🍂 October Has Arrived...Let's Make Something Beautiful!

Happy Monday, friends!
October might just be my favorite month in the yarn shop.
The weather is finally starting to cooperate with our wool sweaters, project bags seem to be multiplying, and everywhere I look I see beautiful fall colors inspiring the next cast-on.
We've got a busy month ahead, so let's dive in!
๐ŸŒธ

๐ŸŒธ Flora Adora Has Begun!
What a wonderful way to kick off October!
Our first Flora Adora Hat Make Along was so much fun, and I can't wait to see everyone's hats come to life over the next few weeks.
Whether you're learning stranded colorwork, tackling a Latvian braid for the first time, or simply enjoying a cozy afternoon with friends, thank you for making this class such a joy.
I'm already looking forward to next Saturday!

๐Ÿ‚ Finish Off Fall
How are those Works in Progress coming?
Every week I see another long-forgotten project come back to life, and I absolutely love it!
Whether you're finally finishing a sweater, weaving in those last few ends, or giving a pair of socks the attention they deserve, keep going!
The best part of this challenge isn't the prize...it's finally getting to wear the projects you've worked so hard on.

๐Ÿงถ New Colors Have Arrived!
Friday brought a fun surprise...a fresh Cascade Yarns shipment!
We've added beautiful new colors in some of your favorite bases:
๐Ÿงถ Heritage ๐Ÿงถ Heritage Prints ๐Ÿงถ Pacific ๐Ÿงถ Cherub DK
Whether you're dreaming about a cozy pair of socks, a soft baby gift, or your next sweater project, there are plenty of new colors waiting to inspire your next cast-on.
Stop by this week and see what's newโ€”I have a feeling a few of these colors won't stay on the shelves for long!

๐Ÿงฆ Sock Tube Transformation Class
Have you been curious about my circular sock machine?
Now's your chance to learn what comes next!
๐Ÿงฆ Saturday, October 24 โ€ข 2:00 PM
In this fun, hands-on class, I'll show you how to transform a pre-cranked sock tube into a finished pair of socks by adding the heels, toes, and cuffs.
It's a great way to dip your toes into sock knitting (pun absolutely intended ๐Ÿ˜‰).
Space is limited, so be sure to reserve your spot!

๐Ÿงถ Final Beginner Knitting Class of 2026!
Have you been thinking about learning to knitโ€”or know someone who has?
This Saturday is the last opportunity to join our Beginner Knitting Workshops before January. We take a break from beginner classes during November and December as the holiday season gets busy.
๐Ÿงถ Beginner Workshop: 10:00 AMโ€“12:00 PM
๐Ÿงถ Level 2 Workshop: 2:00โ€“4:00 PM

If you've been waiting for the perfect time to get started, this is it! Whether you're picking up needles for the very first time or ready to build on the basics, we'd love to help you begin your knitting journey.
Reserve your spot today and start the holidays with a new skill!

๐Ÿงถ NEW! Homeschool Fiber Fridays
I'm excited to start something new this fall!
Beginning this month, we're opening the shop every Friday from 11:00 AMโ€“1:00 PM for Homeschool Fiber Fridays.
Bring your homeschoolers to explore knitting, crochet, needle felting, cross stitch, or whatever fiber craft they're interested in.
Parents, bring your own project too!
Come create, connect, and enjoy a relaxed morning with other fiber-loving families.

๐ŸŽ„ Handmade Holidays Will Be Here Before We Know It...
If you're planning handmade Christmas gifts this year...
Now's the time to start!
I'm putting the finishing touches on a Quick Christmas Gifts Class filled with projects that are fun, practical, and actually doable before the holidays.
Stay tunedโ€”details are coming soon!

As the days get cooler and our project bags get fuller, I'm looking forward to another season of learning, laughing, and creating together. I can't wait to see what this fall has in store for all of us.
Crocheters sharing tips.
Laughter around the table.
And yarn everywhere.
That's exactly what I hoped Knit Ewe Together would become.

Thank you for being part of this wonderful little community.
Happy stitching,
๐Ÿ’š Shawna
Keep on squishin'!

