Weâve been busy this July! We still have another Knit Night and a lot more planned for the coming months too. Stay tuned, so you donât miss a thing!
What a summer itâs already been!
We have indeed been busy around the shop, and if youâve been in to see us, youâll know what I mean. Brian and Anne have been building shelves, moving furniture, and reorganizing yarn like you wouldnât believe.
Weâve re-arranged some of our favourites and added extra storage for inventory so we can showcase the wonderful samples weâve had knit over the years. Itâs so nice to be able to see a real-life example of how the different kinds of fibre can work in available patterns. Although it has made my WIP list even longer than it was a few months ago.
Weâve almost nailed down our Fall classes schedule. The talented TBF teachers have enjoyed their summer off, but theyâre already cooking up new projects to help you create and learn. Stay tuned for our announcement and pre-enrolment in August. The first group of classes will begin the second week of September.
Coming up in August
We started a Knit-Along-Along last week, following along with Drea Renee Knits, Spincycle Yarns, and Farmerâs Daughter Fibers Antipodes sweater.
Every year, before the Rhinebeck festival, Andrea Mowry creates a sweater pattern and encourages her online knitting community to knit along with her to be ready for the festival in the Fall. You can get more info in Andreaâs Ravelry forum, or the Spincycle Facebook group.
If you purchase your Antipodes yarn here at Three Bags Full, weâll pay for the pattern to help you get motivated. We encourage anyone whoâd like some moral support during the knit along to come on in to the shop, either during our Thursday Knit Night, or on Sunday afternoons.
If a sweater is a little intimidating, but youâd like to play along, we found a beautiful Noro cowl and fingerless gloves pattern that will showcase the colour changing yarn allllmost as well as the Antipodes.
