This gorgeous, beginner-friendly, Tunisian crochet scarf generates a lot of conversation in our store. “Is it knitting?” “Is it crochet?”

Mesa Scarf by Toni | Crochet Inspo & Design 💕 features fun colour changes, creating a fabric that looks like stained glass.

We love this pattern because once you get the stitches down, it becomes an easy make.

April Knights made our sample, pictured here, in Estelle Worsted for the solid colour and one Rico Wonderball for the colour changing contrast.

Not ready to try this on your own? Join April’s Mesa Scarf Workshop - it starts on Saturday - and create a colourful scarf in this excellent follow-up to our Intro to Tunisian class!

Dates: Saturday, September 19 and October 1

Time: 10 AM - 12 PM

Prerequisite skills: Experience making the Tunisian simple stitch

Join us and your scarf will be finished in time for cooler weather!

The pattern and class registration links are in the comments below.

Not to fish for compliments, but what do you think of our back to “school” window? Reel nice? 🎣

(I’m probably not done with the puns. 🤭)

The pattern is Sardine by Barbara Ceiga, and I love it so much that the Sardines are sure to multiply.

From Fashion to Basket Coiling: Lora Bertolo’s Journey

Periodically I like to offer yarn-adjacent classes and workshops. This Fall, we are launching our class schedule with Lora Bertolo’s Basket Coiling Workshop.

Basket coiling offers a meditative, hands-on experience and a satisfying way to create beautiful, functional pieces from repurposed materials.

Lora enjoys teaching the craft as she says it is a forgiving craft with endless creative options, the process is therapeutic and the more people that repurpose textiles, the better it is for everyone. You can find her

Check out today’s newsletter for an interview with Lora.

If this intrigues you, Lora’s workshop is this Saturday from 12 - 4 PM. You can sign up on our website.

Baskets are enjoying a renaissance.

No sign of Sharon from Security, though!

Casapinka stopped by Unwind today and I completely forgot to mention how I colossally fluffed up the Colossal Fluff Up shawl by not reading the yardage requirements. Reading is hard!

It was fantastic to be able to say thanks to the designer who helped LYS Owners breathe & hope in the early days of the pandemic. ✨
