The pattern will be released in five segments every two weeks, and concludes August 25.As usual we’ll have refreshments and door prizes, as well as expert advice on hand. If you’d like to participate and can’t make the party, we can email you the pattern segments, or you can pick them up at the store.

If you’d like to sign up, stop by the store or give us a call. The full knitalong schedule can be found in our...
