Store Demons
Posted by Yvonne on July 5th, 2010
Yes, really — store demons. We sometimes will open the store and discover yarn lying in the middle of the aisle. We’re not sure if the yarn is trying to make a run for it, or if there are gnomes or, well, demons in the store flinging things around. That, however, is not what we want to talk about today.
What we want to discuss is the Stora Dimun shawl, a pattern from Cheryl Oberle’s Folk Shawls. It wasn’t so long ago that a group of us decided to cast on 449 stitches and knit miles of garter stitch. Since the May 3 cast on, we’ve had many of completed shawls parade through our doors.
This is Sarah L.’s Stora, knit from Aktion Jawoll sock yarn.
This is David A.’s Stora, knit from Brown Sheep Nature Spun Sport.
As of this writing, we also have completed Stora’s from Karen L., Carla, and myself. We are hoping to host a “Stora Trunk Show,” where the completed shawls will be on display. Keep an eye on our blog for further information!
