Just landed, Kinua Flamé! We are so excited to have this 100% hand spun, botanically dyed Fine Merino Wool from Peru. This family-owned company from Lima is bringing us incredible Peruvian fibre, dyed naturally with plant materials sourced from the Peruvian land. This unique yarn is bulky weight and works up quickly for holiday gifts and extra warm and squishy projects.

We’ve had lots of people asking about donating yarn & needles for our furloughed kniting classes. While we can’t accept donated supplies from your stash, we are partnering with Look Again @lookagainpob, who can! Donate your worsted weight yarns and needles and we’ll send our furloughed students there to snag great deals on discounted supplies. We are also opening up our donations for Learn to Knit Kits for furloughed workers as well, and you can find the link to donate those in our bio. Thank you all for your generous support! #governmentshutdown2025 #furloughedworkers #federalworkers #learntoknit #knittingforstressrelief #lookagain
Happy #toolstuesday! For all our shawl stitchers out there, we’ve just received a restock of our KnitPro wooden shawl pins in a bunch of colors and shapes. Use these gorgeous sticks to keep your shawl in place, pin it into a different shape around your neck or to close a cardigan. They are like adding a piece of jewelry to your look! #knitpro #shawlpin #handmadewardrobe #shawlknitting #shawl #shopalxva #otboutiques
Today’s #MustMakeMonday features two free patterns that you can make if you are planning to join us in supporting @knittherainbowinc to donate handmade garments for unhoused LGBTQ+ youth in our area. The Basketry Socks by Diane Psota & The Woodmother Scarf by Emma Olson are two great options. You can find a list of other free patterns at knittherainbow.org/volunteer-resources as well!
