  • Local Yarn Shops: My Home Away from Home (plus an LYS $5 rebate!)

    Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I have so much to be thankful for this year. I have a terrific job, lovely friends and family, a nice home, and a growing yarn stash. :) Seriously, though, I have had a fabulous year. Here's the story. I moved from Seattle to Spokane last August, leaving behind a gaggle...

  • I Need a Hat: The Knitted Slouch

    I am NOT one of those people who looks great in hats, especially the beanie-type hat. I wear those hats in the winter when I have too, but I much prefer the beret style hat or the slouch hat. It was in the 30s this weekend in Spokane—it's getting hard to remember those 95-degree days when all...

  • Knit up a Blizzard (Scarf), Plus a Free Edging Pattern!

    A note from Kathleen: I'm always inspired by each new issue of PieceWork magazine, and the November/December issue doesn't disappoint. It hits newsstands on November 3, and I think there are some projects in there that will have you running to your local yarn shop to pick up supplies for holiday...

  • Fair Isle Fever: The Ivy League Vest

    Sailing the Fair Isles In my knitting, I tend to get inspired by something and just jump right in, whether or not I know how to do certain techniques. I figure that hands-on is the best way to learn, so I go for it. Fair Isle intimidated me more than usual, though, so I found a beginning class and signed...

  • We Ask the Editors: What Are You Proudest of Making?

    Do you ever wonder what the experts are proudest of making? I thought it might be fun to know what the editors of Interweave Knits , PieceWork , Interweave Crochet , and Spin-Off thought were their finest craft pieces--so I asked them to share the best of the work of their hands with us. The one knit...

  • Knitting An Heirloom (in just two weeks!)

    Note from Sandi: The staff projects are always one of my favorite parts of the new issue! I love seeing how each staff person takes a single idea and interprets it in her own way. In the Summer 2009 issue of Interweave Knits , the assignment was to "knit an heirloom"--not an easy assignment...

  • Plan A Finishing Party!

    Note from Sandi: My boss is a knitter. (How many folks get to say that?) She also used to own a local yarn shop. She has also worked on Interweave Knits magazine in some capacity since the very beginning--now she is our publisher! (She's also a weaver and a crocheter and a spinner. Does she sleep...

  • Tips & Tricks For Twisted Stitches

    Red Scarf Project Connections Scarf (Try saying THAT title three times fast!) It's true that the Connections Scarf I designed for the Red Scarf Project was my first cable-knitting project ever. I've managed to avoid cables until now, thinking that wrangling the cable needle was just too much...
