Knitting shop in White Sulphur Springs

Sarah took a well earned vacation to DC to visit her daughter last week.  On the way back she stopped at a knitting shop in White Sulphur Spring.  Stone walls Farm is the name of the shop.

The owner dyes her own yarn.  The yarn Sarah brought back with her makes me want to make a special trip to the shop!  It is gorgeous yarn!

Knitting Stripes

I read an e-mail from Harps and Thistles this morning that had a link to a video about knitting stripes.  I want to be sure that I can get to this you tube video again if I end up making the mittens that Carla was working on last week at knitting.

So first here is the you tube URL:

And then here is a photo of Carla's mittens.



Carla's mittens are made from a kit that she bought at Black Mountain.



And actually I can see that Carla did not need this video as the ribbing does not have stripes.  Still, it seemed that these two ideas had some connection.
