Hiking with a little project with yarn from the Iberian Penninsula! Wrist warmers knit with 90 Varas @wooldreamers_us . It seemed appropriate here in beautiful Basque Country 🩵 🐙. Finished a project for our next stop and kinda blocked it on my pack one day! So beautiful on the Del Norte Camino! Buen Camino! #knittinginmybackpack #caminodelnorte

Amanda says the Shelley Summer Top might be her most worn piece of knitwear… which says a lot because Amanda knits like a mad woman! Our friend Nancy @gettingpurlywithit pattern on Ravelry is great with any outfit for warmer days. ☀️ Amanda knit hers with just two skeins of the VERY popular Cascade yarn we have on line called Hampton. With lots of colors that we are constantly ordering this dk weight cotton/linen blend cannot be beat! Melissa knit her Shelley in @isager Palette. A cotton tape yarn that looks amazing as well in a slightly different guage. If you have never knit lace, feather and fan is a fantastic pattern that looks sooo good! Great for beginners! Do you like music when you are looking at knitwear on IG? Hah #cascadehampton #featherandfan #gettingpurlywithit #shelleysummertop #isagerpalette

Roomy Raglan Light is a welcome addition to the @julesknitthis line of “Roomies”! We carry on line and in the shop Eco Merino dk which Jules used with a wooly fingering to create a marle. We love this soft and rustic yarn! The possibilities are endless, of course, to mix an undyed neutral with a fingering yarn. Amanda mixed @spunrightround with Eco Wool for the chunkier version with such great effect for little pops of color. Tomorrow is Local Yarn Shop Day and we would like to thank you all for calling us your LYS for 20 years! It’s hard to believe we’ve known some of you for that long ❤️❤️❤️. We have a little raffle tomorrow for gift cards if you visit Saturday! We will enter you in our prize give aways with purchase :). If we are not your usual LYS, go tell your special shop you appreciate them too! #roomyraglan #roomyraglanlight #cascadeyarns #cascadeecomerinodk #lysday

We love tweeds at Close Knit! This new yarn from @hey_mama_wolf_co Beara is unique and special. So, we had to have it on our shelves:). Beara is spun at the historic Donegal Mill of Irish wool and UK alpaca. The wool is from small herds in Ireland to support small shepard wool production too. We love the unique palette as well! It’s very unusual shades with little surprise pops of color are soft and gentle with a wonderful soft but rustic hand. We have most of the shades in stock now and they are also in our web shop. We are all brewing on this magical yarn 🧡🩵🧡🩵🧡🩵🧡🩵! #heymamawolfyarns #heymamawolfbeara #irishwool #donegaltweed #welovetweed

We do love our undyed neutrals at Close Knit. Because @noroyarns Haunui has been so popular, we decided to get Haunui Silk as well! After seeing @myfavouritethings.knitwear cardigan No. 9 knit up with mohair, we were sold! For a lighter cardi it would be beautiful without mohair too!! All these are in our web-shop, but if you feel the soft luxury in the store, you will be sold! #norohaunuisilk #noroyarn #myfavoritethingsknitwear

Taylor shared her freshly blocked Linea Sweater @innusik.studio with us today! So SO cute. She used 4 skeins of @cascadeyarns 220Grande (2 skeins each color) for the cropped version (xs). We have this yarn in the shop only. We can help you pick shades! The rainbow of buttons just makes this sweater perfect! The pattern is on Ravelry. Great job Taylor! 🩵🩷💜❤️ #cascade220grande #cascadeyarns #lineacardigan #ourcustomersinspireus

We’ve restocked @camarosedk Snefnug in all its forms with every shade we could get our hands on! Although not every color is restocked we have nearly 50 beautiful colors in sweater quantities after we get these 4 new ones on line too! The new shades shown here are available in the shop now! The ever popular Ivy Sweater (without mohair) and Cloud Sweater (with mohair added) have been SO popular @petiteknit patterns on Ravelry! Not to mention the Sophie Hood!! We love this yarn from Denmark! CaMaRose sure knows its purples from brights to earthy and shown here are more variations. So pretty💜💜💜! #camarose #camarosesnefnug #camarosesnefnugnatur #camarosesnefnugwatercolor #purpleconvert #petiteknits #ravelrypattern

We have nearly 20 shades of the little sister to @wooldreamers Mota in the store and it’s called Cautiva! Finally got a chance to swatch as the label says US size 1.5-6!! I used a 3 and 6 and both swatches look and feel fantastic! Couple ideas here for some cute spring knitwear 🤗. @lilalu72 sweet pullover called Bergliebe and an eyelet vest that would be so perfect this time of year called Sencha Vest by @trustthemojo on Ravelry. Cautiva is SUCH a sweet yarn. We have it on line and in the shop now! #wooldreamerscautiva #wooldreamers #spanishwool #bergliebesweater #senchavest #springknitting
