Here’s a sneak preview of the “Times Square Hat” pattern in Plymouth Baby Alpaca Grande by Celia Morgan, coming to your inbox in the January 2012 newsletter:
Our slightly off-gauge sample also demonstrates the importance of gauge swatches: the sample for a adult size hat pattern fits a 3 year old perfectly for just being half a stitch per inch too tight!
This winter we are offering four fantastic sweater classes. Each sweater can be customized to your size and style. All four classes welcome beginning sweater knitters looking to make their first sweaters as well as more experienced knitters who want to learn new techniques and designs!
