Palace

 A new yarn is on the way from Classic Elite.
On-trend soft and pastel colors show the subtle tweed component of this sister yarn to Chalet and Chateau. The same wonderful fiber and chainette construction will work together in stripes and colorblocks with Chalet and Chateau.   






What can you make with Palace? How about the Remy Poncho (pattern purchased on Ravelry)?


Going to the Knitters' Fair? I just saw this on their website today
With all the construction in the area right now, it's best to plan your route ahead of time! Note that Ottawa St is closed South of King St, so crossing town can be difficult.
We will be updating the website with even more accurate directions just before the Fair. So much of KW traffic flow is disrupted due to LRT construction, and it changes so frequently, that it's difficult to know how to get around town from one day to the next! Our intrepid volunteers will be scouting the area around the Aud on the week of the Fair, to give attendees the most current information possible. Check the Guild website just before the Fair
Although we encourage you to volunteer to get free entry to the K-W Knitters' Fair, we understand that not everyone who is coming is able to help out. But wouldn't you still like to get into the Fair for free?
We are holding a contest on Facebook and Twitter to give away 4 free passes for sharing news of our event! This contest is open to everyone except vendors at the Fair. Here are the rules:

  • On Facebook, (here is the link) comment on our post to tell us what you’re most excited about for the KW Knitters’ Fair this year. Share our post for an extra entry.
  • On Twitter, tweet what you’re excited about at The KWFair with #KWFairExcitement. Retweet our post for an extra entry.
Winners will be selected on September 5th at 9pm EST, using random.org to randomly select from the comments, shares, tweets, or retweets. Winners will be notified by private message.
I finished the cast off on my Eccentric Chevron Wrap this afternoon. We'll get pictures tomorrow. Tonight I'm going back to Outline. I hope to have it finished for the Fair - fingers crossed the Hedgehog order will be arriving late next week.
