Alpine Bloom Hat
This delicious little hat is the perfect jumping off point for your colorwork journey. Teacher Julie Van Norden will explore holding the yarns in one hand as well as two hands.

Basic Socks on DPNs
Our mothers (and their mothers) knew this sock by heart, with its vertical heel flap, turned heel, picked up gussets and grafted toe. For many of us, it’s the first sock we learned and our point of departure into the ever widening world of socks. While we love some of the new approaches, we return again and again to this straightforward, comfy basic. Once you understand its simple structure, improvise to your heart’s content.

Felix Cardigan
The idea of knitting a sweater can feel completely daunting to a lot of knitters. Knitting a sweater from the top-down is a great place to start. Once you learn this method of sweater knitting, you’ll come back to it time and time again. The Felix Cardigan is worked top-down, so the length is easily adjustable and the eyelet raglan is a great intro to lace knitting!

Pam will be knitting her Ranunculus using our new Sandnes Garn Line!