Teal, smoky blue, gray, olive and just a little unexpected warmth all mixed together on Tosh Sock... and Purlie has officially called dibs. ๐Ÿ˜‚
The question is: what would YOU make with it?
Socks? Shawl? Cowl? Pair it with a solid for colorwork? Or are you in the โ€œI don't know yet, but I need a skeinโ€ camp? ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคฃ

Our Arne & Carlos collection is HERE!
Weโ€™ve been waiting (not-so-patiently ๐Ÿ˜‚) for these boxes to arrive, and they are out, priced and ready for you to come squish.
If you love color, playful patterns and yarn that practically begs you to cast something onโ€ฆ youโ€™re going to want to come take a peek. ๐Ÿ‘€
Come see the new Arne & Carlos goodies!
And yesโ€ฆ adding another project to your queue during Finish Off Fall is completely acceptable. I make the rules. ๐Ÿคฃ

🍂 Welcome Back...Let's Get Cozy!

Happy Monday, friends!
After all the excitement of the Kansas City Yarn Crawl, it feels good to settle back into our regular rhythm here at Knit Ewe Together.
The shelves are full, projects are underway, and fall has officially arrived in the shop. If you've stopped in over the last week, you've probably noticed that the conversations have already shifted from summer projects to sweaters, holiday gifts, and everything we hope to finish before the end of the year.
I have a feeling this is going to be a wonderful season.

๐Ÿ‚ Finish Off Fall Is Underway!
How are those Works-In-Progress coming?
Our Finish Off Fall challenge is officially underway, and I already love seeing everyone pull those long-forgotten projects back out of their bags.
Whether it's a sweater that's missing sleeves, a shawl waiting for bind-off, or those socks you've been meaning to finish...this is your chance!
Let's cheer each other on and see how many projects we can rescue before the holidays arrive.

๐Ÿ‘ New in the Shop โ€“ Parsons' Prairie Roving!
Something exciting has arrived!
We're now carrying Parsons' Prairie roving, and I couldn't be happier to welcome another wonderful local fiber product into the shop.
Whether you're a spinner, a needle felter, or you've simply been curious about trying something new, stop in and take a look. The fibers are beautiful, and I can't wait to see what you create with them.

๐ŸŒธ Flora Adora Begins This Week!
It's almost time!
Our Flora Adora Hat Make Along kicks off this Saturday at 2:00 PM, and I can't wait to cast on with everyone.
Over the next four Saturdays we'll learn new techniques, cheer each other on, and create one beautiful hat together.
If you're participating, don't forget to bring your kit and your excitementโ€”we're going to have so much fun!  We have extra kits if you didn't get in on the pre-order, just stop in and we will get you set up!

๐ŸŽ„ Christmas Is Closer Than You Think...
I know...I know...
Nobody wants to hear the word Christmas in September. ๐Ÿ˜„
But if you're planning to give handmade gifts this year, now is the perfect time to start thinking ahead.
I'm putting the finishing touches on a Quick Christmas Gifts Class, filled with fun projects you can actually finish before December.
More details are coming very soon!

๐Ÿ‚ Purlie Watch
Purlie has been making new friends every week!
If you missed the newest collectible stitch marker during Yarn Crawl, don't worryโ€”we still have a few waiting for their forever project bags.
Once they're gone, though...that's it!

๐Ÿ‘‹ Join Us for Make & Mingle!
One of my favorite things about Knit Ewe Together isn't something we sell...
It's the friendships that grow around the table.
Whether you're knitting, crocheting, spinning, or just looking for some company while you work on your latest project, you're always welcome to pull up a chair at Make & Mingle.
You don't have to know anyone before you come...
You won't leave as a stranger. ๐Ÿ’š

As I look around the shop, I'm reminded that every season has its own rhythm.
Summer brings games and adventure.
Fall brings cozy projects, learning new skills, and gathering around the table with friends.
I'm so thankful that I get to share another season with all of you.
Happy stitching,
๐Ÿ’š Shawna
Keep on squishin'!

🧶 SATURDAY: Weekend WIP Check!

Okay, makersโ€ฆ ROLL CALL! ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿงถ

Itโ€™s Saturday, which means I want to know:

What are you working on this weekend?

