Shop Mystery KAL for Jan

Join us for a Jan Mystery KAL!

One of our favorite knitters, Michelle Hunter (aka KnitPurlHunter.com and author of the  Building Blocks books series and an awesome video library) hosts regular KALs. For first time all the planets aligned so we can join in the fun with her next endeavor.

What pray tell is on tap for Jan 2015? It's a unisex cabled scarf using Hikoo's Kenzie yarn called Endgame

Here's how it works:

Michelle releases parts of the pattern each Thurs. mornings in Jan on her blog. There's no pictures posted until the big reveal at end of the month so we have to knit it to see it.

Our Shop KAL starts Jan 4 or 5 (Sun or Mon) from 1-4ish. It's  free so just Come by, (call or email) to sign up and to pick out your yarn. Then cast on with us. As always with Michelle there's new techniques & skills learned as we knit away. By month's end we'll have a lovely modern cabled scarf, mad new skills and a gift ready for gifting. So join us on Sun or Mon during month of January.

Materials List:
  • Kenzie by HiKoo, 50% New Zealand merino, 25% nylon, 10% angora, 10% alpaca, 5% silk noils, 3(4) skeins – all the same color (just arrived in the shop: new brighter colors! )
