Makes for a lovely January Spring day, though! The weathermen say this might be the last week of El Nino warmth, so enjoy it while you can! Soon we can actually wear our handknits on a regular basis again…which brings me to this:

127 Print Caliometry

If you’re into making the new Calorimetry pattern from Knitty.com - we have the yarn in MANY colors, as shown above. It only takes one skein, so you can afford to make one for a friend too. Or just have one in a different color for yourself. *wink*

Well, we’ve started posting new classes on our site, including some of these new ones:
