Knit Mug!!

I was paging through the fund raising catalog for my son and found the best knit mug!!! I'm ordering a bunch for knitty friends. I'll probably be stocking up on wrapping paper too! I got to see the mug in real life the other day, it's even better in person!

You can buy your mug here. Use the student code 140483. When you use this code my son gets the credit and so does his school. I can also see sales based on emails, so you'll be entered to win a skein of Cotton Candy or Victory Sock! Once you've used the student code to log in click on great gifts and home decor, the mug should front and center! There are loads of other fun things to buy of course. 

So why this fundraiser? Our school is a Title I. We have free breakfast and lunch for all students. We are a high poverty school. The PTA is running this fundraiser to give money to each classroom. More is being allocated to the lower grades to be put towards field trips. While the PTA doesn't know about sales being turned in on paper, they can see their internet sales. So far only $700, which the school will get about 40% of. I know we've sold around $450 in mugs. Clearly, we need to sell a lot more!! This fundraiser closes on 10/9. If you purchase after that you can still choose our school and we'll get a smaller proceed, but anything helps! Im off to buy some mugs, wrapping paper, and who knows!!

A Weekend To Dye For {Among Friends}

Have you been wanting to learn to dye? Splash some colors around? You are in luck!! Sincere Sheep and Knitted Wit are teaching a dye retreat the first weekend in August. {Among Friends} will be hosting the event and making sure you have loads of fun.

Friday night we'll kick off the weekend with a meet and greet and trunk show at the studio, 7434 NE Sandy Blvd, light refreshments will be served. Saturday and Sunday we'll be diving into the wonderful world of color! We'll learn two different acid dye techniques and learn how to dye with natural dyes. There will even be an indigo pot!

The dye class is $150+$50 material fee. The material fee covers ten 50 gram skeins of fingering weight super wash merino. More will be available for purchase that weekend.

We can't wait for you to join us and to see what you create! All the details can be found on {Among Friends}.

Finish the Tour de Fleece with Knitted Wit

Are you spinning along with the Tour de France? 

Join us as we ride to the finish and head for the Champs-Elysees! 

July 27th from 1-4 pm we'll have bubbly, treats, and fiber for spinning! There will be yarn too of course. All the fiber in the studio, 7434 NE Sandy Blvd, is 10% off that day! Bring your wheel, spindle, current WIP and join us for some fun!

Knitted Wit is Moving!!

Alert the presses! Knitted Wit is moving out of my house and into a studio space! I am so excited I can't sit still! April 1st we'll be moving to a space in my neighborhood that will be perfect for Knitted Wit to continue growing in. Have I told you how small our house is? 760 square feet. With two adults, three kids, and a dog. Oh, and Knitted Wit. To say its cramped is a massive understatement. The space we're moving to is almost as big as our house, but it will just be Knitted Wit. I could gush all day really!

In order to afford moving and installing all the equipment necessary I'm doing an indiegogo campaign. A lot of my larger equipment won't work indoors or can't leave my house, like my washing machine. If you are so inclined, please check it out. There are some great perks to take advantage of. If you could let your knit night know too, that would be great!

One of the things I'm excited to offer at the new space is dye classes. You'll be able to come to the studio and see how it all works and then make variegated or semi-solid color yourself! And there's an old school pharmacy up the street with a fountain, hello milkshakes and root beer floats!

Another bit of quick news, mini skeins are in the shop! There's sweater kits here and here, flip through all the color options to see your choices. 20 and 40 color sets are also available.

A major thank you for your continued support. Today has been humbling with all the support of my passion.
