Spring Things!

We're breaking out the iced tea and wearing our flipflops in the shop this week - because it's SUNNY! Doesn't the sunshine just brighten your mood and make you want to knit a bikini? Okay, we'll not go that far - but instead, check out the bright colors of Euroflax sportweight linen we got in. We bought this to inspire you all to knit the Net Duffel Bag that's featured in the Spring Interweave Knits magazine. Designed by the Domino knitting queen, Vivian Hoxbro, this bag is a fun knit that expands to hold all your summer treats, from fruit to swimsuits and towels.

On the knitting book front, we now have plenty of copies of Cookie A's "Sock Innovations." Those of you who enjoy a challenging sock pattern will love this book. Cookie never fails to inspire with her twisting, turning designs. Another new book we recommend is Marianne Isager's "Japanese Inspired Knits." There's a sweater for each month and you'll be sure to find one to suit your fancy.

Come in and have a glass of iced tea with us and we'll help you find that perfect spring project!
