With four wildly different style genres to choose from or mix and match for your own take, there is something for everyone in this years issue.

Whats on the Needles at Tangled Yarns
My girls and I have been feeling the cold change this week. I had the sudden urge to knit up a pair of boot toppers / cuffs! I have used Sol Maldonao’s pattern Boot Cuffs Boho Style Boot Toppers {knit} and a skein of our Berroco Ultra Alpaca in #62110 – Tangelo. They are just perfect when I am wearing my favourite blue skirt and boots! After much pressure I finished a hat / beanie this week for each of the girls. My eldest was very particular and helped me select both the pattern and yarn. She chose Katherine Hat (Square or Mini-Slouch) by Salena Baca {crochet} and our Cascade 128 Superwash Chunky in black. Miss A, my youngest was a little easier, her only requirement was pink!! I couldn’t go past the super cute Candy Puffs Beanie by Unfuzzy Boutique {crochet} and since the yarn was to be held double, two shades of pink from our Cascade 128 Superwash Chunky – Cerise and Flamingo Pink. I must be honest and say that this wasn’t my favourite project to make, the end result is pretty adorable but I find super thick yarn and large crochet hooks to be slow and clumsy. I much prefer lighter weight projects where I can get some speed and rhythm up. The hats were well received and much loved which is what really matters!

Whats on the Needles at Tangled Yarns
Derrin has two finished cowls to share with us this week, both featuring some of our lovely Jo Sharp Tweed! First up we have Rathmore by Irishgirlieknits in our Jo Sharp Silkroad DK Tweed (Peppercorn) and Alpaca Kid Lustre. I just love the pink and gray combination! We no longer carry the Alpaca Kid Lustre, but a great substitute would be our Berroco Ultra Alpaca Light. Next we have a Turbulance Cowl by Laura Chau Jo Sharp Silkroad Aran Tweed (Posie and Beach). Derrin loved making this – it was a fun, quick project! She wasn’t able to squeeze it out of one ball of each colour, and needed to crack into the second ball of Posie and Beach for the cast off. We have some very exciting news to share with you all this week….. we are expecting a little Tangled Yarns baby! Our lovely Lauren and her wonderful husband Tam are expecting a little bundle of joy later this year. Being able to knit for her own little one, Lauren has had lots of fun picking out yarn and pattern combinations. The first off her needles is a Newborn Vertebrae by Kelly Brooker in our Malabrigo Sock (Indiecita) to keep bub’s back warm (and avoid getting the front of the cardigan messy!) And then, a little Milo vest by Georgie Hallam in Jo Sharp Silkroad DK Tweed (Treasure). This took less than a ball for the newborn size. How cute is that little cable running up the side? ! Expect to see lots of teeny, tiny knits in our ‘What’s on the needles’ in the coming months! I was running a little behind with my Mothers Day gifts so both of these were a tad belated…. As soon as I saw Pei by Michele Wang I knew it would be perfect for my mum. Because I like to tinker with patterns and I love stripes I have used two colours of our Fibre Company Acadia – Sea Lavender and Egret. For my mum-in-law I selected a great colourway from our Noro Taiyo collection – colour 29. The pattern is Modern Lace by Lion Brand. I loved making this scarf so much that I had to make myself one in our Cascade Baby Alpaca Chunky. Two skeins in colour 559 – Ice Flower and an evening produced a super quick, squishy and warm scarf! After some more instant gratification, a splash of colour and a way to tame my hair I grabbed a ball of our Noro Taiyo and made a colourful headband. The pattern, Unisex Dread Wrap Headband by Mama Pacha was quick and simple – exactly what I was after.

Kelly — Fri, 10 May 2013 07:03:13 +0000

With the lovely weather this week I have started to pull my hats out. One of my favourite hats from last winter was my Rikke Hat by Sarah Young {knit}. I used a single skein of our Malabrigo Arroyo in Purpuras, this year my colours have changed and I am drawn to the blues and greens….Reflecting Pool from our current shipment of Malabrigo is really calling to me, I think it may become another Rikke!

