Colorwork to Lift Your Spirits!
A cheerful colorwork project lifts our spirits and we think everyone could use some of that during these crazy times! It seems as if all of us at My Sister Knits has a project with more than one color in it on the needles right now.
A New FDF Yarn: Recollect
Recollect is a plied sport weight yarn that is 100% Rambouillet. Most Rambouillet is white but Farmer’s Daughter’s is 75% white and 25% black. The unusual, hard to find combination of colors creates a gray base resulting in colors that are delightfully rich and rustic.
Rare Wing and a Prayer Farm Yarn!
Wing and a Prayer Farm is a glorious, magical place! When driving down the lane you first see the imposing red and white barn and around it are the animals: sheep, alpacas, angora goats, miniature donkeys, horses, chickens, ducks, and turkeys.
Woolly Blooms Tipless Gloves (Copy)
Wooly Blooms Tipless Gloves are definitely something you should give serious thought to making this summer!
First, they are a small portable project that won’t take up lap space and make you hot!
Second, they look like they are so much fun to make! Each pair is unique and can be personalized by the knitter.
Emilia and Philomene Have Arrived!
Emilia & Philomene yarns have only been available for three years. Lucky for us, Julie found them!
Clinton Hill Cashmere, Oh My!
A skein or two of Clinton Hill Cashmere yarn is an indulgence that you will treasure for years to come!
Getting cashmere off of the goat and onto your needles is quite a process and involves a world-wide trip. The term ‘cashmere’ indicates the downy underfiber that goats generate as insulation in the winter. Then they shed it in the summer. Cashmere does not mean a certain breed of goat!
