Aventica Elegance

We have had a delivery of SMC Aventica Elegance,  a multi-coloured woven chunky yarn with a sliver of glitter running through it.  The 100g ball is designed so that a shrug can be knitted from the one ball, with the sparkle in the yarn, it just adds that extra something to the overall effect. 

Looking closely at the yarn, it does look as if it would be a good substitute for Patons Colour Works Aran, for which we have a wide range of patterns, the most popular being an edge to edge jacket, from Patons Booklet 3776

(although it is called Aran it does knit up on a 6.5mm needle)

We have been having a tidy up in the shop and found several ex-display garments which we are sorting out and putting up for sale, Sale Rail 1 is already available, keep your eyes on the website for more….

Zimmerman style workshop

Beryl has been with us all day teaching a group of ladies how to knit Zimmerman style.    

The noise level does rise occassionally but generally they have been very quiet as they concentrate on using one hand to knit with and the other to purl with.

Here’s what they are aiming for

We have had a little time to start an SMC Lofty scarf, here’s what we have so far…

We discovered the further apart you space your stitches the fluffier the scarf is.
