Kreations by Kristi / Informal KAL
Thursday 10 May, 2012
We've been gradually putting up some lovely designs as created by Kristi (of Kreations by Kristi), both in kit form and as patterns (with great bead options to allow you to create your own kit, if you so choose).

So far we have four designs on the website, and more coming. If you would like, just put "Kristi" in the Search engine and you will see them all. Some are in kit form, some are pattern only (though offering great bead gifts as well so you can create-your-own-kit).

You can find Take Flight, in pattern and in kit forms, and Leaves Washed Ashore, as a pattern. We also just put up Kara's Shawl and Spring Is In The Air. Gorgeous!

Now, Kristi's patterns are beautiful but they are a bit more complex than some knitters are used to. So our marvelous Cindersall who runs our Ravelry forum just started a a new support thread as an informal Knit Along (KAL) for these beauties.

She writes: "These are true lace designs, with patterning on both wrong and right side rows, but still well within the range of an intermediate knitter. We are starting an informal KAL for those of you who would like some helpful hints, some hand holding, and lots of applause as you progress. It will be a great way to learn a new skill, (if you’ve never done right and wrong side patterning), or just a fun place to chat about the projects.

So come join in the fun on our Ravelry group. It is very satisfying to have other knitters to talk to and to ask questions of. After all, we do understand each other, don't we?

And keep watching the What's New section for more and more of these designs and kits -- they are very rewarding, perfect for warm weather knitting and for throwing over one's shoulders for that special touch of elegance.

The Spirit of Guernsey KAL
Friday 20 April, 2012
We are sponsoring a wonderful new Knit ALong (KAL) with The Unique Sheep!

The Spirit of Guernsey KAL has you making a mystery lace knitting shawl. Janine le Cras, the amazing designer, lives on Guernsey and often takes inspiration from her surroundings. With this KAL we will all be transported to her home and what she finds so inspiring about it!

It will be starting Mid-July -- a wonderful spot of color!

Great fun!

Quite Continental!
Tuesday 13 March, 2012
"Quite Continental" is a wonderful new design by Bev of Boo Knits.

We worked with Bev quite extensively to bring this lovely pattern into being, and just put up the pattern and a few kits.

We are so very pleased!

This shawl is simply stunning -- and let me also quote Cindersall, on our Ravelry Forum, "The thing I love about it is that it’s comfortable to wear, and drapes beautifully. Just tie it in the front and voila…instant glamour. Perfect with a white blouse and black slacks."

Our Ravelry forum is also set up with a special support thread for this design. So if you run into any snags (figuratively speaking) you will have lots of help unraveling it.

Fun!

New KAL!
Wednesday 08 February, 2012
We found an absolutely stunning design, by Melissa Lemmon and fell in love.

With her permission, we are working on offering her Nouveau Beaded Capelet as a Knit Along project. This KAL is going to be run via our Ravelry forum with the help of Cindersall, our moderator and lace-knitter-extraordinaire, and Melissa herself.

We have also set up some wonderful kits for the Nouveau Beaded Capelet, complete with pattern, yarn and all the necessary beads.

Or if you'd like to create-your-own-kit and need a bit of help, just email us and we'll work with you on it.

This should be tremendous fun!

Art Yarns Bling!
Wednesday 25 January, 2012
This is the perfect time of year for some drop-dead gorgeous yarns, full of bling, light, and glory! We are delighted to be able to add some much needed color to our winter with Art Yarn's Every Which Way Shawl kits.

Each kit contains two part-skeins of Beaded Silk Light in two colors and one small skein of Cashmere one-ply. These are super-luxury yarns and a marvelous opportunity to try them out. The colors are glorious, the texture sublime, and the whole makes for a most lovely shawl to grace your shoulders, any time of year.

What a wonderful chance to play with some truly amazing yarns.

Beautiful! Big smiles here.

New!
Saturday 07 January, 2012
Well, we are feeling a bit like Old Mother Hubbard. After our December Clearance Sale, the cupboards are a bit bare. We have more wonderful yarn on its way, but always time and space interferes and makes it all take longer than we'd really like.

In the meantime we do have some wonderful new patterns that we found very intriguing and a couple of new kits as well. And we are gradually filling up those shelves again.

Take a look at the marvelous new kits for Three Quarter Time Beaded Shawl in Ling -- stunning colorways in a wonderful yarn, gorgeous pattern plus beads! What could be better?

And we have some wonderful new shawl patterns and kits to make beaded shawls designed by Boo Knits that we think you will find most unique and fun to make.

And from Tori, a great simple shawl design that is a wonderful "break" type knit, and really lovely. We only have one kit up so far -- more coming too -- but we think her Vixen Shawl is a wonderful way to "play" with great yarns. All that is needed is one skein of most fingering weight yarns -- a perfect chance to try out new and luxurious ones.

We have some other great new things -- don't miss our new fun new scarf patterns, perfect for defeating Old Man Winter. Check out our "What's New" section and have a lovely time browsing....
