My fellow crocheters! I give you the best-est basic crochet stitch sampler EVER!

Like our Queen Anne’s Lace project, this scarf is beautiful with jeans or a little black dress. Crocheted from Arucania’s Ranco and Noro Sock, there is enough color to hold your interest and make the final project look much more complicated than is actually the case. We’re taking all comers in the class, from rank beginners to seasoned hook-wielders looking for a bit of elegant simplicity. The class is $48 and includes the yarn and pattern.

Here at L&B we have the answer to the hot summer question that’s on everyone’s mind: What can I make from a single ball of Noro Kureyon? And the awe-inspiring answer is revealed in this precious diaper cover. The two part class will be held Saturday, June 5th from 10:00am-12:00pm and Saturday, June 12th from 10:00am-11:00am. I love the long color runs of all Noro’s yarns, and Kureyon knits up satisfyingly quick. Join us for this class and learn to knit what shall surely become a lucky baby’s new favorite fashion accessory. Wool is anti-microbial, so this cute cover only needs washed when soiled. It also breathes like a dream to keep the air flowing around those cute bottoms until the fall. We’re knitting a size small, but the fit is rather generous on these. My own son wore an exact replica of our class sample from a few months old to well over a year. Pair it with your baby’s cleverest t-shirt and you’ve got the best dressed bum on the block. The class runs $40 and includes the pattern and your favorite color of Noro Kureyon.
