Sought-after Spincycle!
My Sister Knits now has ……. wait for it …… a new shipment of Spincycle! And more on the way! We ordered every colorway of sport weight Dyed in the Wool and as many as we could of worsted weight Dream State.
Put a Smile on Your Face and a Spring in Your Step!
As I was walking into My Sister Knits on Tuesday, it was sunny and cold. Since it’s the middle of February, I thought that a brand new brightly colored hat would be a fun thing to have! I love the hat I wear the most but it isn’t colorful.
Opportunities to Learn a New Skill!
Can My Sister Knits tempt you with some classes? We have something for all experience levels!
There is still time to sign up for some of our February classes:
Joyful Pink!
We have a peek at a selection of some of our pink or pinkish yarns for you today! We see two reasons to knit with pink right now. Valentine’s Day is almost upon us and it makes us happy to knit with this color that has been described as evoking joy and happiness.
A New Sample with a Special Yarn!
My Sister Knits has a new sample on display knit with an often overlooked yarn for you! Decisions, decisions, do I tell you about the yarn first or the sample? I’ll go with the yarn which is from Wooldreamers.
Helping Others
My Sister Knits has a new project for you! We are offering free yarn and a free pattern for you to make something to help another person keep warm. We can make a tangible difference to unhoused people in Fort Collins.
Welcome CaMaRose!
My Sister Knits just received a shipment of CaMaRose yarn from Denmark! We can’t wait for you to come in and squish it to find out how luscious it is for yourself!
This and That
Happy New Year everyone! Instead of waxing poetic about our knitting at the end of one year and the beginning of the next, we’re going to dig right into some pertinent information!
Help at Your Fingertips!
At My Sister Knits, we love good YouTube video tutorials! Our memories need to be refreshed about certain techniques that aren’t used often.
We thought it would be handy to have some of them in one spot and that’s what this post is all about! So, in no certain order, here they are:
My Sister Knits Wishes You……
My Sister Knits wishes everyone a happy season, whatever holiday you celebrate!
Know Your Yarn, Part 2
In our article, Know Your Yarn, Part 1, we talked about the different weights of yarn. Today, in Part 2 of this series, we’re going to discuss Superwash and Non-Superwash yarn.
Patty Lyons’ Workbook Class!
First there was Patty Lyons’ book Knitting Bag of Tricks, a treasure in and of itself. Then came along The Official Workbook to accompany it! In it are seven lessons that include multiple exercises and thought-provoking questions to give us a better understanding of our own knitting.
Thanksgiving 2024
As Thanksgiving rolls around and we spend more time than usual thinking about what we’re thankful for, knitting and crocheting come to mind. These fiber arts enrich our lives in so many ways.
Holiday Gift Ideas
Holiday gift giving season is almost upon us and My Sister Knits is here to help you with gift decisions! We have options galore to share with you!
Holiday Gift Knitting
It’s that time of year again! At My Sister Knits we are realizing that there are only a few short weeks to get our gift knitting done so we’re carefully considering different projects. We need ones that will fly off our needles! We’re thinking that we aren’t the only ones in this predicament.
Know Your Yarn, Part 1
If you are wondering about different weights of yarn, what they are, what types of projects they are good for, how they differ, and which you should use for your next knitting experience, My Sister Knits is here for you!
A Special Shipment from Portugal!
While My Sister Knits likes to carry local and regional yarn, we also like finding international treasures that not many other shops carry.
An Often Overlooked Vital Need
Every year My Sister Knits has a sock drive in October. This year we are extending it until Black Friday.
Expand Your Skills!
My Sister Knits offers classes and other events for you to not only increase your knitting skills but have fun socializing!
Make It Tweed New Colors!
Today we are back to just plain fun eye candy, nothing serious or historical. While I was gone, My Sister Knits received an order of Make It Tweed new colors!
