This weekend is Local Yarn Store Day - an event created to give knitters and crocheters an excuse to show their local yarn store a little extra love and attention (and sales) which is especially nice during a historically slow time of year for yarn shops.

But I also want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to all of you who have supported Crazy for Ewe over the years. From Duffy, Mary, and Shelly, who were among the first through my doors back in 2004 to Rita, Ellen,

Babies don’t get much of a say in this matter, but if they did, they would ask for soft merino wool and wool blends.
New parents often shy away from wool though. Many are afraid of allergies to start, and they want easy-care. I mean what new parent has time to hand wash baby clothes???

When we think of warm weather knitting, cotton is the first fiber that comes to mind. It’s soft, absorbent, and comfortable against your skin. But knitting with cotton is a different experience than knitting with wool.
There are lots of different kinds of cotton yarn that will each give their own results. But, armed with an understanding of cotton yarns in general and the different styles of cotton yarn, you can create stunning garments and accessories you’ll love all year long.
