Summer is officially here! Summer makes using cottons, cotton blends and linens or fingering weight yarns more enjoyable to work with for our summer knits and to of course, to wear!
It is definitely feeling like summer outside. Some of us don't knit much in the summer but I can't say that I ever put my needles down...I knit and make year round and I hope you do too!
Tomorrow is our fourth annual Sue2Knits Knit in Public Day! Go Public, Go Social...Go Knitting in Public Yeah!
From 10 until 4 pm. So far it looks like we will have a great day so I look forward to seeing you! Bring yourself, your knitting, crochet, weave or yarnie project and join in some socializing and fibre fun with us!
I am not sure whether we are in for a scorching hot weather this weekend or whether we get a mixed bag but I am going to try to sit and knit out in the gazebo!
Last week's crazy weather was not at all what I expected! Let's hope we have a great weekend ahead of us because I want to be able to sit back, relax and knit preferably out on my deck!
It is the Friday before the long weekend and it is unbelievably hot outside and a little overcast. Although it is supposed to get a little cooler over the next few days, it is still going to feel hot! If you are lucky enough to have a pool, have you opened it yet so you can cool off? We don't but I do have the gazebo on our deck so I think I will sit, relax and knit if I get the chance.
Wow! I can't believe how warm it has been outside! My deck has still been a little too breezy to sit out and knit comfortably though without everything blowing. Have you been knitting outside?
May has finally arrived, and while spring has not been as warm yet, we can see in the flowers starting to bloom and the trees that are budding or flowering!
We’re excited to be participating in the fifth annual Local Yarn Store Day on Saturday, April 30th - TOMORROW from 10 am until 5 pm! LYS Day is a wonderful way for customers to show the love for their local yarn shops and for yarn shops to thank their customers for their continued support. Get in on the fun and make LYS Day 2022 an event to remember!
We definitely had a mixed bag weather-wise this week, with snow, rain, cold and warm weather! Luckily we had wonderful weather for most of Easter weekend for my visit with my family!
Next weekend is Easter weekend! I will be closed for in-store shopping from Friday, April 15 and re-open on Tuesday, April 19th! The online shop is ALWAYS OPEN, although orders will not be shipped until Tuesday which considering Canada Post is also closed makes sense!
It isn't very warm outside especially with that blustery wind but if I look in my garden out front and out back, the tulips, allium and lilies are all sprouting up their tips! Spring flowers will be here soon!
The first day of spring was a few days ago but it doesn't feel like it yet with it being grey and chilly out! It is still sweater weather out there but I do admit to wanting to start warm weather knits!
Today is not quite as nice out as yesterday but it's still not bad! Spring knitting is coming! Are you ready to cast on a summer tee yet?
