This week`s #toolstuesday goes out to our furry friends! Pet beds & toys by @shopsheepbyjgswitzer give our pet friends a cozy place to lie & play (instead of on our yarn). Pop them in the wash to keep fresh. Wool is durable, sustainable, and incredibly tempting for our furry friends.

Harrisville Nightshades + Spincycle Dream State are basically meant for each other so of course we had to choose Potato Vodka by @theacolman for #MustMakeMonday. The way the colors in Nightshades pick up the colors of Dream State couldn`t be better! And both yarns are entirely sourced and spun the United States!

It`s #ScholarlySunday! This week we are loving our season transitioning yarns and patterns. Today we are featuring Knitbot Linen by Hannah Fettig! This book is full of great patterns for transitioning seasons using linen. We`ll be casting these on in Antigone, a yarn made from flax grown in Normandy and dyed in rich jewel tones and incredible neutrals by De Rerum Natura of France. Shop Antigone in space or in our capsule collection online!

We had to get a bit of @knittingforolive #OnTheHook this week and the Warm Up Leg Warmers by @handmadebyhannalouise are the quick stitch fix we need! And don`t forget, while Knitting for Olive can`t ship to individuals due to tariffs, we`ve got plenty in stock in space and online!