Whats on the Needles at Tangled Yarns
Another of our lovely customers popped in to share her beautiful finished project. This is Misty Meadow by Cindy Garland {knit} in our Malabrigo Sock and Ella Rae Lace Merino. Maureen has amazed me again with yet more finished projects. She did say that some of these had been on the needles for some time, it is comforting to know that it is not just me that has some long term works in progress!! First up is a stunning Hap Blanket by Ysolda Teague {knit} in our Cascade Eco Wool and a now discontinued Tweed. This one, is another yarn we discontinued some time ago but has certainly turned out beautiful! The pattern is Breiwick by Gudrun Johnston {knit}. For a splash of colour Maureen has used our Noro Silk Garden Sock to make these Ruffled Wristers by Katharine Hunt {knit}. Another wonderful regular, Rachel popped in this week to share some more of her recently finished projects. First up is this amazing, squishy Sunny Spread blanket by Ellen Gormley {crochet}. Rachel has used our Noro Taiyo for the ‘pops’ of colour and our Cascade 128 Superwash Chunky for the squares plus a border in our Cascade 220 Superwash Sport (held doubled, as it was just the perfect colour!). Also off the needles this week for Rachel is this lovely Cameo shawl by Paulina Popiolek in our Madelinetosh Pashmina. Unfortunately we are still waiting patiently for our current order from Madelinetosh to be completed but our new Road to China Light would be an ideal yarn for Cameo. One of our fantastic Tech Support regulars, Michelle brought in a finished scarf to share at her last class. This is Undulation by Natalie Servant {knit} in a beautiful selection of colour from our Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran collection. I might have a small addiction to these little flower slippers…three more pairs flew off my hook earlier this week! I even made a little boy pair, finished off perfectly with a couple of our buttons. If you missed the details last week, the pattern is Flower Slippers by Hayley Missingham. I have used our Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino in a selection of different colours. I think that is why I am so addicted…I keep finding different colour combos that I have to put together! To compliment a pair of the the flower slippers I also made a matching baby hat using my Little Set of Stripes pattern {knit}. Saturday night is unofficially ‘Cast On Night’ at Tangled Yarns (the night were we get sidetracked from our current projects by the new pretty yarns and patterns), and last Saturday night when Robin Ulrich released her new Greyhaven Hat {knit} it instantly jumped in my queue. A quick visit to the shop on Sunday morning meant that I was casting on by Sunday afternoon with our new Fibre Company Organik. Both the pattern and yarn were utterly divine and I have loved wearing my new hat every day this week.

Whats on the Needles at Tangled Yarns
One of our fantastic tech support students, Claudia has finished another great Autumn top. Pintuck T-Shirt by Lien Ngo in our Cascade Ultra Pima. The wonderful Rachel popped in earlier this week to share a very special gift she has finished. This beautiful blanket is Tweed Baby Blanket by Jared Flood in our Berroco Ultra Alpaca. The colour combination is just perfect! Eggshell, Slate & Winter White. Kim fell in love with this colour in our Malabrigo Arroyo as soon as it arrived! She finally decided on the perfect project…Arabesque by Amy Curletto. Alice has been busy over the past few weeks, first off the needles is this simply stunning Roxborough Dolman by Courtney Kelly in our Cascade Ultra Pima Fine. The cotton makes this a very versatile top to wear in our warm climate and the oversize nature of the pattern allows for adding layers underneath in the cooler months (perfect with skinny jeans!). Next Alice finished this gorgeous little cardi for a last minute birthday present…finished with just enough time to block and gift wrap!! The pattern is Granny’s Favourite by Georige Hallam. Alice chose our beautiful Cascade Eco Alpaca for its buttery softness and the soft silver grey should match most outfits. This is the size three and used just under 2 skeins. Next up is a big sister version in a size eight!! With the days cooling I needed to make a new kindy cardigan for my littlest one. Alice and I had a giggle as we both came into the shop on the same Saturday a few weeks ago with the same pattern in mind! For my Granny’s Favourite by Georige Hallam I opted for our new Cascade 220 Superwash Worsted in a cheery yellow. To adjust for the slightly thicker yarn and the 4.5mm needles I knitted a size four with the size five length for my almost five year old miss. For that instant splash of colour to my wardrobe I couldn’t go past our new Fibre CompanyAcadia in Kelp. This is the lovely Downton Cowl by Shannon Cook. I have a few friends expecting new babes so decided to whip up a couple of pairs of little booties to have ready. These super sweet little booties are Flower Slippers by Hayley Missingham in our Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino. They are a little addictive to make….

Whats on the Needles at Tangled Yarns
Kim has finished yet another amazing shawl this week….Metalouse by Stephen West in our Noro Taiyo Sock and our Road to China Light. I am totally smitten by this shawl, both the colours and how soft it is! Lauren is heading off to Victoria soon and wanted to make something for the lovely friends who are accommodating them during the visit. This is Nola Cloche by Hilary Smith Callis in our Cascade 128 Superwash Chunky. Super cute!!! Derrin has been working with some of our extra special Fibre Company Road To China Light, this is Aroura Shawl by Karalee Harding. The combination of the Road to China Light and the different textures in the shawl make it just divine! Anita is ahead of the game and has her mums Mothers Day gift finished weeks early. This is a stunning Entrelac Scarf by Allison LoCicero in our Noro Silk Garden. I am sure her mum will adore it! My little ones best friend is expecting a new sibling any day now and I couldn’t resist the excuse to knit a teeny tiny hat…this is my Little Set of Stripes pattern with a twist! I have held our Cascade 220 Superwash Sport held together with our Debbie Bliss Angel for a subtle halo to the hat. My week needed a splash of colour and this colour {#272} of our Noro Kureyon was just screaming out to me. I opted for a quick and funky Granny Cowl. I didn’t use a specific pattern but was inspired by several Crocheted Granny Cowls on Ravelry. My version is crocheted flat with chain loops on one side and buttons on the other.

