My first blog entry!

I've been thinking about starting a blog for some time now. Even my son has a blog! I guess it seems like a great way to be in daily contact with people who want to stay updated with goings on in the store.  I'll post regularly, especially when I have new classes, yarns or other events to share.

My entries over the next week will be all about quick knits. And when I say quick I mean 1 or 2 days of knitting and you're done! 

I started yesterday with a chunky seed stitch scarf. I used 2 skeins of Comfort Chunky from Berroco and doubled it up on a size 15 needle. 15 stitches all in seed stitch and by the end of the day I was done!  I'd say it took about 5-6 hours of interrupted knitting to complete it.  With projects like this one, you could knit gifts for your whole family between now and Christmas!

This morning I cast on for a men's ribbed cap in Ultra Alpaca. So far it's looking great! I'll post pictures tomorrow and update you on tomorrow's project!