Are youโ€ฆ

๐Ÿงถ Starting something new even though Finish Off Fall specifically encouraged us to finish things? ๐Ÿ˜‚
๐Ÿ‚ Being responsible and working on a WIP?
๐Ÿธ Frogging something that has officially lost the battle?
๐ŸŽ‰ FINISHING something and feeling ridiculously proud of yourself?

Drop a picture in the comments! ๐Ÿ‘‡

Bonus points if itโ€™s one of your Finish Off Fall projects! ๐Ÿ

We want to see whatโ€™s on your needles, hooks, hoops, machinesโ€ฆ whatever you're making with!

And if you need a little motivation, come hang out with us. Sometimes a room full of makers is exactly what it takes to get a few more rows done. ๐Ÿ’•

Have you been saying, “I really want to learn how to crochet…”? 👀

Wellllllโ€ฆ this might be your sign. ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿงถ

Our Crochet Class is THIS SATURDAY! ๐ŸŽ‰

Come spend a couple of hours with us, learn something new, ask all the questions, and get those hands comfortable with a hook and yarn.

And if you've tried learning from videos and ended up yelling โ€œBUT WHERE DOES THE HOOK GO?!โ€ at your screenโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜‚ this is exactly why learning in person can be so helpful!

๐Ÿ’• Bring a friend and learn together!

We still have room โ€” message us or stop by the shop to grab your spot for Saturday!

🩵🧶 PURLIE’S PICK — Finish Off Fall! 🍂

Purlie is sliding in a little late with her Thursday Pickโ€ฆ apparently she got distracted by a project she started six months ago. ๐Ÿ˜œ

This week, Purlieโ€™s Pick is FINISH OFF FALL! ๐Ÿ

She says itโ€™s time to dig through the project bags, investigate the baskets, and face those WIPs that have been quietly judging us. ๐Ÿ˜‚

For just $5 to join, youโ€™ve got six weeks to finish as many projects as you can. Every finished project earns an entry toward our grand prize AND a leaf on our Fall Finishes Tree! ๐Ÿ‚

And yesโ€ฆ if thereโ€™s a project you KNOW is never getting finished, frogging counts too โ€” up to 3 projects. Sometimes letting go is a finish. ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿงถ Knit, crochet, cross stitch, sewing, weaving & more
๐Ÿ Unlimited finishing entries
๐ŸŽ Grand Prize: $30 KET gift certificate + a large project bag filled with yarn!

Purlie wants to know: whatโ€™s lurking in YOUR project bag that needs to be finished? ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ˜‚

Bring it in and get signed up!

💚 What a Weekend! Thank You for an Amazing Kansas City Yarn Crawl!

Happy Monday, friends!

What an incredible weekend!

Whether you traveled across the city or just down the road, thank you for making Knit Ewe Together part of your Kansas City Yarn Crawl adventure.

The laughter, the yarn, the conversations, the familiar faces, and all of the new friends we met made this one of my favorite Crawl weekends yet.

From the bottom of my heart...

Thank you. ๐Ÿ’š

 

๐Ÿ˜ด Closed Tuesday

After an amazing (and very busy!) Yarn Crawl weekend, we're taking Tuesday to catch our breath, restock the shelves, and recharge.

Knit Ewe Together will be CLOSED on Tuesday, September 22.

We'll be back Wednesday morning, refreshed and ready for our next adventure!

 

๐Ÿ‚ Finish Off Fall Begins Wednesday!

The Yarn Crawl may be over...

...but that doesn't mean your projects have to stay unfinished!

Our Finish Off Fall challenge officially begins Wednesday, and it's the perfect excuse to finally finish those sweaters, shawls, socks, and WIPs that have been patiently waiting.

Let's celebrate the projects we've started by actually getting them across the finish line!

I can't wait to see what everyone finishes over the next few weeks.

 

๐Ÿ‚ Last Chance for Purlie Shirts!

We heard you!

If you missed ordering your Purlie shirt during the Crawl, we're opening orders one final time.

๐Ÿฉต Monday ONLY

Just message us, and we'll send you an invoice.

After Monday, shirt orders will officially close.

Don't miss your chance to take Purlie home!

Weekends like this remind me why I opened Knit Ewe Together in the first place.

Thank you for supporting small businesses, encouraging one another, and filling this little shop with so much joy.
