Ooh, we’re going to share some of the samples we

Ooh, we’re going to share some of the samples we had made up by the best sample knitter in all the land, Pati, for our Harvest Fest palette!

For our LYS partners, we showcased a few of our bases, and today, we’re going to start with the fingering-weight bases we highlighted! All of the patterns used were @shannonsq ‘s, and all can be found via her Instagram links.

Slide 1: a Uni-Horn Magic Shawl in one of our newest yarn bases, Non-Super Wash Fingering. This is such a great non-superwash base, soft and bouncy and squishy and so much fun to knit with. We paired the gorgeous Dirty Bird with Rocky Mountain National Park for a bold and very autumnal look.

Slide 2: Using the same base (Non-Super Wash Fingering), we had the sweet Hazelwood Mitts made. I mean, check out how happy Shannon is to be wearing these fab mitts ;)

Slide 3: Flotus, anyone? This has been a perenially popular pattern, for good reasons: it’s really easy and fun to make; playing with color on it is so rewarding, and the crescent shape makes it really easy to wear. We went bold with it, by pairing Sexy Loving Lies with the variegated Halflings in our silky-soft Single Fingering yarn base.

Slide 4: Another Single Fingering pattern, this time a one-skein kerchief in Dusty Sophisticate, Vernonia is a blast to make and oh, so sweet to wear. The kerchief’y quality makes it a great little neckwarmer to tuck into your coat collar.

Today, we’re going to talk about our Fall Harves

Today, we’re going to talk about our Fall Harvest colorways. We had so much fun putting this palette together, mixing some of our favorite solids and variegateds in a sometimes-unexpected blend of moody and bright colors.

The first photo is all of our Fall Harvest solids. From top left, clockwise: Dirty Bird, Turquoise, Dusty Sophisticate, Not the Tealest, Crow, Flaming Locks of Auburn Hair, Oscar the Grouch, and Sexy Loving Lies.

The second photo is all of our Fall Harvest variegateds. From top left, clockwise: Squad Gourds, Rocky Mountain National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Indigenous People’s Day, Bold Mold, Wind Cave National Park, Halflings.

Next, we’ll be sharing some of the projects we had made up in these colorways, so you might want to clear some space in your knitting queue!

H appy Autumn Equinox, y’all! @mudpuppyknits ask

H appy Autumn Equinox, y’all! @mudpuppyknits asked a very interesting question this morning: do you consider today to be the start of Fall, the end of Summer, or just a random Thursday? We are firmly in team Fall, especially this year, but not only because we are ready for cooler days and longer nights. Inspired by Parks and Rec, we are leaning way into the whole Harvest Fest thing, with a fun take on a Fall color collection in some of our partner LYS’s (this is a photo of the full color collection, yum!!), a return to a favorite local-ish fiber festival, and a Harvest Fest of our very own! For the next week or so, we’ll be sharing Autumnal goodness, starting with today’s announcement of our Harvest Fest (save the date, friends, it’s going to be oodles of fun!)

Saturday, October 29th, from 1-4 pm, come to the Knitted Wit Studio for our Harvest Fest! We’ve got oodles of fab things planned, including but not limited to:

**Knitting-themed Tarot Card Readings
**A menstrual product drive
**Games, including ring toss, fishing for prizes, and more!

Will you join us? We are getting more excited the more things we plan, and can’t wait to celebrate Fall with y’all!

Do you know what a fabulous fall craft is? Weaving

Do you know what a fabulous fall craft is? Weaving! There are so many different ways to weave; you all know we love our rigid heddle looms (and classes - we have an Intro Class and a Next Steps Class coming up), but did you know that we also love small looms? There is something so awesome about working on a small scale, using scrap yarns, and leaning in to the meditative back and forth motion of weaving, with a loom you can put in your pocket!

Join us on October 1st for 2 mini-workshops. Both classes (plus the rigid heddle ones) are in the @craftemporium etsy shop, and both are perfect for beginners. In the morning, we’ll be learning how to use a pin loom, using the Zoom Loom from @schacht_spindle_company. Your class fee includes a loom of your very own, plus enough yarn for quite a few projects. In the afternoon, we’ll be learning how to use a small, bookmark/bracelet loom that our friend @aneedlerunsthroughit created for us. We’ll talk warp and weft, and work on a few easy techniques for weaving success.

Take one or both of these super fun small-loom weaving classes, and your fall will be filled with fabulous crafting that fits in your bag! Check out the link in my bio for more information.

It’s the perfect fiber art for cooler nights and the unique marriage of both more and less that autumn brings.

Temperature Project Tuesday!!! I’m getting back

Temperature Project Tuesday!!! I’m getting back into the groove with knitting in the morning before school. I have two days left in May and I got my temp records up to date. This is my second year doing this project and I definitely have some emotions tied up with it. I really enjoy capturing a moment of the year and saving it in this project row by row. How’s yours going?

When @life_is_cozy approached us at Stitches West

When @life_is_cozy approached us at Stitches West about collaborating on her @thesunandfog Fall release, we were over the moon! She’s such a lovely designer, and the whole Sun and the Fog collaboration has been so inspiring since it began, we knew we wanted to be a part of it. And wow, y’all! Ksenia blew our hand-knit socks off with her Alder Cardigan! Check out Ksenia’s post and the Sun and the Fog’s post for aaaalll of the details, but the tl;dr is:

Leaves is an amazing collection, snag it all! And then head to our website, linked in bio, to grab our DK yarn to make the gorgeous Alder Cardigan with one of the 9 colorways we put together. (If you want to twin with Ksenia, she used Black Magic.)
