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!

It’s all about the socks………lots and lots of socks!
I am currently working on the shawl pattern "NO-BO, a/k/a 3-3-1. I am knitting it in Miss Babs Yummy 2-ply in the colorway “In the Shadows”. I really love this yarn, soft and light weight but warm for the fall. I have two more “Brickless” shawls and one Hitchhiker shawl. This should take me the rest of the summer.
Working on a triangle (somewhat freeform LOL) shawl in wild silk moss, and a Pi shawl (Oh the counting!) in Yowsa Ansel. Can’t get enough of Miss Bab’s fiber!!
I’ll admit it…95° with an index of over 102…yarn has not been sliding through these fingers much as of late
