Total Eclipse of the Shop! Well, One Monday, Anyway.
If you haven't heard, there's a total solar eclipse Monday, April 8th. The store will be closed that day so that we can all hightail it a bit up I-24 to be in the path of full totality. We hope you get a chance to do the same, wherever you find yourself (it's the last total solar eclipse in the US until 2044), and remember: don't look directly at it!
Easy Folded Poncho + STRIPES!
Y'all, we've had this sample of the Easy Folded Poncho completed for months and we're so excited to finally be sharing it with you. For this one, we worked two-row stripes, alternating a solid skein of Old Rusted Chair sock yarn with a Molly Klein Mini-Skein Set. When Meg picked the colors, she obviously had a visit to the beach in mind because the finished piece is begging to be worn while sipping a seaside margarita!

*sample is ORC Branch Out (1 skein) and MK Mini Skein Set Pastel Rainbow (1 set)
