There has not been an update to Susan’s since April, 2019 – still lots of good information there!

Susan’s yarn company – Barrett Wool Co.

Patty Lyons

Clara Parkes


Some of the Vendors we Encountered

Jill from JillyandKiddles –  A ”Launch Pad” Vendor – independent dyer from Rhode Island.


Shannon Welsh – Queen City Knitter – The woman who was mending jeans with decorative stitches and the “Bee” Kind t-shirt. Sells accessories on Etsy.


Michelle McCann – Knit Fit – Another launch pad vendor, selling kits with pattern and yarn for a hat, including bamboo circular needle, stitch counter, tapestry needle, row counter, stitch holder and scissors.


Karen Grover from Seven Sisters Arts. Lovely BFL yarns.


The Geeks – Lexie Bryan and Marsha Auguste – both have Etsy Shops

Lexie’s shop isn’t showing up on Etsy (it was there a few days ago)

Lexicorpetsy.com

Marsh Auguste


Knit Locally – Peggy Odick 

Gaithersburg, MD

Yankee Crush yarn (70% BFL 20% Silk 10% Cashmere) = beautiful yarn for colorwork


Morehouse Farm Merino

Errin Pirro and sister Hilary

This is where Linda found the 100% wool she needs for the Oranje sweater

This is a family owned business. We had fun talking to these young women about sheep shearing.


Sweater Sisters

They mainly sell kits, but also some yarn and dyes.

We spoke to Selena who told us about her two day process to dye some non-superwash yarn. She was selling a Fair Isle Hat kit with that beautiful yarn (look for a photo on our InstaGram).


Carolyn McKenna (Swift Yarns) – indie dyer from Queens – she’s been dying yarn in her basement for five years! Lovely yarn and some really cute kits on her website.


HOOOKED Yarns – they have recycled and plant based yarns.

The ones we noticed at VKL were 

Eucalyps (Eucalyptus) and Somen (cotton & recycled linen)


Patterns we seemed to see everywhere

Shifty by Andrea Mowry


Soldotna by Caitlin Hunter – We found a YouTube “Soldatnalong” – maybe that is why so many people were wearing it at VKL

Love Note by Tin Can Knits


RAVES & FAVES

Monica Grecco from Divine Yarn

Gifted us a skein of BIG Boucle – in Marquis (color)

54% mohair, 23% silk, 18% wool, 5% nylon


Wooden hexagonal needles in Cherry, Maple and Walnut from
Indian Lake Artisans

Townhouse Yarns – lovely shop in Dublin (that Linda coincidentally visited in September, 2019)

Where Pat discovered she could buy some Mohair to go with yarn she already had from Chasing Rabbits to make the Love Note pattern

Episode 18 - The Magic of Blocking15 Jun 202001:01:37
Episode 17 - Short Rows01 Jun 202000:39:19

Bea & Linda take the fear out of short rows!

Short Rows Definition: Short rows create vertical shaping in knitting. A short row is one in which you don't work to the end of the row; you stop and turn and work in the other direction. However, if you simply turn and start knitting in the other direction, your work will have a hole. The short row techniques are all methods to close that gap that is created by the turn.

Short Row Techniques:

Wrapless

Wrap & Turn

German

Yarnover

Japanese

Sunday

Shadow (aka Mother/Daughter or Twin)

Catch
