<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">After twelve years owning Patricia’s Yarns, I have
made the difficult decision to accept a full-time position at a New York
City-based textiles company. Although I am excited about my new career, I will
greatly miss Patricia’s Yarns and, especially, all of you. Patricia’s Yarns is
more than a local business, it is a wonderful community of the best people in
and around Hoboken. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

years in business, we will be holding our final sale. All merchandise will be
discounted, we will have treats, raffles, give-aways, and hugs (lots of hugs).
So stop in between now and April and save on all yarns, books, patterns,
needles, samples, and notions (hugs are free).

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Many people may speculate why I am leaving. I want to
be clear, it is not because of you (you are wonderful and have always supported
me); it is not because of rent (I signed a long-term lease); and it is not
because “Hoboken is not business friendly” as I was recently told (on the
contrary, Hoboken was the perfect place for my 27-year-old self to start a
retail shop). In short, I have accepted an incredible job that will allow more
nights and weekends with Adam and Grace (and Riley).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The colors are so beautiful! And choosing just one is really difficult. So when the Unicorn Tails were introduced last year - 52 yard "skein-ettes" of 30 favorite colors of MadelineTosh Merino Light - we were all very excited. Then Antonia Shankland introduced the Unicorn Tail Scarf - see below. We are truly in love!<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted to cast-on for quite some time but as expected something always became a bigger priority (baby blankets, wedding gifts, etc.). The time to cast on finally came this summer and I love this project! It is the perfect mix of mindless and interesting knitting and I love watching the hand-dyed color changes. This project is ideal for summer social knitting - you won't lose your place while knitting on the deck of your shore house. More importantly, at the end of Summer, if you do one color a day (my goal) you will be ready for fall with a fabulous and beautiful new scarf. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here is my progress so far...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div>
Another option on the project is the cowl which is 15 skeins and is the same concept with only five colors. </div>

Whichever you choose this is a really great summer project that will be so warm when cooler temperatures arrive. Summer is the perfect time to knit items for fall! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you need some ideas for what to make take a peek at some current projects being worked on in the shop. Here are a few lighter knits for the warmer months as well as a few projects in anticipation of cooler days ahead.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u>Baby Wrap Sweater</u> by Churchmouse Yarns and Teas</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This sweater is all knit in one piece out of fingering weight yarn and is available in two sizes, 6-12 month or 12-18 month. The knitting was perfect for summer days - semi-mindless as you work and adorable when finished. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><u>Beehive & Beehive Ox Cowl</u> by Jill Zielinski</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This infinity scarf is knit in the round so that it is completely reversible once finished and the beginning and end are grafted together. This is going to be a very cozy accessory for Fall days.</span><br />

Beth came by the other day with a pattern she wanted to knit for a friend as a shower gift. The pattern was <u><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/in-threes-a-baby-cardigan" target="_blank">In Threes: A Baby Cardigan</a></u> by Kelly Herdrich. If you are not familiar with it check it out as it is a great pattern. You can buy it in the shop through Ravelry In Store Sales.<br />

It is a short sleeve cardigan and goes from size 0-6 months to age 5 which is a generous size range for a pattern like this.<br />
<br />
Beth chose a Spud & Chloe Sweater in Turtle 7514 for hers and after she left I chose Spud & Chloe Sweater in Ice Cream 7500 to knit for my cousins baby Charlotte. I am doing the 12 months size so that she will get to wear it for more than a minute. So far it has been a very fast knit and I am excited about adding some fun buttons. My progress is pictured below:<br />

I think this will become a staple pattern in my repertoire as it really is such a great design. You can knit it a size larger so they can wear it like a tunic style vest and grow into it. Spud & Chloe Sweater is a great yarn choice as it is machine washable (and if you forget it in the dryer it should be ok). A great combination that makes a great sweater! pyknitshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02869059961748395103noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35629993.post-57669051891230813752015-03-07T10:53:00.002-05:002015-03-07T10:53:55.241-05:00Favorite PatternsWe all have our favorite patterns that we love to make as gifts or for ourselves (we tend to give knits away that we love to wear).

<br />
This pattern was the #1 pattern on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/" target="_blank">Ravelry</a> last year and it was designed by our friend, Antonia! I have 2 on display at the shop and have knit at least 5 of these as gifts and have one for myself. This is a great beginner to intermediate pattern that really can be done with almost any yarn.<br />

<br />
<br />
This baby hat pattern is so cute! The sizing is perfect for a newborn baby and the design is reversible which takes out guesswork. It looks great on wee ones and works up so quickly on a size 7 needle.<br />
<br />
The accompanying mitten pattern is also very cute and perfectly sized - great for a baby born in a cold climate.<br />
<br />

This baby blanket pattern is definitely a shop favorite. It is knit in Spud & Chloe Outer (machine wash & dry) yarn on a size US 15 needle so it can be finished pretty quickly. I have made and gifted 2 of these and we have another in the shop on display. I highly recommend this blanket as it makes a beautiful gift.<br />

I designed this cowl to use one skein of Cast Away from the gorgeous Knit Collage. I love this yarn and wanted a cozy cowl that is easy to put on during the cold winter months. The yarn has a soft and beautiful melange of colors in a hand spun thick & thin hand spun texture.<br />

For $1, you can purchase a paper sheep, write your name on it, and we will hang it up! All proceeds will benefit Heifer International, a non-profit that helps impoverished families by purchasing livestock and agricultural goods. For every $120 we raise, we will be able to purchase a sheep for a needy family. The gift of a sheep is a wonderful way to share the warmth of the holiday season! Knit, Crochet, Create...

