At My Sister Knits, we’re looking for comfortable summer projects to work on in the heat. Even air conditioning doesn’t always make working on a full-sized wool project pleasant. We have two good options for this challenge…

Plan now for the Hot August Knits Yarn Crawl, July 29th to August 12th! I don’t know about you but it often sneaks up on me. I want to be sure to visit all of the shops during the two-week event so I’m going to start planning and get it on my calendar!

My Sister Knits' passion is to find yarn that has something special about it, something that appealed to us in one way or another. It could come from as far away as Denmark or as near as Loveland, CO!

If you haven’t seen the Teenie Weenie Beanie video, watch this before you read on! It will have you laughing and dancing in your seat! Fortunately, the knitting world takes note of such things and Jean-Philippe Cliche was inspired to design a Teenie Weenie Beanie based on this video!

Is Ravelry overwhelming to you? Is there so much information in this amazing database that it makes your brain cringe at the thought of delving into it? Today we hope to make some of it easier to navigate.

My Sister Knits’ supply of Coast to Coast yarn has been restocked! We are one of only four shops in the United States that carry this captivating yarn! Julie continues to amaze us with her skill of discovering rare yarn!

Have you ever wanted to make a particular project but felt it was beyond your ability so you gave up on it? However, you kept thinking about it and couldn’t get it out of your mind? That type of project falls into the category of ‘one day’ projects; projects that you want to make one day but not right now.

My Sister Knits constantly has yarn, books, and samples added or restocked. If you’ve ever witnessed a UPS shipment arriving at the shop, you’ve seen first-hand the excitement that comes with it. It’s always fun to open those boxes!

Today I’m going to tell you the story of a hat I just finished for my son. When I reached the decreases for the crown I was not at all happy with how they looked. 

Pernille Larsen was a first-time grandma who lived in Copenhagen and was, of course, a knitter. She wasn’t content just knitting for that dear little babe, oh no! She started designing for her!

Julie has found us another intriguing yarn! KAOS from Denmark is our newest addition.  And, yes, it’s pronounced just like its English counterpart, chaos, and has the same meaning.

KAOS is quite popular in European countries, especially Germany and Denmark. We are the only local yarn shop that carries it in the entire middle of the US!

Classes! We have classes for you! 

My Sister Knits has not one but two books we want you to know about! 

The first one is Patty Lyons’ Knitting Bag of Tricks.  It is as useful for experienced knitters as it is for beginners! This book is actually mind-blowing! 

My Sister Knits has our very own fingering weight cowl pattern for your knitting pleasure!  Actually, it’s Diana’s brainchild so we have named it Diana’s Cowl!

My Sister Knits has an absolutely stunning new yarn! 

It’s from the Italian region of Biella, 50 miles from Milan. Among world-renowned fashion houses, Biella is known for world-class wool. T

My Sister Knits has a sample of an impressive colorwork shawl in the shop! This shawl looks quite complicated due to the colorwork patterns used.
