Things We Like: One-Ball Shawl Kits

November 24, 2017

We're all about shawls and we especially love one-ball shawl kits! They're perfect for travel and there are only a couple of ends to weave in when you're done. Here are a few of our favorites.

Paint is soft, machine washable and has beautiful colorways! The three shawl patterns above call for one ball each (note: the pattern on the left is a crochet pattern!). There are also two poncho patterns that call for two balls.

One touch and Albina becomes a must have! Super soft and super snuggly - you'll never want to take this shawl off!

The Zig Zag Triangle Shawl is made using Transitions Tweed, a DK weight cotton/acrylic blend. It's a generous sized shawl - 660 yards are packaged in a handy clear pouch with a pull through hole for the yarn.

Fashion Box 2 is soft acrylic/mohair blend that's packaged in an easy to carry box.

The Sfumato Shawl calls for Sfumato, a 100% cotton worsted weight yarn.

For all of the above, the pattern(s) is included with the yarn. These one ball shawl kits make perfect gifts too!

Things We Like: Reusable Shopping Bags

November 20, 2017

Don't you hate it when you're out shopping and you realize you forgot a bag? Stuff a reusable shopping bag in your purse or backpack and you'll always have one handy! Plus, they're a stylish and sustainable alternative to paper bags. Here are a few of our favorites.

Dert Bags are super cute animal inspired bags. Unzip and unfold to use as a bag. Refold and stuff when you're done! These look adorable hanging on a backpack too!

Love alpacas? This cute Baggu Alpaca Shopping Bag holds 2-3 more than a traditional grocery bag!. It folds up nicely into it's own pouch so you can slip this easily into your purse or tote.

Show your ImagiKnit pride with the ImagiKnit Reusable Shopping Bag!

Things We Like: Lotion Bars

November 17, 2017

Lotion bars are a staple in our project bags and purses. We just love how the bars melt with body heat to keep our hands soft and well moisturized without leaving a residue or feeling greasy. The scented ones are great for a little aromatherapy moment during the day. You can also make your home smell wonderful by melting a bit in a fragrance melter (the small ceramic melting pots). They're travel-friendly too!

Here are a couple of our favorites.

LaviShea Lotion Bars are made under Fair Trade using unrefined shea butter, organic coconut oil, 100% natural soy and botanical and essential oils.

Love Leche Lotion Bars are made from beeswax, coconut and almond oils infused with Certified Organic Calendula flowers locally grown in the Southwest and essential oils. We carry two sizes: 2.5 oz (shown above) and also 0.5oz Anywhere Balms. These pocket sized tins are great lip balms.

Treat yourself or someone special to soft and healthy hands!

Things We Like: Addi FlexiFlips

November 14, 2017

Do you find standard DPNs too rigid and cumbersome? Check out the Addi FlexiFlips!

Addi FlexiFlips are 21cm circulars (3.5" tips with 1" cord) that act as flexible double pointed needles - genius! Distribute stitches over two needles and knit with the third - so easy and comfortable.

They feature an Addi Turbo Rocket tip and an Addi Turbo tip so you'll always have the right needle when you need it.

Do you want to see these in action? Check out this video.

Things We Like: Young and Lang Pattern Booklet

November 09, 2017

What's better than a one-skein pattern? A one-skein pattern using super bulky yarn that you can whip out in a couple of hours, of course!

Lang Young is a super soft, super chunky 100% merino that keeps it's shape well when worked up and is available in fun, colorful colorways.

The beautiful cowl pattern shown above is one of seven patterns in Lang Young Booklet 85. All patterns call for Young. The pattern booklet is only $2.99! Seven patterns for $2.99 - can you believe it?!?

In addition to the cowl shown above, the booklet contains an adorable one-skein hat pattern (pattern 06):

We really love the giant cowl pattern (pattern 03). This pattern for this statement piece calls for 5 skeins of Young goodness.

Other patterns in the booklet include a dickey (yes - these are making a comeback!), cowl (pattern 05), hat (pattern 04), scarf (pattern 07).

These are fun, fast projects that you'll enjoy making and absolutely love wearing.
