

Hey folks!  Sorry I've left this blog for so long.  Thanks to all those who still check it anyway!  

I may not have been blogging, but I HAVE been knitting.  I just finished this sweater last week:



It's knit in two pieces, a left half and right half, from cuff to center.  Seams at center front, center back, and side/under sleeve, leaving slits at side hems and front neck.  The main color is knit in garter stitch, with the contrast color in stockinette.  I hope to have the pattern for Breakwall sized and ready soon!
