Several weeks ago, a new magazine arrived at the shop and I neglected to blog about it. WollZauber had the misfortune of making its grand entrance on the same day as the new Schulana yarns. I photographed WollZauber, promised to get back to it, and then we got a box from String Theory, followed by a most … [more]
The latest spring magazine is for crocheters. Within the Spring 2012 issue of Interweave Crochet, you’ll find skirts, socks, shawls, and other crocheted garments suitable for the season. Find it on the teacart!

The leafy pullover on the cover of the magazine is made in Malabrigo Worsted, a favorite yarn for its plush softness. This issue has more accessories than sweaters, however. Look here for crocheted socks, mittens, and wraps. See … [more]
The magazine-makers of the world have been working overtime, it seems. Last week brought two new issues, Creative Knitting and Interweave Knits. I’d barely flipped through them when three more new magazines arrived. Rest assured, if you come by the shop this week, you’re likely to find at least one compelling new project among these … [more]
What’s that? Another new winter magazine already? Hello, Interweave Knits. I like the look of Betty’s Pullover… what are your favorite projects from this issue?
