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!

I am knitting the Water for the Elephants socks, Thunderstorm Mystery Shawl KAL, Iraira Shawl and the Handbrake scarf. When those are done, I have MANY WIPs hibernating. But I always seem to find time to cast on one more project.
I am about half done with a Shetland lace shawl of my own design :)
I couldn’t tell if my prior posted, but I’m doing lots of babyknots. Currently trying to focus on finishing up a Grumpybum monster longie:

My summer knitting has been all about catching up with baby knits for all the recent Spring babies-including twins! I haven’t been using a pattern for the hats, but I did start a mini Rivulet Cardigan (pattern by Shannon Oakey). And am trying to finish GrumpyBum Monster longies:

my summer knitting is trying to finish up all the things I’m entering in our county fair! I have to finish a crib blanket, a pair of socks, a cabled sweater, and possibly some mittens by the end of July!
