This week we’re continuing our new blog feature ‘On Our Needles’ with another one of our Loopettes, Carole, our store manager. Carole is known for her incredible colour work sweaters, her quirky colour combinations and her love for matching her knits to her handmade dresses! ‘On Our Needles’ is our chance to talk about the staff at Loop and how wonderful they are! We talk all about favourite yarns, recently finished projects, and what kinds of things we love to make.
This week we’re dropping in with a little post to let you know that we have some wonderful classes lined up for Autumn 2019, and into Spring 2020. We’ll be welcoming Hikaru Noguchi and Celia Pym back to Loop, and will be greeting a brand new teacher, artist Richard McVetis!
Wow! We are so thrilled to have received this amazing new yarn from La Bien Aimée! Kumo is their newest, and softest and squishiest, base. It is incredibly lightweight, and the blend of Suri alpaca and silk makes it soft enough to wear next to your skin. We are giving away two skeins, one each to two different people, this week so read on to find out more!
