Not doing very well

Here is how far I've gotten. Not doing so well. I've ripped it back and restarted 3 times now. This is the most complicated pattern I've done yet. I think I'm getting it down but I find I'm losing track of where I am. Any suggestions?

Knit Along Prize #1

So, I have not been good with getting my pics and thoughts up about this current club project from Anne. Having said that, I LOVE it!! I did decide to do the stole, and it took me a bit to decide how much I wanted widen it by, but I think that it will work with the skein I have.

So, to get the knit along started, we have our first prize to get you going. A skein of choice from our store is up for grabs, all that you have to do is leave a post with a picture of how your scarf/stole is coming along, and we will draw the first winner this coming Saturday.

Let's see those projects!!!

Knit Along

Are we ready to start the knit along?

Knit Along

Our knit along beings tomorrow, April 6th both here and on Ravelry. We will have a few wonderful prizes, and I look forward to seeing how everyone's projects turn out. I am casting on for a stole instead of a scarf, so I will try and keep up with everyone :)

Happy Knitting

Taste of Shivaya Second Club Selection

Hi Everyone!

Happy Spring to all of you. Today seems like the perfect day to post our color choices for our second Taste of Shivaya club selection. As many of you know, Anne Hanson has designed a beautiful spring lace scarf for this shipment, and we are really excited to bring three beautiful color choices to all of you.

1. Ocean ~ A stunning turquoise blue that Anne herself to create the pattern
2. Lime: speaks for itself. A great soft lime green color that will certainly enhance any spring outfit
3. Sunset: For those that want a variegated look, we have sunset. A blend of orange and reds, that is kettle dyed to ensure that there is no patterened effect.





Each skein will contain 1000 yards. Anne's pattern only calls for 400 yards, so you will plenty left over to create a second scarf, or an entirely new project.

Please note, we only dye about 4-5 skeins per dye lot, so if you do think that you will want more yarn for another project, please place your order ASAP by emailing us at info@shivayanaturals.com to ensure exact color matches.

All color choices need to be received by this Tuesday, March 24th. We will send out email reminders on Monday morning.

Happy Spring to all of you.

Finished my first cowl

I finished yesterday. This was a great pattern. I really like how the finished product came out and really liked this binding off method I'll definitely use it again. I do have one question any recommendations on what I should (or should not) wash my cowl in?
