There is still time:

Are you on a mission for a few more quality presents?
A hat is the answer. There is always time for a hat.
This is an exclusive pattern, designed by Chiaki, shown in Andean Prime Alpaca.
We have the pattern, the yarn and the needles available.

Or you could knit up a scarf. This is the great last minuted knitted gift; luxurious and rich. This pattern is in Pam Allen's book Scarf Style. We have the velvety yarn "Touch Me" in a wide range of colors.

Come on in, and infuse some peace into an insaine rushed schedule.

Lessons


Sue had a lesson with two girls. (Here, they are doing the long tail cast-on, of course.) They made the most wonderful noises. There were squeals of excitement, and jokes shared. They all had a lot of fun.


Then, in came a hat with one missing twist in a cable. We did a lesson in pulling cables out.
I started to take lots of pictures, and make a tutorial. But, others have gone before me, and done WONDERFUL ones. I'll point you to Yarn Harlot's example.
So, I focused on the lesson rather than on the photography. And I never took an "after" (sorry)We had a good time, and the hat left fixed, and the repair was imperceptible.

So, if you are working on a project, and you hit a road block, bring it in before your rip the whole thing back. There just may be a solution.

Young or young-at-heart, problems or just new skills, call us and book a private lesson. We'll take your knitting to the next level.
