What else can you do but knit?


Here in Pennsylvania, we've got the singular pleasure of being home to what might be the most famous rodent in the world. Punxsutawney Phil, prognosticator of all prognosticators, saw his shadow yesterday, folks. We know what that means, right?

6 more weeks of winter. 6 MORE WEEKS OF WINTER, PEOPLE! How to take this news in stride? Throw yourself in front of oncoming traffic? Lock yourself in the closet and weep bitterly? NO! We're knitters! Pull out the good wool, grab some patterns (20% off!) and k-n-i-t the winter away. It's really the only civilized way to deal with defeat.

Perhaps you'd like to warm some feet for these remaining cold weeks? Lucky for you, we've just released the 2008 Sock Club patterns from the Vault. Not into sock knitting? (It's okay, I forgive you) Maybe slippers are more your style? How about working up a new pair of mittens to replace those that got buried under the snow pile? Perhaps someone you love needs a new hat? Or, start thinking ahead to those warm spring days that are coming (they are, I promise!) and work up a sweet little dress?

I can't make the snow melt, I can't make the mercury rise. But I can help you survive the rest of the winter with some fabulous patterns made even better with a sale! Now through Sat, Feb 7th, our entire pattern collection is 20% off. Shop Now!
