Mostly Show and Tell

The Budding Apple Knit-a-long is starting to wind down. Check out Kathy L's shawl, made with Peace Love & Yarn's Silk Noile yarn:
So gorgeous!

So, time to introduce the new knit-a-long! We are doing a Christmas-in-July Knit-a-Long and making a Christmas stocking:
A free Cascade pattern (get it here) , this is made with 4 or up to 10 colors of Cascade 220. It has some stranding in it so if you are unfamiliar with that, I'll be at the knit a longs to help with it! First KAL meet up will be this Saturday, July 2 and will go throughout the month. I'll also start a thread on the Ravelry group. I was telling some customers about it this past Saturday and several have already decided to tackle this one!

Here are the colors I'm going to do:
Non-traditional, yes... but totally my colors, no?

Linda's scarf:


Florence's scarf:
Both made with Encore worsted and colorspun. They loved the class! Another Weaving 101 class is scheduled for July.... join us! No experience needed!
