Spare Parts KAL #2

Introducing the Spare Parts KAL #2 - a knit-along for leftovers!

Many sock patterns use only a half skein of sock yarn so you have leftover yarn. Here’s an opportunity to use up those leftover skeins! Or a chance to use a small skein of luxury yarn you don’t know what to do with!

Details:

• Start date is February 18, 2012; each project will be added to Ravelry, to preview, the week before it is posted to the group.
• Deadline to order is March 31, 2012.
• There will be eleven (11) projects, plus a bonus leftover lace project, over a period of twelve (12) weeks.
• Each project should use approximately 200yds of sock/fingering weight yarn (except bonus project).
• Projects may include, but not limited to, socks (yes, socks, for those leftovers from non-sock projects), fingerless mitts, cowls and some other possibilities.
• No need to buy any yarn, just use leftovers!

To place your order for the Spare Parts KAL, visit the Goddess Knits website.

Spirit of the Southwest Sock Club

Introducing the Spirit of the Southwest Sock Club!

This 6-month club is a yarn only club featuring semi-solid colorways inspired by the colors of the Southwest. Each month, members will receive a new skein of yarn dyed in a different, exclusive, semi-solid colorway. Yarn bases will also vary each month, with each skein having a minimum of 400yds, and may include wool or wool blends.

• Club installments will be shipped monthly from March 2012 through August 2012.
• Yarn will be shipped during the third week of each month via USPS.
• This is a yarn only club, so no patterns are included.
• Yarns will vary from month to month and may include wool or wool blends.

You are also welcome to join the Ravelry group for the club.
