My favorite holiday activity every year is wrapping presents with yarn! Great thing to do with leftovers, and infinitely creative! The only problem is people feel bad opening them🤣😜🧶🎁🎄 #CraftyWrapping #YarnGiftWrap #HappyHolidays #GetCraftyWithIt #KnittersOfInstagram #yarnaddictsofinstagram

Are they udders? Frog pants? No… they’re slippers! I fell in love with this Norwegian slipper pattern and spent the last week modifying and reworking it to be a simple knit for my customers. Download the original pattern #dobletøfler by @sandnesgarn from Ravelry and email us to get our modifications if you want to make them with Malabrigo Worsted like we did. They fit like a dream! Stay tuned to see the striped pair we’re making next. Sizes kid- adult men. #feltslippers #malabrigoworsted #cozyknit #cozyslippers #knitslippers #knittersofinstagram #woolslipper

Our Easy Double Tube Hat is one of the easiest hat patterns out there. Just knit a tube, cinch both ends, tuck one end inside the other, and voilà! It knits up quick, and is extra squishy and warm. A great pattern for beginners, and quick-knit gift giving! ☺️ The Easy Double Tube Hat is FREE with purchase of yarn! Just mention the pattern at checkout (both in store and online). Justine knit this one with two balls of @langyarns_official Cashmere Light (one color each) on US 11 needles. You can see the finished product in the shop! Yarn available in the shop and online.

What the heck even is a nostepinne? 🤔 This simple but brilliant (and ancient!) tool is used to hand-wind a center-pull ball of yarn. It’s great for traveling, and for folks who don’t have a mechanized yarn winder! Plus it’s surprisingly easy to use - let us show you how.

These @knittingforolive Merino colors are so lovely, and the 100% merino is so soft! ✨ Did you know that this yarn pairs perfectly with other Knitting for Olive colors, like Soft Silk Mohair? (Knitting for Olive has is a good resource of their website for color matching with mohair, if you need a little help!) Knitting for Olive Merino & Soft Silk Mohair available in the shop and online. https://castawayyarnshop.com/products/knitting-for-olive-merino https://castawayyarnshop.com/products/knitting-for-olive-soft-silk-mohair-1765

Summer fruits are in! Which one is the most delicious? 🍊🍉🍎🍋🍍🍓 Find these delectable wool felt shapes (and more!) in the shop.

As @jojilocat puts it, the Bobble Cowl is "a knitter’s dream: a great accessory, a super fun knit, and the perfect way to use up a single skein of yarn. The little bobbles in the edges make this project simply irresistible…" We knit this fluffy sample with one cone of @itoyarn Kinu in the color "Peach" and two balls of @knittingforolive Soft Silk Mohair in the color "Soft Peach". 🍑 You can learn to make this fun and fashionable cowl in a two-part class on May 6 and 20! ⭐️ Visit our website for more details! https://castawayyarnshop.com/products/learn-to-knit-the-bobble-cowl

We recently restocked new colors @seachangefibers Bayshore, one of our favorite summer yarns! ⛱️ We first stocked this yarn last summer, and have been eagerly awaiting the warm season so we could cast on with it again. It's a perfect springtime blend of 75% cotton and 25% merino/rambouillet wool. The dye takes to the wool and cotton differently, creating a beautiful sunbleached effect and wonderfully heathered texture. We knit a Thea Top with three skeins of the color "Straw Bale" held double - a summertime staple! ☀️ Yarn: https://castawayyarnshop.com/products/sea-change-bayshore-3507 Pattern: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/thea-top

Cute scissor covers in the shop. ✂️💕 Which one is your favorite?

There's nothing better on a cold day than a hand knit pair of socks. Except maybe...an extra glitzy pair! We knit this sample with @knittedwit Pixie Plied. ✨ You'll have to take my word for it when I say this yarn is delightfully sparkly - this video barely does it any justice. Our sock sample doesn't use a specific pattern - just pick any basic sock pattern, and add twisty 1x1 cables in place of ribbing on the cuff.

The Little Something Tee from @minimiknitdesign is the perfect staple top. If you knit yours in this in slinky soft @mirasolyarns Usun cotton blend, you'll be tempted to wear it every single day of spring and summer. 🌻

Happy first day of spring. ☺️ Can you see the tree blossoms fluttering down? 🌸

We're seeing Pressed Flowers everywhere these days, so we just had to make one for ourselves! This flowery cowl is so fun to knit, you'll be finished before you know it. The @thefibrecompany &Make DK we used for this sample has great stitch definition, a beautiful slinky drape thanks to the alpaca and linen blended with the merino, and is so snuggly to wear.
