NEW YARN ALERT: Debbie Bliss Rialto DK Print



Rialto DK Print is a fab new yarn from Debbie Bliss which we are sure you'll love. It is made with soft, 100% Superwash Merino Wool - which means it's great for everybody and everything, including kids, men, blankets, etc, even boot socks! It knits up in stripes that will wow everyone. Use Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK in a contrasting colour for ribbing to make your stripes pop!
  • Available in 6 self-striping colourways
  • 50g/ 105m
  • 22 sts & 30 rows = 10cm/4" on 4mm needles
  • Machine wash cool, lay flat to dry
  • $9.97 per ball




 

I know it's hard to visualize how the yarn will knit up, so take a peek at the patterns from the Debbie Bliss Rialto DK Print Book drew up for this yarn HERE




Nutmeag made these Striped Baby Legwarmers (free pattern Legwarmies) with 1 ball of Rialto DK Print and 1 ball of contrasting yarn.  Or Try Hopscotch (another free pattern) for children's sizes.




Make a Caramel cardie (free pattern) using Rialto DK Print alternated with a solid contrast colour of Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK




I think it would make an amazing Chevron Baby Blanket (use 4mm needles and cast on 193sts for a blanket about 31" wide) but keep in mind the striping will be much narrower. 




More modest striping options: use  Rialto DK Print alternated with a solid contrast colour of Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK for pattern OhLaLa

SALE Debbie Bliss Angel & Party Angel 20% Off




  • Sale $7.97 (reg. $10)
  • 25g/200m
  • 76% Superb Kid Mohair, 24% Silk
  • 3.25mm to 5mm needles

Mohair Hints
  • it is easier to work with mohair on pointy needles.
  • if making lace, the 'stickiness' of wood needles may be preferable (try Knit Picks Harmony wood interchangeable needles). if working in stocking or garter stitch (plain knitting) metal needles may be easier to work with (try Addi Turbo Lace or Knit Picks nickel plated interchangeable needles).
  • kid mohair knits very easily when holding 2 strands together.
  • if you need to rip back your work or your yarn catches in a knot, place your work in the freezer for about 30 minutes before ripping.
  • to keep a ball of mohair from unraveling while you work with it, keeping it in the leg of an old pair of pantyhose (or funky new ones from the dollar store)





  • Pattern: Free on Ravelry
  • 5mm-24" circular needles
  • 3 skeins of  Debbie Bliss Angel, 1 in each colour (good colour combo is 15003 smoke grey, 15007 silver grey, 15001 white)

NEW - The Knitter's Year by Debbie Bliss


The Knitter's Year by Debbie Bliss

The latest great new book by Debbie Bliss just landed, "The Knitter's Year: 52 Make-in-a-Week Projects, Quick Gifts and Seasonal Knits"!  As the title suggestes it's a bunch of small projects that you can make in under a week and will leave you with a great sense of satisfaction.  Some of the projects are as small as a floral corsage, and go up to as large as a pair of socks. Other fun projects include cushions, flower pot cozies, booties, clothes pin bag, bags, votive candle covers, gloves, pencil case, sachets, a simple baby cardie, sewing needle case, a beret, baby hat, Christmas ornaments, Christmas stocking, scarves, hot water bottle cover, slippers, PDA cozy, pincushion, draft stopper, mug cozy, tea cozy (matching the mug, of course!), handwarmers, flags, pot holders, clothes hanger, a belt, bead necklace, washcloth, and a basket. The patterns are sorted by season, keeping things thematic. I don't want to spoil the ending for you, but a good time was had by all. 

New - Debbie Bliss Magazine Fall/Winter 2010!


Debbie Bliss Knitting Magazine Fall/Winter 2010

The new Debbie Bliss Magazine has arrived!  Like it's predecessors, it's a mix of old goodies & new patterns, and of course all are beautiful. Unfortunately, there aren't any 'official' websites showing off the magazine, but I've managed to cull a good sampling.  Among the newbies is the "Scottish Eccentrics", full of beautiful colourwork. There are another 2 sections of newbies, one Holiday related and the other casual sweaters - but you'll just have to pick up a copy to see for yourself.  As for some of the golden oldies (not all of them), see below:
