Too hot to be outdoors for too long with the recent humidity but it has been the perfect excuse to knit indoors! Summer knits using linen, cottons are much easier to work on such as this beauty that Rita knit!
It has been so humid and hot that I am not going to even try to sit outside to knit! Inside the house with air conditioning on is where I want to be with my knitting in hand! It was even cool enough for my grandson to try on his new sweater:)

It is officially summer! When the days are not wet, I like to to take advantage of those clear days, sit outside and knit whenever I can. I love the light summer tops and tanks that can be made using lighter weight yarns or cotton, linen or silk.
One week and it will officially be summer even if it hasn't felt like it! Have you like Trina been working on warm weather knits? Some of us don't knit at all during the summer season but I love the light and airy tops and shawls that can be made using cottons, linens, silks and blends of these yarns! Summertime and easy breezy knitting...
Tomorrow is our second annual Sue2Knits Knit in Public Day! So far it looks like we will have a great day so I look forward to seeing many of you! Bring your project - knit, crochet, weave or craft with us! Go Public, Go Social...Go Knitting in Public Yeah! From 10 until 4 pm.
Today is the kind of gorgeous day that we have all been waiting for! It has been so damp, wet and dreary grey days with waterlogged yards and plants that this kind of day just hits all the right buttons!
With the weather shifting from gray and chilling one day to hot and muggy the next, Jane's mother has still been able to wear this beautiful jacket that Jane knit her for her birthday!
Are you ready to welcome the promise of summer days? It looks like we might be in for a great long weekend to spend outside! Lise is ready with her newly finished I See Spring sweater by Joji.
Mother's Day is almost here, that special day when moms are honoured with brunch, breakfast in bed, flowers and anything to show our love! Well for us yarn lovers, forget the flowers because your Mom wants yarn!
I am ready to start my summer knitting even if the weather has not exactly been cooperating! Elizabeth Smith's Denis popped in my mailbox earlier this week from Quince and Co!

Come celebrate with us from 10-6 tomorrow - Saturday, April 27th!
It is Good Friday and a holiday...I am not going out of town until Sunday so I am open this weekend! I am really hoping for some spring weather to enjoy and not rain but today looks like a mostly overcast day!
Today there was no sun, only gray and intermittent rain so it was the prefect weather to wear a cozy, oversized sweater like Nik is here!
