New Knitscene Fall 2010 has Arrived!

The new Fall 2010 issue of Knitscene has arrived! Check out the projects HERE – it’s a good one!

NEW Magazines!


Knitting Traditions (Special Issue), $16.95
The new special magazine Knitting Traditions from Interweave has arrived! It’s full of quality patterns and articles on traditional knitting techniques and old fashioned aesthetics.  This issue is VERY informative, including an article on the anatomy of a cowichan sweater and knitting 2 socks at once (a la War and Peace, with one inside the other). There are lots of sock, mitten, shawl and traditional style sweaters.

Piecework January/February 2010
Piecework Magazine $8.99
We just got in a special Historical Knitting Issue of Piecework magazine. Check out their website, there is a freebie pattern and a profile of Rowan Yarns that also includes a pattern for a Kaffe Fasset style scarf (the scarf looks like tedious knitting, you have to changes colours manual can use one of the yarns from the Kafe Fasset Design Line by Regia to get the exact same striping  effect). It also features a new pattern stitch by Barbara Walker (cover).

Knitscene Winter/Spring 2010
Knitscene Winter-Spring 2010 $9.99
The new winter/spring 2010 Knitscene is so popular that we sold out, but we’ve got it in stock again! Check out the projects HERE.

Interweave Knits Spring 2009

The Spring 2009 Interweave Knits ($7.99) has also been around for a few weeks already but it’s worth taking a glance because there are some really nice projects!

Super pretty Silk Cocoon Cardigan

Diminshing Rib Cardigan, make it in cotton or wool or anything that’s worsted weight!

Net Duffle Bag, prefect in Super 10 cotton!

Knitscene Spring 2009

Knitscene Spring 2009

The new Spring 2009 Knitscene has actually been around for a little bit, but I haven’t blogged about it yet and there are some nice projects

A simple to knit/easy to wear vest like Solvang is a no brainer and you’ll be able to wear it next fall and winter too.

Blue Filigree Hat may not be on your mind as the sun comes out of hiding but come fall it will be!

The same thing goes for the Tempest Beret , get the magazine and file it under “to-do”.

Pretty, casual, and wearable sweaters like Forever Tweed never go out of style. Ever. Plus it’s knit top-down pullovers in the round, a simple and satisfying knit. It would look great (and get gauge) in Jo Sharp Silkroad Aran Tweed on a 5mm needle.
