Curious about why we participate in Plaid Friday? Here’s a little behind the scenes of how this event came to be one of our favorite days in Old Town! Can’t wait to see you all on Friday!
Let’s check in with the yarnistas and see what they’re stitching up! #WIPwednesday #workinprogress #getstitching #shopalxva #otboutiques
Designer @lavanyapatricella collaborated with @manosdeluruguayyarns to create a collection of new patterns for Fall 2025. We love how she pairs unexpected colors together and how her stitches show off the unique qualities of different fibres. And, we love her for her love of brioche–like in the Boxy Brioche Pullover and Two by Two Beanie! Her hat and socks patterns would knit up into cozy holiday gifts, if you’ve looking for a little inspiration, check it out on the Captain’s Log!

Happy #MustMakeMonday! We`re loving Valley Rooves by Marina Skua . This pattern will keep you on your toes with its unusual construction and squishy cables. We had to cast it on in our newest arrival from Jill Draper, Amalgam! Check it out on the blog and be sure to stop by and squish Amalgam – a Targhee & Welsh Mountain Black yarn sourced from a farm in New York state!
