We are all really in love with Crystal Palace’s Mochi line of yarns, and Vivian was feeling the photographic inspiration this weekend, so she took some fabulous shots of the three Mochi’s together. First there was Mini Mochi, a fantastic fingering-weight yarn. Then came Mochi Plus, a worsted version of the original. And then, as […]
For our final pattern of the 2010 Single Skein Club (by the way, there’s still room in the 2011 club, folks!), our very own Sorren designed these delightful little felted bowls. The Twice-Felted Goldilocks Bowls can be made, all three of ’em, out of one lone skein of Brown Sheep’s Lanaloft Worsted!
Come one, come all, to view Twisted’s selection of locally made yarn bowls by JAMPDX. We just received a fresh crop straight from the kiln. It is spring after all… is that why the green one and the poppies were calling my name?

New pattern alert! The ever-talented and lovely Lenka has designed a hat that really lives up to its name – it really IS Cute as a Daisy! This two-color hat is a great first Fair Isle project, or a quick knit if you’re experienced at the technique. Either way, the pattern repeats are intuitive and […]
Are you sick of losing stitches when trying on a sweater-in-progress? Sick of transferring every.single.stitch onto a piece of waste yarn, only to realize that you cut the waste yarn too short, or that it eats into your valuable knitting time? Feeling frustrated about these very issues, Emily and Parna hopped online the other day, […]
Imagine how excited we all were when, last fall, the extremely talented and wonderful Melanie of Black Trillium Fibre Studios asked us if we would be interested in her creating colorways for each of us. After we picked ourselves up off of the ground (what knitter hasn’t dreamed of a favorite dyer’s colorway being inspired […]
