Barry Klein's Crossed Stitch Jacket Kit

Vogue Criss Cross Jacket


Featured in the Fall 2018 Vogue Knitting Magazine, this fabulous Chanel-inspired jacket is made with Trendsetter Icon and GGH Manila. These are yarns we stock if you want them for other projects. When Barry was here recently he had the jacket with him, and to say it was stunning was an understatement. 

The jacket is soft, unique, and with just enough 'bling' in the yarn to make this a very special piece.

The pattern is NOT included. You'll need the Fall 2018 issue of Vogue Knitting. We usually have it in stock as well.


North Star Flip-Top Mitts

North Star Flip Flop


Make these fun mitts using Trendsetter New York yarn! The pattern is not in the kit, but is available in the magazine Interweave Knits Holiday Gifts 2018.

Auntie Wooly Says...

Dahlings!

Sometimes we want to spend a lot of time looking at all the colors and fibers and look through hundreds of patterns before we decide to make our next project. Other times, we just want to pick up a kit and start work!

Today is the day for the latter. We want to knit something but we don't want to spend a lot of time choosing colors or worrying about yardage. Especially at this time of year I find myself looking at kits so I can just get into playing with the yarn.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone this month as we celebrate the Scarecrow Festival in Cambria!

Until next time...

Happy Stitching!

Is it too early to start working on holiday projects?
Of course not!

Santa's Coming Kits

We fell in love with these cute new kits from Trendsetter and we  think  you will too. Fun to knit, and plenty of sparkle for that festive look that just makes you smile. Available in 6 different color combinations, we think these will be the hit of your holiday decorations. They're fun gifts to make as well! All the yarn and the pattern to make the kit is included.


More Kits!

Mama Mia Kit

One Kit makes any of these three shawl patterns, designed by Barry Klein!

In addition to the patterns, each kit contains 5 skeins of Gomitolo Merino as well as a skein of Silkhair, a soft mohair and silk blend with beautiful colors.

Sunset over Cambria

Sunset over Cambria Oz

Why is Oz smiling? Because he's wearing the Interlocking Triangles Wrap in our custom color palette " Sunset over Cambria"!

Laura Bryant created this palette for us based on some photos we sent her of sunsets over Cambria. This color palette is only available through us and is a great reminder of our beautiful little town in a lovely part of the world.

You can use the included patterns, or dive into any pattern that uses fingering or sport weight yarn.

Laura says:
"The charming coastal town of Cambria has a long history as an artist's enclave. Sitting amidst Monterey pines and wine country, with a thriving Main Street filled with independently owned shops and restaurants, Cambria is a favorite destination for those seeking a little respite.
Sitting on Moonstone Beach and watching the sunset with a good local wine for company is as good as it gets!  Enjoy creating your own memory of Cambria."


Scarecrow Festival!

October is a fun time in Cambria. Not only do we typically get beautiful weather, but we also become hosts to hundreds of whimsical, entertaining, and unique scarecrows all over town!

October is also the return of Auntie Wooly. She'll be outside the shop greeting all our guests for the month of October. So stop by and say hello!

Free Crochet Pattern!

Rainbow Crochet ScarfThis fun scarf is crocheted using 6 colors of machine washable Berroco Ultra Wool. You can use any 6 colors you like, but we chose them in the very popular rainbow color scheme.
