It's been a busy month in the store keeping up with the new yarns and books that are arriving. Keep checking the blog because there are many more shipments coming. I had fun buying yarn while I was in San Jose. 

I can't wait for our shipment from Prism Yarns. We'll have kits for this awesome shawl.
Three strands of slender, silky Delicato team up in varying color combinations to create this dramatic wrap.
You take charge, changing colour gradually and at will. 
We chose a neutral palette and added a pop of Aegean to rev things up.

Turkish Cast On
The first step of the Ambah O'Brien Mystery KAL is to do the Turkish Cast On. As many of you know I'm not a sock knitter so this was new to me. Here is a video if you'd like to learn a new technique.
