LET THE COLOR KNITTING BEGIN

We LOVE the folks at DALE OF NORWAY. Not only were they really helpful at the TNNA Show, but they shipped IMMEDIATELY!!!! We are now fully stocked with BABY ULL, a 4 ply washable wool in fabulous colors, NEW PATTERN BOOKS, and (drum roll please) HEILO. Heilo is THE Fair Isle yarn. 4 ply, pure wool, can stand up to all sorts of stranding. So bring it on. And if you need help, check out the VOGUE ULTIMATE KNITTING REFERENCE, which came in from Sterling Publishers. There is a whole section on Color Knitting.

Better with classes? Can you wait until Sunday, July 30? Lynne will be teaching "On the Other Hand" in our Sunday Salon. And on the following Sunday morning she will teach "Two Hands, Two Colors." This will get you ready for the process of Fair Isle knitting by showing how to work two colors using both hands!
