Happy December and Quick Projects

I am sure you have had a busy weekend and week. 

I was busy in the shop, found time to do some Christmas cookie baking, time to knit and time to play with my spinning wheel and drop spindle.

Hope you noticed in out newsletter that we will be having 

drop spindle workshops in the new year. 

Also will be carrying some fibres for spinning and the drop spindle.

Let us know if you are interested in being part of our drop spindle workshops.

Hope you are - it is relaxing, easy and makes you feel so proud of what you have created!

Here are a few quick projects that can easily be done for  holiday gift giving.

Everyone Loves Sock Monkeys!
In these two books you will find lots of projects for all of your friends (or even yourself )
who love sock monkeys.

KnitCol
KnitCol is so colourful and delightful. 
It is a dk weight yarn - so the possibilities are limitless for using this yarn.
Because the yarn forms a pattern as you knit - you want to keep knitting and knitting to see the end results.

One ball of KnitCol made this cute hat!

Passion - the name of the yarn - not the cute sheep!

Passion is made by the same company as Marble Chunky 

- the yarn that you all have all used and love.

Again - one ball makes this fashionable cowl using the linen stitch.
It also looks great knit in to a sweater, scarf or what ever you wish.

More colours should be arriving any day.

Be creative with your knitting and crocheting!
