The end of summer is coming fast, and we’re getting our fall and winter knitting all planned out. This year, fibre space is dedicating the entire month of September to making sweaters. Bulky and fast, cozy cables and lace details are all ready to go on our needles as soon as possible. Check out what the staff is swatching for right now and join us! Let us know what you plan to make in September by sharing your project on social media using #fibrespaceWIP. Let’s get swatching!
