Happy #ScholarlySunday, Stitchers! This week I want to introduce you the pattern book My City, My Stitches. It is from designer Jenny Ansah, an Afro-Finnish knitwear designer who lives in East Helsinki. Her book includes 15 relaxed, urban knits inspired by the character of each area of her multicultural home in East Helsinki. The pattern collection is a nice blend of simple garments that are quick to work up, and highly textured ones as well. This one is available in store or in our online capsule collection and might be a good one to pick up before our Miss Babs pop-up event on September 25-26!

Just Landed: Rosários 4 Canhamo Tweed! DK weight WASHABLE tweed!! Part of Rosários 4’s Ecofriendly collection, this blend of soft Merino wool, hemp (cânhamo in Portuguese), alpaca, and viscose rayon has a gorgeous tweedy look, a little bit of shine and all the durability of a workhorse washable wool. It’s perfect for cool-season sweaters and cardigans and even washable makes for children and pets!
Will you be joining us for Alexandria days September 18-20? In 1959, the city council created a promotion called “Alexandria Days”—a collaboration between the city and Old Town merchants designed to encourage shopping in downtown Alexandria during the hot summer months. Since we now have the amazing Sidewalk Sale tradition, we brought the event back to life last fall!
This year, Alexandria Days will be September 18-20! Here’s how to join the fun. Grab a passport online or at a participating shop. Then, spend a gorgeous fall day in Old Town exploring boutiques and shops while you collect stamps and gifts with purchase, and check out in-store experiences at each stop. See the full list of participating shops on the Alexandria Old Town Boutique Community site!
Here at fibre space, you’ll get a free Soak Wash packet with purchase of $25 or more, while supplies last! Soak’s no-rinse formula is gentle yet effective and works for hand washing or in your machine. Perfect for handmade items, wool sweaters, or delicate garments and accessories.
Today’s #FOfriday has a very special place in our hearts. Linda inherited this Tegna tee as a WIP from our dearest Alex. We love keeping Alex close to our hearts through stitching #LoveForAlex
This week in space join us to learn how to spin your own yarn, dive into crochet or knitting, or get personalized help on your current work in progress with an independent study!
