Scarves, Hats & Mittens Oh My!

Christmas has past...however, the projects keep flowing off the needles.  Here are a few of the projects we've enjoyed seeing at the shop.

Norma knit this scarf called The Japanese Mystery Scarf.  The yarn used was one of Shaeffer's beautiful laceweight yarns. The pattern is available at the shop. She looks beautiful in it!

Isabel knit this Not So Lacey Lace Scarf and Ann Norling 54 Spiral Rib Hat. Both were knit out of Cascade 220 washable wool.

Isabel also knit these mittens from an old pattern that she has, called The Classic Mittens & Gloves For The Entire Family.  The yarn used for these mittens was Cascade 220 washable wool.

Kathy knit this baby sweater Mock Cable & Basket Weave Sweaters #23.  The yarn used was Cascade 220 superwash wool.

Sue Polomski knit this gorgeous

Short Row Multi-Directional Scarf by Ann Norling.

The yarn used is Zauberball.  Both the pattern and yarn are available at the shop.  Other colors also available.

The Knit Kit is a fun new knitting tool available at the shop.  Perfect for travel...keeping all your knitting notions in one unit.  It's approved for airline travel!
