Ravelry is an online community for knitters, crocheters and other fiber fans. A combination of a social networking site, a place to share information about patterns and yarn, a forum and a place to keep records about your stash, your needle collection, your current projects and more, it has quickly become the must-join site and every knitter's favorite time black hole.
Raverly allows knitters to connect into groups organized around geographic location, hobbies other than knitting, charity giving, goals such as knitting a sweater each month, even groups surrounding a favorite yarn, favorite stitch or crafters who work while on public transportation. You can see what projects other people are making (with links to patterns that are free), what kinds of yarns are most popular (on needles or in stashes)and people's favorite patterns and finished objects. Sign up for a free invitation here! |
Based on Elizabeth Zimmerman’s February Baby Sweater, this adult version is bound to be a favorite too. Several of us at the shop have started our sweater to get ready for fall. Knit in one piece top down, it is a great introduction to a basic gull stitch lace pattern and garment construction. Stop by the shop and see Darilee’s sweater in progress and pick
yarn out for yours. *Free* One Row Buttonhole Clinic:
Wednesday July 23 5:30pm-6:30pm.
Come build your knitting skills. Watch and practice as Lucy Neatby demonstrates on her DVD a professional looking buttonhole. Homework: Begin a swatch working with worsted weight yarn, cast on 12 sts and work 8 rows of stockinette stitch, do not bind off. | | |
