We'll Miss You

Judy H. finishes her dreamcoat after months of painting with her yarn. We will miss Judy and her many talents as she retires to the Cape. Thanks, Judy, for sharing your stitches with us.

Beautiful Colorwork

Wow, look at these awesome fingerless mitts made by Becky and Amy. It's the Composed Mitts pattern from Interweave Knits, Fall 2007 issue. Knit in 6 colors, this pattern involves some stranded colorwork with bobbles, ribbing, and garter stitch and a gusseted thumb for a perfect fit. Just beautiful ladies!

Laura Has Left the Building


In my four years at Ewenique Yarns, I have gained so much as a knitter and as a person. As we all know, 130 N. Bond Street is more than just a "yarn shop". It is a community of warm, caring and intelligent women sharing their lives, loves and losses. We are brought together from all corners through our mutual desire to knit, and find we have more in common than just our craft. To all those I have taught to knit, I hope you continue on. You have learned a lifelong skill. To all my fellow knitters, the best thing you can do is to share your knowledge and teach someone new to knit! As for me, I am busy making lemonade with the lemons life has given me at the moment. I promise to keep in touch with everyone, and you will see me occasionally on a Saturday or as life permits. Keep working on your Hanne's, two socks on two circulars, mitered squares and other projects. Maggie, I can't put into words what your friendship means to me. Simply put - I love you - You Rock - Peace Out - Laura
