close knit: the neighborhood yarn shop
The Summer 2019 Knitscene is fun! Can I show you some of the things that caught my eye?
These hat and socks look like great basics on their own, but the visible mending look adds a little something extra to this set.
My 90's teenage self is jonesing for this lace tube/tank top.
Summer is a great time to knit wraps and shawls...play with some color and texture and interesting stitches on a not-sweater-sized project.
This cute biased top is so springy and cute, too!
And a cotton tote bag is never a bad idea for summer.
We love to knit all summer long! What do you all like to knit in the warmer months?
The newest Knitscene has some cool and modern patterns! I'm also loving the models and wacky photo shoots. Let's take a look.
See anything that inspires you?
Pretty stuff in the new Knitscene!
A few great articles, too, I especially love the slow fashion movement.
Come by and take a peek at the mag. We will need to knit for cold weather eventually!
Check out the cute summer tops in the newest Knitscene! Maybe, if we all knit summer garments, it will start to get warm. Let's try.
The fall issue of Knitscene is out, and it is chock full of cute cardigans with lovely details. Let's take a look!
This one has thumb holes on those extra long cuffs!
I also loved the shawl on the cover, and these cute little mitts.
I remember reading somewhere that one should always be knitting or sewing for the next season. Can we start knitting for fall now? Always?
The fall issue of Knitscene has some cute stuff! I know it's July. Bear with me. The Barton Cowl on the cover looks like fun. It's knit up with light fingering yarn, but I think any fabulous sock yarn would be fun. Think of the color combinations.
Classic black, white, and grey look so good together in the Suzuri Hat, Hanshi Wrap, Sumi Sweater, and Fude Tee.
The big, relaxed fit on those pullovers looks so appealing. Perfect layers for the fall.
The Warren Cowl (above) works up in three earthy shades of Cascade Nevado. If you've never tried brioche stitch before, this would be a great place to start. This Parks Wrap is really classy, yes? Worked up in a light sport weight yarn, it would be a lovely gift.
The Alice Hoodie reminds me a bit of the wildly popular Central Park Hoodie from way back when. That garter stitch panel up the back is unusual and cool on a cabled hoodie
Since we have lots of Blue Sky Bulky in the shop, you can make this Amelia Hat in a jiffy. Plus, pom pom.
We have already discussed this gorgeous gansey-style pullover designed with flyWHEEL. The Troposphere Sweater is in my queue and waiting.
Summer seems to be upon us, but we can just keep knitting.
