Weekend Round Up!

Plied Knowledge: The week that was…

At the warehouse:

• It was a week of Less Traveled Yarn here at the warehouse! Since we wiped out our stock of Baby Suri with our last alpaca sale, we have have been anxiously awaiting our latest order and it's here!
• And it included a NEW BASE!!! We are super excited about the 757 Sock yarn and are already planning our next projects with it...
• But let's not forget we also restocked Sport and Dreamliner.🙌

Around the web:

• Did you know there were trends in houseplants? Check out what they predict will be hot in 2022...
• We've hit that point of winter where our houses have been shut up enough that mold can become an issue. Take a look at some of these natural (no bleach!) ways to get rid of it...
• The Olympics may be over but I think most of us are still trying to figure out how the luge came to be a sport....
• Still know someone on the Wordle bandwagon? There's a hat pattern for that!
• It's been super cold in Portland this week which makes firing up the oven for these soft German pretzel sticks sound so appealing. Especially when paired with one of these lovely hummus recipes...
• Some of us are old enough to remember the OG Harlem Globetrotters and Curly was one of the best...
• And after a week of hard news, here's a lovely duet from a street busker and an stage actress and singer who happened to be watching...

And totally, completely, unapologetically local:

• Looking for plants locally? This week we are giving a shout out to our warehouse buddy, Pistils Nursery! Yes, they have brick and mortar stores but also curbside pickup for online orders, as well.
• As Black History month continues, check out this article on someone preserving the history of Black loggers in Oregon...
• Thinking of trying a CSA? Here's a tool to help...
• And finally, cap your local Black History Month with a walk through Forest Park in an even to honor MLK Jr. and the Selma Bridge march...

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