Weekend Round Up!

Plied Knowledge: The week that was…

At the warehouse:

• Happy Pride Month! In addition to the wonderful colors from Knitted Wit in Victory Sock, we also received some amazing colorways from Fully Spun on their Postscript Fingering base! Looking for something thicker? We have Pride colors in Fully Spun Postscript Aran, too. And remember, this month we will donate 25% of the sales of Pride-themed colorways to Basic Rights Oregon! <3
• Malabrigo!!!! We just love getting a new shipment of squishy, beautiful yarn from them and this time the Rasta and Rios seem extra soft and lovely...
• Almost too cute for words, we just got in new mesh laundry bags with CATS. So good!
• It's always sweater knitting weather if you ask us, and thanks to our recent shipment from Brooklyn Tweed, we have the yarn! Especially if you like Arbor, Shelter, and Quarry...

Around the web:

• Did you watch the Friends Reunion? Apparently Irish Twitter really dug Matt LeBlanc...
• It's prime time to stargaze and while you wait for the sun to go down, why not DIY a constellation jar?
• Did you know sugar that sugar can effect your mood as well as other things?
• The pandemic has left many of us with lots of empty wine bottles. Martha knows just what to do not only with the bottles and don't forget to get crafty with the corks, too...
• Has the pandemic also left you leary of travel? Here are some weekend projects to keep your summer full...
• Did you know pom poms have a surprisingly interesting history going back to the Vikings?
• Who knew Tik Tok was the place to learn some art history?
• According to Buzzfeed, if you recognize these pictures, you are old...

And totally, completely, unapologetically local:

• Local Pride Month is here! Check all of the events happening around town...
• Then get your reflective pronoun to show your pride AND be safe...
• With school out soon, now the time to get your free Oregon Travel Guide and get planning for the summer...
• Speaking of summer, the Portland Pickles season begins this weekend!
• Your instagram feed needs a shot of caffeine from this Vietnamese coffee shop...

Have a great weekend and remember, you can always find us online!
