Whether you show your fiber fandom with the woolly wonder Sheepleverse, or dive into history with the Curiosities collection, our project bags, totes, and hook and needle organizers are at the ready to keep your hobby happy.       Have you ever had to frog because you forgot a step several rows back? Or lost your spot because you dropped your magnet board or lost track with your highlighter tape? Instead of wrestling with paper, use the knitCompanion app. It keeps you on track so you can knit more and frog less. knitCompanion works with ALL your patterns and is available for Apple, Android, and Kindle Fire Devices               Are you feeling dis-GRUNT-eled about your stash? Are you browsing Insta-HAM looking for knitting inspiration? Is color "kind of a PIG deal" in your life? Oink Pigments offers over one hundred forty PIG-ture perfect colorways to make you SQUEAL with delight. For a limited time only, bring home the bacon with code KNITMORE and get fifteen percent off in-stock yarns and fibers at oinkpigments dot com. Shop soon, because these pigs will FLY!   The first time I saw a chain row counter, I thought "Hmm, that's nice, but I’ll  just mark my pattern".  But I inevitably forgot and spent more time re-counting my knitting than actually knitting!   Friend, do yourself a favor and put a chain row counter on that project (you can thank me later). You’ll always know exactly where you are and get to knit more - and stress less! No clicking, tallying, or waking your phone up every row.  Just knit!   Find your perfect counter at TWICESHEAREDSHEEP.COM   On the needles;(0:35) Gigi knitting at Jasmin’s : striped socks for Andrew.  Finished  Gigi: Meadowlands blanket 3.0 , Very potato chippy. . 4th triangle Gigi: finished a striped preemie hat.  Jasmin is nearly at the decreases on the Vertizontal Slouch hat #2 in some aged self-striping yarn Jasmin body is finished, fringe is in progress on her Piñata jacket by Quaylyn Stark Gigi cast on brown socks for Andrew  Jasmin cast on a Paton's “Must Have Cardigan” in Malabrigo “Bobby Blue” Jasmin: Racerback tank by Jessie Mae in ribbon LINK out of Tess ribbon   Events :(20:46) Cognitive Fiber Retreat in November J trip to Portland 6/10, NY from 6/21-6/28 Mother Knows Best: (23:04) Use Taxpayer funded public spaces!   When knitting attacks:(27:45) Gigi: Meadowlands out of Mandala J: Kept incorrectly establishing cables J: ribbon top physics The Winderfull!
