Countrywool

We now have a group! COUNTRYWOOLERS on Facebook has been created. Facebook has become a changed place for information sharing, and the group format will allow my daily posts about free patterns and knitting, spinning and crocheting tricks to reach all of you all the time. All are welcome in the group format, just click to join. We are also somewhat "shielded" from the general public, so feel free to chat more in this "safer" environment. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1454863337964679/?source_id=164721643554884

A new sock pattern is brewing. Hygge Socks, to match last years’ Icelandic Hygge Sweater pattern, are waiting to be born using the colors in the illustration as inspiration. Look for this new pattern to arrive in a couple of weeks. Want to KnitALong? There will be a class set up to make these socks in 2 weeks. http://countrywool.com/kits_patterns/swters.htm... #simplicity #icekandichyggesocks #durasport #galwaysportwool #knitting #handknitting #hudsonvalley #SOShat #ultraalpacalight #learntoknit #knittingteacher #knitalong #countrywool

Did you love Bernie Sander's Mittens? Although the original pair was made from a recycled sweater, you can knit the look. Aran weight yarn will give the closest gauge match, so we recommend LANALOFT https://countrywool.com/BUY_lanaloft.htm or LAMB'S PRIDE https://countrywool.com/BUY_lambspride.htm worsted yarns from Brown Sheep Company. Free pattern!!! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bernies-mittens

The first week of charity knit mittens. I can knit a pair in an evening’s worth of Netflix binge watching using #10 double points and bulky wool. Looking forward to knitting even more to donate!
