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 making Purl Soho’s Knotched Hem Tank (free on Rav) as a gift for my DD’s 21st birhday!
Not doing very much knitting this summer! I have a Dreambird shawl languishing. I would love to try Hot Shot!
I’m knitting Laylow by Shannon Cook as a KAL with my LYS!
I’m spinning instead of knitting lately. I snagged some great Babs fiber when it went on sale a while ago, and it’s turning into yarn this week.
I think I’m doing more spinning than knitting so far this summer, but I am knitting this year’s Through the Loops Mystery Shawl by Kirsten Kapur. We’re on clue 4 right now and it is turning out so beautiful, it is lace and it is perfect for summer time heat.
I’m knitting the Knocknagree shawl patten by Carrie Sullivan of Irishgirlie Knits out of Miss Babs Cosmic Sock in the Ruby Spinel colorway. Thanks for the chance to win!
I am working on my Rhinebeck sweater! I’m making Allyson Dykhuizen’s Sweater of Broad Shoulders.
I am knitting “The Hole Story” shawl by Knit Purl Hunter. I’m enjoying using a DK weight yarn for a change. It seems to be growing more quickly on a size 6 needle>
In the homestretch on my Foolproof. Light enough to carry around and work a few rows without getting overheated!
Socks, chemo hats, and dishcloths.
