Work in Progress Wednesday!

Sarah and Kitty are still hard at work on their respective projects.

Sarah has cast on a beautiful Field Guide Hat and Mitts from Plucky Knitter Designs with a breathtaking pink from Paintbox Yarns.

Kitty has finally hit the decreases of Baby Blanket #2 and she has less than two weeks to get it finished and blocked. Can she do it?

Cute totes are a must and this one fits all the boxes.

Crafting is magic, just wiggle your magic wands, mutter some words, and presto! Practice your stitchcraft and show it off with this gorgeous tote bag also available in stickers and unisex t-shirts.

Beetlejuice....Beetlejuice....beeeeee-CUZ!

Yep, it's SHOWTIME!

We are celebrating the new Ghost with the Most and daring you to Make Your Millenium (or a cute new bag, whichever you prefer). Try getting a headstart by hooking up this adorable bag by Dark N Twistyhousewife on Ravelry. Make it even creepier and more legit by using a bone crochet hook! (Sandworms are not included.)

It is officially the start of Spooky Season! What better way to get into the magic of the season of change than by taking part in a MKAL?

BooKnits has announced their newest MKAL, Enchantress starting October 1st. This beautiful top-down lace shawl will feature 6/0 seed beads (about 700) and up to 760 yards of laceweight yarn. Have you got your yarn all picked out yet? Kitty has!

Two months to go until Halloween!

Check out the Memento Sock pattern (free on Ravelry)!

Grab two skeins of highly contrasting sock yarn and be reminded of the endless forward march of time with the contrasting skull socks.

Having a swift as well as a ball winder makes those yarns that only come in hanks much easier to wrangle, so you can cast on or continue knitting quicker!

The Nirvana Twister Yarn Swift is a hand-crafted, tabletop, hardwood swift. Light and portable, the Twister can be easily disassembled so it can be quickly stored or packed for travel. The Twister’s arms extend to hold a skein up to 60 inches.

This is a natural wood product; color and grain variations are normal.

What did you use before you got one? Or what are you using now? Show us the fun ways you stabilize your skeins for winding!

WIP Wednesday!

Share what is on your needles, what just came off, or what you are waiting to finally be free of the blocking mats!

Sarah is working on this gorgeous Cascata Tee by Filipa Carneiro, a free pattern on Ravelry.

Kitty is tandem-knitting two Hooded Shawl Cardigans from Susanne Sommer in many varieties of blue, purple, and black.

WIP Wednesday!

It's forecasted to be over 100 later today, but right now it's cool so I'm enjoying my coffee with my knitting outside while I can!

For knitting any tube are you Team DPNs, Flyers, or Magic Loop? Does the project make a difference?

Sarah and Kitty both prefer Magic Loop but Kitty is excited to give flyers a try.

Inquiring minds want to know!

If knitting in the round is new to you, check out the Tin Can Knits blog!

Crochet this fun + festive hair scrunchie for school "wild hair" days or an easy "costume" hack at school or work! The Witchy Halloween Scrunchie by Emily Ann is free on Ravelry.

If you prefer knitting, try this adorable Hyacinth Scrunchie from Mountain Majesty Designs! It is simple, beautiful, and a fun little statement piece to wear!

It's getting closer to Spooky Season and we know what that means! Ready for a Spooky Sneak-Peek?

The new designs will be available on September 1st!

Does this sight look familiar to anyone else?

But what is a book without a lovely beverage and a snarky cup?

It's Finished Object Friday!

What is free of your needles, blocking or being worn and shown off now?

Sarah managed to finish off three whole socks and she won the battle of casting on the final sock! Such pretty colors!

Kitty finished off her I-Cord Journey for the third Dice Bag of Minimal Magic and she's already got a fourth lined up.

Share your finished projects and rejoice with us!

Our friend Heather has started work on an edited Celestarium and she grabbed a veritable hoard of beautiful beads to get it as sparkly as the night sky itself.

Heather is a bad influence because her doing this has made it so that Kitty would very much like to do one as well. (Has far too many projects floating around desperately crying for attention)

This 100% cotton bag comes in one size – 15" x 16"– perfect for everyday wear. While the canvas material will show off your designs in great colors, it's durable and will last for years. The bag features 20" handles (made from the same canvas), making it easy to carry even with a week's worth of shopping.

Available in Black and Natural, Knitting and Crochet!

6" HiyaHiya Crochet Hooks are made of lightweight aluminum. The smooth finish and elegantly shaped head make stitching a pleasure.

Each size is colored differently to easily locate the hook you are looking for!

And if you don't like metal hooks, we have bone, ebony, and maple as well!

Stitch Markers are a crafters best friend!

Do you prefer Locking, Safety Pins, or Yarn Ball stitch markers?

(Zoey the Office Gremlin votes for Yarn Balls)

What is the funniest thing you have used as a stitch marker?

https://knittingneedleoutlet.com/collections/stitch-markers

We have stuffed our favorite little sheep with goodies! Fits perfectly on your desk, coffee table, or wherever you prefer to knit to hold your necessary tools.

Available in Clear or Black, the Stuffed Sheep Box includes a Tape Measure, a Snip, a set of Locking Stitch Markers, and a set of Yarn Ball Stitch Markers.

Today is Black Cat Appreciation Day! Our little shop cat, Poppy, might not be a card-carrying member of the Black Cat Club but she is certainly a cat and one we greatly appreciate!

Share a picture of your cat with your latest project!

(And yes, that is Poppy trying to steal Baby Blanket #1, but she hasn't tried to steal/claim the newest blanket or any of Kitty's dice bags)

WIP Wednesday!

Show us what is on your needles! Kitty has a Dice Bag of Minimal Magic from Diana Keyson that she is almost finished with (well, the bag and then begins the Journey of the I-Cord). This pattern is free on Ravelry and is so much fun that Kitty is on her third bag!

It's still hot and small projects are an easy choice to pick up and put down as needed!
We love the look of these Log Cabin Mitts by Karen Templar: great for stash busting, quick to knit on our HiyaHiya Flyers as an alternative to double points, it's not a bad idea to start knitting for fall, and the pattern is free!
