Huzzah! The Little Marion Farm is back for a new trunk show through June 4th. Located in Southern Maryland, The Little Marion Farm Yarns are all lovingly hand-dyed by Michelle Gasteen in her home studio. Michelle uses all incredibly soft non-superwash wools so that the natural fibers retain their integrity and character. You can go on a virtual tour of the show HERE and you can shop the show HERE.
Spring KAL Time! Join us as we knit the Sweet Vicious Top Together!
Melissa is using The Alpaca Yarn Company Halo Watercolors and Mariquita for her top and recommends you do the same! Swatching is happening now and the big cast-on party will be Wednesday, April 9 at 6pm!
Join us Wednesday evenings in April 7pm - 9pm to knit this super cute top!
Sweet Vicious is a shell tank that uses a variation on a smock stitch to create a luxurious and elegant fabric. It’s not hard to do, but it does require working with two yarns at once, so experience with stranded knitting is an asset.
The pattern offers two lengths, a crop version and a full length version that will hit the hips. The body is worked in the round, with bust increases, and then knit flat to the shoulders, which are joined using a three-needle bind off. The neck and hem are finished with an I-cord bind off.
A modification guide at the end of the pattern offers tips for adjusting the shaping by creating an A-line silhouette, an hour-glass silhouette and for adding width to the sleeves to create more of a tee shirt style.
It's Time to Whip Up A Yarn Storm!
My fellow Lovelies, pictured above are two photos of the bridge that spans the distance between Hampden and Remington. We think this bridge is looking a little bare as folks keep trading spray painted opinions. Our aim is to continue the conversation in the form of creative knitted and crocheted graffiti. We would love to add an arsenal of knitted and crocheted orange "F" Bombs with blonde fluffy fuses!
Any and all forms of stitchy participation are welcome and encouraged. If there is a particular statement you wish to add to our installation please do! We encourage you to use natural fibers so we can remain environmentally friendly with our display.