Another busy week with more goodies flowing through the doors! Queensland school holidays are coming to an end and that means I will loose my little helpers….my eldest was such a great help this week and managed to bar-code over 200 balls of Biggan DK Merino for me. Our classes continue to be hugely popular and in many cases fully booked weeks and weeks in advance. We are busy working on our next Class Calendar release and hope to continue to offer you more exciting class options.
The Simple Things
The latest issue of the delicious The Simple Things has hit the shop floor – Issue 08. Issue 08 is a feast for the eyes with food, interiors, gardening, travel and well being including how to mix market finds with family treasures, how to grow your own tomatoes, expert planting advice for herbs and plenty of delicious recopies to share with friends. From The Simple Things…. Friending and following are fun, but no substitute for flesh-and-blood intimates. No stately pile will ever be as quirky as simpatico as your own gaff. Hyped new restaurants can’t compete with home-cooked platters drizzled with love. And a spontaneous outing in the fresh air can yield as many lifelong memories as a long-haul holiday. This April, make sure that you look ahead, look on the bright side, but most of all look in the right place!

A Fine Romance It is an age old story, girl meets gossamer, cloud-soft fibres such as the super kid mohair and silk in the Debbie Bliss Angel yarn, and falls in love with knitting! Angel Soft and light as a feather, Angel is a sublime blend of Super Kid Mohair and Silk that creates a gossamer fibre just right for delicate romantic designs.

Maureen continues to amazing me with her projects, another two off the needles this week! First up she has finished a Summer Waves Cardi by Vera Sanon {knit} in our Cascade Ultra Pima. This is an ideal little cardi for this time of year when the days are still so lovely but sometimes you just need that extra layer. After some tinkering Maureen also finished this stunning Jovia by Corrian Ferguson {knit}. Although the pattern only requires one skein of yarn Maureen found she was running short so had to pull back a few times to get it just right as she had one lone skein of our Madeline Tosh DK from a shipment last year. Over the Easter break Amanda popped in to share a finished sweet little Jane by Georgie Hallam {knit} in our Cascade Ultra Pima. Our wonderful Derrin has been gift knitting and couldn’t resist trying out some of our new Noro Nadeshiko! This is a large squishy Drop Stitch Cowl by Abi Gregorio {knit}. Kim spotted a quick hat that I whipped as a gift just before Easter and thought it would be the perfect hat for her daughter. The pattern is Puffer Hat by Adina Volokitkin {crochet} and Kim has used our Cascade 128 Superwash Chunky. One of my cousins welcomed a new addition into their family last week. The moment I heard the fantastic news that the baby was on the way I cast on a tiny little Milo by Georgie Hallam {knit}. I have kept it simply by leaving out the cables and using our Jo Sharp Silkroad DK in Fleece. Perfect for a little boy! When we received our first shipment of the luscious Malabrigo Silkpaca I knew I had to make something in Frank Ochre and Polar Morn…. Over the long weekend I managed to cast of Featherweight Cardigan by Hannah Fettig {knit} and I simply adore it! This is at least the second time I have made Featherweight and I am certain it won’t be the last time….especially with the divine fabric created by our Silkpaca.

Greyhaven Cowl

Saturday 6 April
12noon – 3pm

Greyhaven from Robin Ulrich….

Ward off the chill with either of Greyhaven’s size options — the cozy, one-skein neckwarmer version, or the luxurious versatility of the slouchy style. Either way, written and charted directions, plentiful photos and helpful tips included in the pattern for newer knitters make Greyhaven an enjoyable knit and a speedy solution for last-minute gifting.

Inspired by the lush imagery of J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings series, the design is based on a simple arched, leafy stitch pattern with it’s gracefully sculpted shape worked seamlessly into a lovely layering piece.

The smaller size is easy to tuck into a coat collar, and the slouchy version can be worn many ways including draped simply around the neck, folded over double, pulled up as an impromptu hood or pinned closed, and makes an especially nice gift when presented with a pretty brooch.

Cost

$40.00 per person
{3 hour lesson}
plus supplies

Requirements
Please note that this is an intermediate course.
Prior experience in casting on, knitting & purling is required.
