Miniskein madness!

Brooke and I recently finished the first shipment of the next round of our yarn club–and we are rather pleased with the results, if we do say so ourselves. The theme for this club round is Minis, as in mini-bar and mini-skeins. For our first shipment, we chose the theme Bombay Sapphire. It’s an aromatic gin inspired by the Star of India, a precious sapphire that is now housed in the Smithsonian.

I sent Brooke a set of four miniskeins in blues ranging from a light turquoise morphing to a deep cobalt.

She worked her magic and created this lovely cowl pattern: easy to do, but with a spectacular result.

We’re already working on months 2 and 3–and here’s some exciting news. We’ll be vending at VK Live: Pasadena AND Stitches South in Nashville next month. Come and see us if you’re at either show!
