Both Joany and I are knitting the same scarf pattern right now, but using different colorways. Thought you might be interested in seeing 2 takes on the same scarf! Both using Amitola long repeat merino-silk with VIP solid.
I kind of like the black, stained glass colorway better (that's joany's), but i already had a store model showing a colorful yarn with black, so I couldnt repeat that! Instead i chose colors that are different than the other store models (maroon) I have already!

As usual, I'm dithering back and forth about which clearance yarns to put aside for myself! Homestead Hearty - gorgeous 100% highland wool bulky gauge for a sweater for a brother? Or one of the bags of Road To China Light to knit a luxurious sweater for a sister? And there's still enough of a couple colors of the uber lovely &Make Aran (alpaca/merino) for a sweater too! I'm obviously thinking about fall/winter knits, but I am also drooling over the idea of putting aside some of the clearance cotton/linens -Brighton Beach , Summer Solstice Gradient or select colors of Zooey to weave with!!
Fortunately, my sister rational sister Joan is here to temper my yarn hoarding! Stop in today, PLEASE, and buy these yarns before they end up in my stash!!!

Fall is almost here and winter is just around the corner, so we're busy knitting up lots of new accessories for inspiration!
These EASY mittens are a pattern from Ravelry that i chose as an example of a great first mitten for those of you new to knitting.
Yes, it's plain and simple but offers lots of options. If you want machine washability, its a perfect gauge for our Falkland Chunky and you could play with colors and stripes, or do a solid color and then embellish with embroidery, sashiko stitching or needle felting a design. (I've added some photos of plain felted gloves and nalbinded mittens i made a few years ago that I embellished with stitching or needle felting as examples of the creative fun you can have if you knit a solid color.)
Or, you could use Malabrigo's Mecha, if you prefer variegated colors.
The pair shown below in the first 2 pictures we actually knit it up using Falkland machine washable "worsted" and held a strand of Cumulus Alpaca Silk for some extra warmth (alpaca is 7 times more insulating than wool) and coziness and that gives a lovely heathery look and achieves the gauge.
So lots of options for this super simple pattern (Nolas Mittens on Ravelry).

While I was gone, Chris had a chance to learn this herringbone crochet stitch while making a bag using the Vegan Bag raffia yarn we stock by Katia. The pattern is 1 of 7 free bag patterns that Katia offers in support of this yarn!
And at the same time, Susan knit this pattern we have (Laura's Seed Stitch Bag) using the same yarn. (Chris didn't get a photo of Susan's bag, but said it looked great.)
So whether you feel like knitting or crocheting and want a quick 1 ball project to work on these last few weeks of summer before getting started on a new big project for fall/winter, stop by today and we'll show you the color options and pattern choices!
