Hey Seattle-area yarn 🧶 lovers who also love purple - we have a tradition at our shop that we put our least favorite color on sale for our birthdays. Cheryl isn’t a big fan of purple, so purple yarn is 10% off this weekend - come wish her happy birthday, take all the purple away, and make her happy!

We had our January gathering of our #TemperatureGang on Saturday at the Good Society Brewery (right next door to the shop!). It was so fun to compare different versions of a #TemperatureBlanket (some crochet, some knit), color choices, etc. We’ll be back next month! 🧶 #crochet #knitting #craftiverse

Elspeth has a plan for a knit blanket I’m pretty sure - I can’t remember the details but I can ask her.

Seattle Yarn @seattleyarn.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Hi! So there are some folks who do just two rows a day, garter stitch. Some folks do a miter square and so half in the low and half in the high temp. You could do something like the Tin Can Knits Fly Away blanket with high on one side, low on the other, and average temp as the stripe in the middle?
