Teaching the Teachers

"Teaching the Teachers"...
How to knit.

The kitchen was "full-up" as the "School of Knitting" here (see the fishes swimming around their heads?) as a group of Madison Student Teachers are learning to knit. You can never learn too many skills! Way-to-go! Now go forth and spread that knittin' addiction! :)

Conquering Knitted Mitten Successes


Way-to-go ladies!! You have conquered the 2-ST mittens! Now you can make some for the whole family! *Eep! Don't hurt me!*

Mitten Class & Fair Isle Sweater in the works

We had a 2 stitch mitten class today with teacher Melissa Mathay (picture above helping a student). Below are a few of the other students we had today.
Below is Rebecca Koscik, modeling the first sleeve to her Fair Isle sweater made out of Smart Superwash wool yarn, the way her 6 year old son likes to model it. Cute!
Here we can see the detail and work involved. WOW!! We cannot wait till the rest of it gets knit up, but we figure that won't be for another couple of months yet. It'll be ready for next Fall!

Judy's Beanie


Judy came in to the shop thinking her baby cap, knit out of Eggplant and Green Bambou Soft, was gonna drown in the Frog Pond. Karen was able to help her bring it back from the brink and finish it.

Can you tell she is one proud knitter?

What an accomplishment Judy! Show that pattern who's boss and make another!
