Dear customers and friends!  
 
 
This is just a brief Hello and a welcome to those new customers who just joined our mailing list. Especially all those Klabauter knitalong participants - I hope you got your Centolavaggi yarn and are catching up!
 
So there IS a July newsletter, just in order not to fall behind too much - some brief notes:
 
  • On Saturday August 15th we will have our national Knit in the Park again. On Ostler Park, just across from our store. Yarn and refreshments are on us. The project will be Cotton Caps for chemo patients in our local Knit in the Parkcancer care program. 11-4 pm, bring your lawn chair and something to nibble... Beginners are welcome, it's fun!

And if you come from out of town, our very own  B&B takes easily 4, even up to 8 knitters.

Free Pattern of the Month

  
Thank you Old Mill Knitting!
 
The pattern for this cabled tunic designed by Cornelia Hamilton was originally published in Interweave Knits.
                                     

Cabled Tunic


The tunic is knit in Zara from Filatura di Crosa on 4.5mm needles. There are four sizes available on the pattern.
 
For the next three months we will be focusing on the Zara Family of yarns from Filatura di Crosa.  These include Zara, Zara Plus and Zarina.

All three yarns are 100% superwash merino wool and come in 50gram balls.

Zara - 125m with a tension of 22 stitches to 4" on 4mm needles.

Zara Plus - 70m with a tension of 18 stitches to 4" on 5mm needles.

Zarina - 165m with a tension of 26 stitches to 4" on 3.5mm needles.

We just stocked a lot of these yarns!!
