August at HYS…
Hello! Can you believe August has arrived? There are still some glorious days of summer ahead, but it’s not too early to start planning your fall knits, right?
AUGUST KAL
We’ve revisited an old favorite for this month’s KAL … The Love Note Sweater by Tin Can Knits. This sweet little sweater knits up quickly from the top down. The combination of mohair lace and fingering creates a fabric that is floaty, soft and light. With a high-low hemline and two length options, what’s not to love? Grab your supplies to join in on the Love Note KAL and you’ll save 15% with our monthly KAL discount.
Henny knit hers with using a staple yarn from Malabrigo - Ultimate Sock in the Old Rose colorway, held with a newbie from Malabrigo….
Introducing Mohiar from Malabrigo!
Add elegance to your knits with this new addition to the Malabrigo line. Whether you are adding that elegant halo to your knits or looking for that perfect drapey accessory, this base is sure to meet your needs. We are fully stocked with the pretty colors below!
Crochet Classes in August!
During the month of August, Henny will be offering crochet classes for new crocheters. This is for those newbies that already know a few stitches - chain, single, and double crochet - who now want to move on to learning how to read a pattern.
Classes will cost $15 plus materials. The pattern is FREE with the class and you’ll be able to make three dishcloths with one skein of the Coastal Cotton from Queensland.
Classes are available on Wednesdays at 1:00 pm and Thursdays at 10:00 am during the month of August. Call the shop to get on Henny’s schedule!
We have one more pair of adorable socks to round out our Summer of Summer Lee Socks. It’s easy to see we are just a little bit obsessed with her Sock Project book! (There are still a couple of copies left at the shop if you want one of your own.) This month we will be knitting the Seafarer Socks that feature a mix of ribbing and cute little cables.
