JAMAICAN ME CRAZY FOR THIS COTTON!

Allison's ready for spring with her new toddler jumper and matching sweater made by her grandmother, sweet Susan! Using Katia's Jamaica, a self-striping spring cotton in vibrant colors, and a breezy pattern, our little Allison is bloomin' pretty! Look for new Katia pattern books for adults and kids alike next week :)

POSTCARD FROM A YARN ADDICT

"As you can see the wandering knitting addict from Sunny Sarasota finally got her pictures to you. I loved my adventure to Great Balls of Yarn! I wore the scarf to a luncheon last week and received raves... actually someone bought it off my back so now I have to make more! I am also including some shots of some hats I made for a local photographer, as well as some baby cocoons. Thank you all for coming into my life..."
These were the words and photos we got from our new friend, the very talented Susan Mitloff, who visited our stores during our recent Trendsetter Trunk Show featuring the designs of Barry Klein. Barry flew in from Los Angeles and spent a few days traveling between GBOY locations with his fabulous new spring yarns. The scarf Susan is wearing is knitted up with Trendsetter Minestrone and Cha Cha--just one ball of each. Susan, thank you for your kind words and we love ya right back! Maybe you'll join us on next year's Knitting Cruise . . . xo RT
