Rozetti Marina has arrived



Janice loved this new project-she took home two skeins to make some Christmas gifts.



I can't believe one of these is upside down  :O  Who took that picture?????

 Simple as slipping loops on needles.  What do you all think about me doing a workshop with this yarn?  You come in buy the yarn and I will get you started.  This will be the first of many workshops we want to offer our customer at Serendipity.

Should stitch markers make me feel smile???

I couldn't help myself, I just had to take a photo of these. They just make me smile every time I SM :) I am finding reasons to put them on projects when normally I would just remember what I need to do at that point.

Here is my latest knit--a honeycomb cowl. One of my favorite color ways in Malabrigo is Stonechat. This yarn has been balled and ready for a project for months. I started a couple days ago and like a good book I can't put it down.

Here is little more color for you. We are getting excited about the Dyed in the Wool class that will be taking place on September 18th.




Look what a skein of the Stimulus Package with create!! This is a beautiful "Citron" shawl.

My new favorite sweater

I lost some yarn in the flower bed after the bike race, thanks to my co-worker Jody she found most of it. I love my new sweater and Linda (a good friend and Saturday morning knitter) purchased enough to make hers today. I would term the sweater very easy.

It is just the perfect weight of sweater to ride down to work after a evening of nice rain. It can get chilly here in the mountains. My favorite part of this sweater is the back. I like the was it is knit from one sleeve to the next. Come in and I will talk you through it all. :)

Why I make my own yarn!

I have to pinch myself sometimes to realize I made this yarn. This pattern is called "Seaweed Shawl" and shortly after the pattern arrived I finished up this yarn. It is a match for the project. I actually am spinning some more for my sister in law-Lynne to make her one. The shawl is a very easy knit with some fun lace work right at the end.

This is latest arrival at the store. It is the Bijou Basin and the staff here at Serendipity is gearing up to do our first every exclusive Bijou Basin KAL. On September 12th it will begin, the yarn has arrived and the designer is putting the finishing touches on our pattern. There will be lots more details in our news letter. I know what colors I want but am letting you all have first crack at the yarns. Let us know how we can help.

Look who's arriving in Buena Vista

I am spinning some brown fiber for my friend Lynne on my Matchless. It is looking like it will work for a shawl. More photos to come of that later.

The cute as a bug "Lady Bug" I might be able to haul her around very easy too.

I am waiting for them to arrive tomorrow at Serendipity. Robin purchased the first one in the store and she is planning on selling her other wheel and just keeping the side kick. She loves it and I think it has already taken a plane ride with her to Florida. Now I one said I would only own one wheel--I may be rethinking that after I saw this beauty at spinning last week. She can be moved around very easy compared to my wheel. Don't get me wrong I love the Matchless from Schacht but it is a bit hard to haul around. If you are interested come by the store soon. I know Janet already has her eye on a side kick. I think they will be gone quickly.

You can come and try all of these wheels at Serendipity plus others. See you soon.
