It's the hottest month of the summer, so how about cooling off with a lovely shade of green with hints of gray? This month's Toshstrology 2016 installment, Virgo, is a peacefully perfect verdigris hue to coordinate with this Earth sign, as cool and creamy as the porcelain skin of a goddess! It's ideal for you calm-seeking Virgos, especially in the back-to-school season, when your analytical and hard-working nature kicks into high gear! Pick up a skein in one of your favorite Tosh bases and get to work on your first project of the fall! | |
Monika whipped up a Gilded Frame shawl with just 2 skeins of A.S.A.P. - one in this month's color and one in Gemini - and it was done in the blink of an eye! And Chris knitted up one of his own amazing designs, Hippie Swamp Witch, with 1 skein of Virgo and 1 of Leo in Pashmina! Whatever you choose, don't forget one of this month's special pouches from Chicken Boots! The Virgo Stitch Marker Pouch is perfect for small sundries, and the Virgo Wristlet will carry a pint-sized project on-the-go! | |
| Now, your yarnoscope for this month: Virgo, you're typically shy, so now's the time to get out of your comfort zone. It's Fall Festival season, so how about entering one of your knitted or crocheted creations in the county fair? With your skill and attention to detail, you're sure to win the blue ribbon! And, if you're looking for a Toshstrology pairing, some "compatible" signs (and colors!) for Virgo are Cancer, Gemini, and the upcoming Libra! |

Abracadabra, Presto - you made nearly all of our Rowan Magic Kits disappear! Thank you to everyone who made the first round of Magic Kits such a success, and allowed us to donate a significant amount to Spellbinders - but we're not finished yet! If you missed your chance, never fear: we've performed a bit of our own magic to whip up some more Spellbinders Kits using Cascade 220 Fingering! Let's keep the magic (and those donations) going and support our local libraries! |

This month's Beanie Bag was all about plants - and their fantastic fibers! Packed with samples of Fibra Natura Flax, Berroco Mykonos, Classic Elite Firefly, and Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo, the goal of the August bag was to get your fingers acquainted with some new friends and help you make some pretty knit and crochet coasters, too!
Along with 15-yard samples of each yarn, each bag included a sample of Soak wash and a round Needle Sizer from Knitter's Pride that's just the perfect size for tucking into your notions pouch or hanging around your neck!
Check out the video below for the full reveal!
