New Rowan Kits, I Heart the 80s Socks, Craftvent!
|
We're wishing a very Happy Birthday to our dear friends across the pond at Rowan... the big 4-0! We are celebrating in true Rowan style this year! As part of their 40th Anniversary celebration, Rowan has launched a new Flagship program, and we are honored to be included, as one of the first Rowan Flagship stores! Come visit us in person, and see our newly unveiled Rowan Room - all things Rowan, all the time!
If you aren't able to make a trip to our shop in the near future, we are happy to bring the Rowan celebration to you! We have brand new kits, featuring Rowan's Fall 2018 collection - new yarn, new colors, and new pattern booklets! And, make sure to keep an eye on our Instagram next Wednesday, September 19th - Rowan will be taking over our Instagram account for the day! Get ready for a behind the scenes peek at the brand we all know and love!
We've got our party hats on, and are ready to keep the celebration going! Perfect for fall knitting, we've crafted 6 brand new kits for your knitting pleasure!

We're letting our nostalgia take the wheel this week! Join us, as we take a ride with Marty McFly and Doc back in time... to the 80s! Cruisin' through time in the DeLorean time machine, we're catching a ride in Jake Ryan's little red Porsche and Cameron Frye's (okay, technically his dad's) showstopping Ferrari. What better way is there to relive the glory days, you might ask? Why, with yarn, of course!
In homage to 3 of our all-time favorite 80s movies, we've partnered with Lorna's Laces to bring you 3 exclusive colors, dyed to perfection, and kitted up in our I Heart the 80s Sock Kits! We've paired 2 skeins of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport with the Doppelganger sock pattern, designed by Verybusymonkey, a bag of popcorn, and a box of candy, festively packaged in...you guessed it, a popcorn bucket - all that you'll need for a cozy (or should we say crafty?) night in!
All that's left to do is choose your kit! Travel back in time with Great Scott!, make a wish to knit with Sweet Sixteen, or play hookie with Bueller, Bueller, Bueller! And, if you're ready to reminisce, head over to the blog for Kyle's take on each of our faves!

We're closing in on Craftvent's impending arrival - only 78 days left in our countdown! This year's box is sure to please, with a gorgeous design by Joji Locatelli (KAL) and Linda Dean (CAL) and yarn from all of your favorite hand dyers - Anzula, Hedgehog Fibres, La Bien Aimee, Lorna's Laces, Madelinetosh, and Manos Del Uruguay! Each piece of Craftvent, from the needles, to the pattern, to the yarn, comes from a woman-owned business! That's right, Jimmy (a.k.a. Laura) wanted to make sure that, being a woman-owned business ourselves, we were supporting fellow women in the fiber arts industry!
Order your Craftvent Calendar today, and join each of these fiber titans in their quest to support their fellow women of fiber, including YOU!

Oh, and in case you didn't know... Rowan worked with Kaffe to create 8 new colors in the Felted Tweed line! It's a rare occurrence when an artist of his renown is involved in the creation of colors like this, and we're itching to get them on our needles!
