Featured Pattern & Yarn
Sarasota Chunky is the perfect combination of cotton and acrylic. We love cotton for it's cool texture but it's denser than most other fibers. This density is one reason you don't see much cotton in a bulky (#5) weight. Adding acrylic to cotton yarn makes for a lighter yarn, plus the acrylic provides some stability so the yarn has some elasticity. Because of this, Sarasota Chunky's cotton/acrylic blend is perfect for blankets, accessories, and garments.
Try Sarasota Chunky in this crocheted Braided Bag (pdf link) or knitted Slip Stitch Baby Blanket (pdf link). Both are free in-store, on Ravelry or on Cascade's website (along with several other patterns)!

The Tip Jar
If you need to sort out your threads for a needlepoint, embroidery, or cross-stitch kit, you can make your own thread sorter with an old greeting card! Punch holes around the edges and pull your threads through with a hitch knot and label them with color names or numbers. You can now fold it up with the threads all kept safe and clean inside until you need them!
All regular classes are currently on hold until we can safely seat up to 6 students in the classroom. We'll let y'all know when we can offer them again. Until then, we're offering most of our class material in private lessons.
