What's on my needles?
The knitting on my May sock is finished, but the stitches are stuck on the needle, waiting to be kitchenered. I have a couple days to finish before my deadline!
My 6 (hundred) Day Star Blanket is sloooooooooowly growing! I'm in no major rush to finish it, honestly. It'll get done when it gets done!
And I'm humming along on my Elder Tree Shawl, using Cotton + Merino Chic, the sparkly version of the cotton / merino blend yarn from Juniper Moon Farm.

Events to watch out for!
Be There or Be Square MAL
Starts on Thursday, June 18th
Pick a pattern from our curated bundle on Ravelry and create a project that features squares. I love this idea for a Make-A-Long because you can pick a knit project featuring mitered squares, a crocheted project that used granny squares or pick a project with BOTH crafts!
You'll be knitting or crocheting along with the support of a community of other makers, both in-person and virtually via Zoom. There are a TON of options in our bundle, but lots of other possibilities as well. Don't see anything that catches your fancy? Explore your options on Ravelry... we're flexible on what project you work on!
Be sure to sign up over on our website to stay looped into all the details.
WWK&CIP Day
Saturday, June 13th from 2p - 5p
Join us for a delightful afternoon of knitting and crocheting in public at the beautiful new winery in Charlotte! Whether you're a seasoned pro or a curious beginner, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy your craft in a public place and make our art visible to the larger community. It's a great way to start conversations about stitching and generally make a good spectacle of ourselves.
Bring your current project(s) and we'll gather at the new Auxo Winery. This fabulous new small business is located at 19 E. Five Point Hwy, a few miles south of Charlotte (not far from the highway). Depending on weather, there is a lovely patio for outdoor stitching and plenty of opportunities for food and of course, beverages! If you're interested in learning more about the winery, please give them a follow on their social media channels.
