In addition to being one of… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Robyn Chachula
Barrison’s Halloween Costume
Can you believe Halloween is only two weeks away? Barrison had no idea what she wanted to dress up as, at least not until she saw Heather Seratt's sketch of a skeleton costume.

Ashley’s Adventures in Knitting: Holiday Gift KAL
I've been dying to get my hands (or more accurately, my needles) on Berroco Kodiak, so I was thrilled that Aude was chosen as the project for our Holiday Gift Knit-Along!

Knitter’s Spotlight: A La Mode by Lori Versaci
With the name a la mode, it’s no surprise that Lori Versaci’s handknit sweater was actually inspired by a look on the runway at New York Fashion Week. It was few years back that she saw a metallic pullover sweater paired with a stiff, straight skirt. It looked like a kind of fashionable armor. Soon, Lori… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: A La Mode by Lori Versaci

Of course, she doesn’t mind slowing her needles to perfect a design. Karma Kables is a seamless, short-sleeve cardigan knit in Berroco Karma. While Linda claims she’s… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: Karma Kables by Linda Benne
Ashley’s Adventures in Knitting: Caley
I pretty much knew I wanted to knit Caley from the moment I saw it on our model last spring. It's the only garment designed with our new fall yarn Berroco Brio, and it was just the kind of mindless knitting I needed after (finally) finishing my Merle from our Knit with Norah KAL! I cast… Continue reading Ashley’s Adventures in Knitting: Caley
