Back to the studio after our week off!! Many of us went to the beach with family, some of us went to the mountains with friends, and some of us did the Staycation. It sounds like we all had a pretty good time, got rested and relaxed!
And now! It's time to start getting ready for SSK over in Nashville, TN in mid-July and Stitches Midwest in Schaumburg, IL in early August!! Come see us! We'll be doing some new things and have some new colors and project ideas which we will reveal as we get closer!
In the meantime, let's do a giveaway! The giveaway is one skein of Hot Shot! Color is winner's choice! Leave a comment about what summer knitting you are doing (or not doing) here on the blog by midnight PST on June 23. We'd love it of you can include the name of the pattern, 'cause we like to know what people are knitting!
Edited to Add: I've just emailed the winner. Congratulations, Chanda! We hope you enjoy your Hot Shot!

Hello! I’m doing a Test Knit for Megan. My projects page is here: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/ShoreShihTzuNurs/barbaras-grimes BTW, I had a dream the other night that I met Miss Babs through a friend. I was then invited to Miss Babs’ home where we played with color and dyed a new colorway together! It was awesome!
I’m in the middle of a Vector scarf by Tanis and am soon to start some Nola’s Slippers as Christmas gifts. I have more sweaters than I’d like to admit that are WIPs, too! So many things to knit!!!
I am knitting Boxy with a silk blend… It’s lovely and I’ll probably finish next year…but that’s ok. I love this sweater.
