close knit: the neighborhood yarn shop
I'm sure I've talked about these before, but they are just so pretty!
When I've just finished a big project or when life is just too crazy busy to pay attention to something complicated, I find myself drawn to a palate cleanser with some fabulous yarn. This Mini Fade shawl by Emily uses six shades of Jilly and would definitely fit the bill.
As I stare at the photo of the yarn, I'm putting together a color gradient in my head right now. Life is certainly busy, so why not! It will be such a special treat to choose some favorite colors and cast on.
Have you all jumped on the fade bandwagon? You can fade hats, shawls (so many shawls), sweaters (for kids and grown ups)...so many possibilities. Basically, you choose a range of yarns that all play nicely together and knit them into something that makes you happy.
This seems to work really nicely with hand-dyed yarns. Lucky you! We
have a bunch of gorgeous sets all ready for you from Spun Right Round.
We have some neons, some earthtones, some pastels, and some black and whites with a pop. These have been packaged up in sets of six or five, so you can choose what you need based on the size of your projects.
These will make great gifts (hint, hint) and they are going fast! Stop in and find your favorite fade!
