Never Not Knitting Window Display At Loops!


This is so cool I just had to share it with you!

A few weeks back Shelley, the owner of Loops yarn shop in Tulsa Oklahoma, asked my permission to use my Haltermelon and Cedar Leaf Shawlette pattern pictures for a front window display for her shop.
Of course I said YES!

Above are the pictures she sent me of her new window displays.

You can't tell from the pictures but these photo banners are 4 feet across by 6 feet tall!
How awesome! I so wish that I could see the displays in real life!

I cant tell you how amazing it feels to have a yarn shop prominently feature my designs like this.
It truly is an honor! Thank you Shelley!

If you live close by, please check out Loops! You can find more info about the shop by clicking here. Loops stocks all of the
Never Not Knitting designs in print if you'd like to see my patterns in person.

Cosette In Malabrigo




I just wanted to share with you this lovely version of my Cosette Wrap knit out of Malabrigo Worsted.
This was made up by my lovely friend Claire to be included in the Never Not Knitting trunk show.

What a wonderfully cozy sample this is. Malabrigo Worsted is such a soft wool and reasonably priced as well!
The body of the wrap is knit in the Paris Night colorway and the edging is in Polar Moon.

If your local yarn shop is on my trunk show schedule, you'll get to try on this cozy wrap for yourself!

New Pattern Store!



As you might have noticed lately, I've been making a few changes around here!
One of the things I've added is a new and improved pattern store that enables you
to purchase several patterns at once instead of one at a time.


View the pattern store tutorial below.




I hope that you enjoy this change! :)

New Socks




I'm knitting myself some new socks! They are really fun too!
The pattern is the Snicket Socks pattern and can be found for free here.

Of course I am using my lovely "Never Not Knitting Green" Wool Candy
yarn to make this project.

I just love the way it looks knitted up. The shades are blending very well in my opinion.
The little bit of variegation makes it almost look like its sparkling.

I cannot wait to wear them!

Psssttt.. The "NNK Green" limited edition colorway is now SOLD OUT!
But you can still preorder it here if you'd like to snag some for yourself from the next dye batch!
