We've been very busy here at Knit Pickings! Where to even start? We had our second "Fun Friday Event"- a fashion show starring our students, customers and shop family. We asked everyone to bring their knit and crochet items to model for us, and they did not disappoint! So many gorgeous, beautifully made items graced our catwalk. We also had some fantastic raffle prizes: gorgeous sock yarn, wool wash, and two wonderful knitting bags. As you can see by the pictures, we had a great time!






We'd like to thank everyone for their enthusiasm and participation!


In stock now: Sereknity Yarn in sock and DK weights. Amazingly hand painted skeins with names like "Rock Lobster", "Blue Hawaii", "Sweet Baby James", "Watermelon", and "After Dinner Mint"...colors you will absolutely fall in love with!


In other news, all J-Knits yarn is now 50% off!

wouldn't now be a great time to add to your stash?
