This week Team Caron hit the Craft & Hobby Association trade convention in Anaheim, California where I yarn bombed a 10 ft. tree, live from the show floor! Armed with large knitted pieces I'd made using Sheep(ish) and the Ultimate Sweater Machine, I spent 4 hours be-cozying the trunk and branches while attendees stopped to watch. Here's a snapshot of the finished product.

Now I have an answer to that inevitable interview question, "What's the strangest thing you've ever knit?"




Stitch.Rock.Love,

 



 

 

Tulip / Etimo
Sox are still so hot – and so much more fun to knit when you have the best and smoothest of double-pointed needles, Kanderu from Tulip. I’m not a sock knitter, but boy did I enjoy using these needles when making a hat for my grandson!

Valencia Cowl Pullover
Designer Darlene Dale gives us a very wearable pullover, knit in NaturallyCaron.com merino-blend Country. Featuring a deep, comforting cowl, knit in a generous Farrow rib, and wide romantic sleeves, the Valencia Cowl Pullover will become a wardrobe favorite. Wear it belted or loose, depending on the day, the weather or your mood.

Diamond Lattice Throw
Designer Shari White had a wonderful time playing with color and texture with her crocheted Diamond Lattice Throw. She had a great palette of color to work with—Simply Soft® Paints complemented by a solid shade of Simply Soft. Her diamond pattern scatters the variegated hues and the ribbed border sets off the colors beautifully.

Cadet Toddler Cap

This sweet Cadet Toddler Cap will instantly ramp up the "style quotient" of your favorite toddler. Crocheted in Stitch.Rock.Love Sheep(ish) yarn, this cap has it all. Designer Cheryl Cambras has given the cap a tiny visor, ribbed sides, and a contrast strap trimmed with crocheted "buttons". Adorable!
