Stratum...



A few weeks ago, a customer came into the shop wearing the most adorable beret that her grandmother had knit for her years ago.  She didn't have the pattern, so the hunt began.  Hmmmm well wouldn't you know, it exists indeed and it's the Stratum Beret from Kelbourne Woolens (of course)!  It took 2 skeins of Terra, and knit up in a couple of days.  I've been in love with their new colorways, and my daughter chose Sorrel weeks ago for a hat, so that was that!  Courtney Kelly of Kelbourne Woolens, just had her latest design, the Lace Cardi in Vogue Knitting, did you see this ?  I need to knit this asap, I can't wait.

I just ordered Savannah today in every color, it's a gorgeous Dk blend of wool, cotton, linen and soya- perfect for spring.  Now I just need to decide on a color...

Yesterday, we received a rather large shipment of Madelinetosh merino light and merino dk.  I don't really need to tell you how absolutely stunning these colors are, I actually grabbed 2 skeins of tosh merino light in Well Water and Amber Trinkett for a change since I keep missing out on it.  I'm going to try my best to get it up on the website, but it's flying out the door so fast. By the time I'm done shooting the pictures, there won't be much left.  I'll attempt that tomorrow, today I'm busy thinking about patterns for my tosh merino light...

  1. Scarlett is such a cutie! I can't believe how much she's grown up this year. She's rocking that hat!
