Announcing: Knitting Olympics Photo Opp

Can you believe how quickly the last two weeks have flown by? If you were participating in the Knitting Olympics (cast on a challenging project with the opening ceremonies and knit your way through the competition), be sure to bring your completed projects this week and we will post a picture to the blog!

As a side note, we will be posting pictures from Northern House where they featured qiviut, or muskox yarn, and gorgeous pieces with fine detail. Qiviut is known for its soft texture, extreme warmth and rarity as it used to be gathered by hand from bushes.

This week, the Knit 1s are taking up the challenge of learning a basic cable. We will be working on a simple cable pattern in an 8x8 square. We will have some cable needles available for sale if you don't have one. Please bring 4.5 mm needles and worsted weight yarn.

Take 2s will have open knitting this week.

Go for gold!

Yarn over and out,
JAS
