Tomorrow brings the big reveal of our fall '09 line in our newsletter and on the web site. That also means that it was time to get it all up in Ravelry. Cirilia's logged a jillion hours (in the past 2 days) doing just that . I have to admit that we are… Continue reading Fall ’09 is up and running

Blocking Part Two, where Cirilia and Norah answer your questions
It was quite thrilling to read all of your comments on blocking. Many of you are in agreement with us that it is a vital part of the knitting process.

More excess - this time in the form of knit-in tucks. Don't you love that Eleanor can knit too? We chose a different photo for the book - one that focuses more on the vest, but I am still enamored of this shot. Adina Klein helped us out with the styling for this story - that's the… Continue reading tuck

Norah Gaughan volume 4 is printed and shipping to stores! We'll be showing it on the Berroco website and launching all of the Spring 09 booklets in the Knitbits newsletter starting January 16th, but meanwhile, I thought (I was hoping) you might want to see a bit more. Doled out in moderation, of course. … Continue reading pucker
