We’re so thrilled the perfect Knit Kit On A String – 21 Color Hat Kit has arrived from Blue Sky Fibres – we’ve been looking forward to having this at Loop since the moment we saw it. It’s the most perfect gift for yourself or a loved one. And we’re giving one away this week!

No matter your age, we still all knit in large like our mothers and grandmothers did. It’s a tradition that has seen a proud resurgence in the last decade, and it’s a tradition with a very large amount of history. As true as this is for us, it’s true for Kristin Ford, the founder behind Woolfolk, whose grandmother taught her to knit at the age of 5.
