Knitters like to knit. We like to make stuff. Actual stuff. That we can wear. That's the part we like. Knitting. Everything else is kind of a waste of time, or so it seems. Swatching, finishing, blocking. Especially blocking. We all admit that a lace shawl needs blocking to open up the yarnovers and even out the decreases, but a sweater? Why would you want to spend time blocking sweater pieces or scarves? What's blocking ever done for you anyway? I hear you. But if you'll give me five minutes, I'll give you five good reasons to block your knitting.
Blocking can seem like a big undertaking but like everything, the right tools make it a snap. I'm super excited to have new and improved Cocoknits Knitters Block. This great kit has everything you need to block anything you knit. They're coming in next week, but if you pre-order or purchase by 31 July, you'll save $10. Read more about it here, and order your kit so you'll be sure to get one!
I look forward to seeing you in the shop and around the table - you are always welcome here.

Hi Ellen, I was in your shop in May, bought a skein of Noro and have finished my project. Read your recent newsletter and am interested in the Brickless Shawl, unfortunately I can’t make the first Friday as I am in Canada but returning to our boat the following week. Poor timing! Is there anyway you can send me images of the colours available in Lux Fingering?
Thanks for any help/ advice. Should be back in Solomons around the 3rd- 4th and will drive over to your shop soon after returning. Happy to hear you got your wine license!
