Carry your creativity with Erin Lane Bags! Whether you show your fiber fandom with the woolly wonder 
Sheepleverse, or dive into history with the Curiosities collection, our project bags, totes, and hook and needle 
organizers are at the ready to keep your hobby happy.
 
We all have it, we all snicker about it. 
Fun Fur. 
Whether it’s eyelash, boucle, or just generally furry, it’s hard to find projects for novelty yarn. 
With a sweet face, spiraling horns, and delightfully rotund body, Friendsheep by Cate Carter-Evans 
lets you transform your novelty and textured yarns into sweet, fleecy little friends. 
Pattern available on Ravelry; more info at infinitetwist.com
 
Have you ever had to frog because you forgot a step several rows back? Or lost your spot because you dropped your magnet board or lost track with your highlighter tape? Instead of wrestling with paper, use the knitCompanion app. It keeps you on track so you can knit more and frog less. knitCompanion works with ALL your patterns and is available for apple, android and kindle fire devices.

A lot of folks we know are taking road trips this summer. But things are a little different this year, aren't they? Our long-time sponsor, LoLo Body Care wants to remind you to pack your masks, extra gloves, and hand sanitizer. After you've thoroughly cleaned your hands at a rest stop or gas pump don't forget to moisturize! And LoLo has the perfect item for you. The LoLo Twist is everything that you love about the LoLo bar, but with a hands-free experience. LoLo Twist is quick absorbing and so convenient. Slips right in your purse, pocket or backpack. Enjoy the road, keep creating, and do the Twist at LoLoBody.com.

Gigi had set up a preemie hat kit: she is making more
baby bear hats out of Jamison yarn, she found some yellow yarn, and is knitting bee hives .
Gigi is working on the Ochre Cardigan. Judy’s super stretchy bind off for the neckband (this is actually Jeny's super stretchy bind-off, not Judy's).