<br />
I am honored to share the above post by my friend Margaux. She was a fixture in the shop for many years and although she now resides in New England she is still here in spirit and visits as much as she can.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This beautiful cowl pattern is for her son James to raise money and awareness for AHC. I think we should do our part too so Patricia's Yarns is hosting a Knit-A-Long (KAL) to show our support. As she says, it is a 2-3 day project so perfect timing for quick holiday gifts!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>How to get involved.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
1. Buy the pattern from Margaux<br />
<br />
2. Come to the shop with the pattern and choose your yarn and get 25% off as my way to say thank you for supporting Margaux!<br />
<br />
3. Cast on and knit either with us at the shop or at home - wherever you choose.<br />
<br />
4. Come in sporting your newly finished cowl between now and 11/30 and have your photo taken so we can make a photo collage of support for Margaux & James (& Jim & Baby).<br />

<br />
I am very excited! I always look forward to this trip as I get to see all the people who make the products I love and I see what's new. I will be visiting with Lorna's Laces, Koigu, Soak, Manos del Uruguay, Kelbourne Woolens, MadelineTosh, Blue Sky Alpacas, Spud & Chloe, Knit Collage, and more. It is always so fun to see all the new products!<br />
<br />
I will take as many photos as possible and keep you updated via blog, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram from Indianapolis! So keep checking back!<br />
<br />
I look forward to bringing back new and exciting products just for you.

When I go to the grocery store I try to bring my own bags and do my little part to reduce waste.<br />
<br />

It is a free pattern you can find on Ravelry. I really like the single strap for it - and that it is knit in one piece. After all, seaming a market bag seems counter-intuitive. The pattern is well-written and the finished bag is perfect for running errands.<br />
<br />
I knit the bag using Blue Sky Alpacas Worsted Cotton in color 637 Raspberry and used size 8 and 10 needles. I am really pleased with it and look forward to farmers markets in Hoboken so I can put it to good use.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #6aa84f;">Happy Earth Day everyone! Knit, Crochet, Create - and be Green!</span><br />

Mother Nature has (finally) brought Spring - and it is here to stay (I hope). I have spotted daffodils and crocus' sprouting around town. Spring accessories are slowly making their way into our wardrobes and our cooler-weather items are getting moved to closets. But before you put those items away, you need to make sure they are ready for storage, right?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, what to do? Dry clean? Machine wash? Hand wash? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Depends on the item, the yarn, and the recommended care. When in doubt - hand wash. We are huge fans of Soak, a wonderful wool wash that does not need rinsing but will clean your hand made woolens beautifully. Fill a clean tub (bowl/sink/tub) with lukewarm water, some Soak and let it rest for 15 minutes.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Gently swish it around - rinse and squish out excess water in a clean towel or two. Then lay flat to dry until.... </div>

Until cooler air returns, let's enjoy some lighter weight scarves and shawls. Maybe knit a toy for spring - or a market bag for farmers markets! Whatever you do, enjoy these lovely days!</div>

More than a retail store, Patricia's Yarns has become a unique local community of knitters, crocheters, and friends. Through classes, charity events, wine tastings, knit nights, trips to Rhinebeck, and more, Patricia's Yarns is the proverbial "third space" (not work, not home) for friends and community members. Whether you are picking out the perfect project - or just stopping by for coffee, we love having you be part of it all. To celebrate our Ten Year Anniversary, we put together the following video. We love Patricia's Yarns - and we hope you do too!<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I knit a cowl out of the Oak colorway and I love it! it is so soft and warm! Oak is a beautiful blend of soft earth colors and the thick and thin quality makes this perfect for simple mindless knitting and produces a very unique, soft rustic fabric. This is a quick knit out of one skein and really will be nice and cozy to wear when walking around town. </span><br />

I know of some people who sit down on the January 1 and make a list of what they want to make. Others I know keep going with projects as the inspiration hits. Either way, I am sure that 2014 will be full of beautiful yarns and projects. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
One thing that I have had my eye on for a while include Poppy by Ysolda Teague. This little doll is so cute I think it would be very fun to make and see her personality come out.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On quite the opposite end of the spectrum I am dying to work with some Knit Collage yarns, like their new line Cast Away. It is a very soft and colorful hand spun 100% wool yarn. It is so pretty when all balled up and waiting to be turned into something cozy.</span></div>

For the fifth year in a row, Patricia's Yarns chartered a bus to the New York Sheep and Wool Festival held annually in Rhinebeck, NY. I love this trip! It is always fun to have an adventure, see all of the gorgeous wool, and yes, see the lovely animals that provide all of our incredible fiber. Not to mention, I get a chance to catch up with many of my favorite knitters (including author <a href="http://ysolda.com/" target="_blank">Ysolda Teague</a>, <a href="http://www.lornaslaces.net/" target="_blank">Lorna's Laces</a> owner Beth Casey [both pictured]), customers, and friends (hooray, <a href="http://www.tentenknits.com/" target="_blank">tentenknits</a> was there!). Here are a few of my favorite pictures from this year's trip. Knit, Crochet, Create!<br />
