Have you ever wondered how many shades of red Crayola crayons there are?  We did, and learned that Crayola makes 23 shades of red crayons.  Does a brand new box of crayons make your fingers tingle, creativity flow?  Just the way you feel when you are surrounded by gorgeous yarns of many colors and textures?  There is really NOTHING like finding just the right color to fit your project. 

Working together with Lobster Pot Yarns we found this gorgeous "Boiled Lobster" red and look what happened!  Subtle, gentle color and twisted rib.  Hats for every size, with a beautiful shape and drape.  The perfect hat in the perfect color.  

Take a look at some of our other shades of red; #75, #105, #98, and #77.

"Creativity is contagious, pass it on" - Albert Einstein

Winter is a wonderful time to really sink your teeth into a project. Stretch your mind. Look at yarn in a new way. Learn more about textures. Try soft merinos, rugged hand spuns, cashmere's or alpaca. Learn what's enough and when to add more. Thick yarn or thin? Have a blast with colors. Try one new idea and you will be on your way to endless variations. Piles of projects all over. Brain candy. 

As Einstein said, "Creativity is contagious."

The garlic has been planted.  The garden has been put to bed and is sleeping under the first snow.  

A beautiful snow of large flakes, each so large that we can see different patterns floating in front of our windows.  Now is the season to appreciate a warm room, a sip of your favorite drink and the time to ponder the many colors, textures and designs that beckon in this wonderful season for knitting.

Our newest pattern, Plum Island Big Baby, #135 has everything you'll need to hold your knitting attention all season long.  Great yarn, great pattern repeat and great warmth when you finish.  

What could be cozier than snuggling under this graceful blanket?  A perfect pattern to knit while watching snow flakes fall.  In deep rich fall/winter colors or soft muted colors in hopes of spring.
