UPDATED Important Message!
Location change for December!
Knitsmiths cannot meet at the Booksmith during the month of December, due to special sales they want to set up downstairs. We have worked out a plan for alternate locations for the first three Sundays in December. Three knitters have offered to host Knitsmiths at their homes in Coolidge Corner and nearby - thanks, ladies!
Please email me at alison AT knitsmiths DOT us for exact info on where we'll be meeting.
See you then!

Happy Halloween!
Lisa knit this viking hat for her son's Halloween costume (her daughter modeled it for us). She based it on the Bella Knitting Viking Hat pattern. Lisa's daughter insisted Lisa put on the hat for a photo too!

So fun!

Betsey looks fabulous in her lace patterned wrap/cardigan, doesn't she?! She finished this with a little help and support from the Knitsmiths gals. Way to stick with it, Betsey!

May's been working on this delightful baby sweater pattern from Drops. She's finished this one in pale greens and yellows and begun a second in brighter colors.

Lisa sent me a picture she took of her brother in the handsome cabled vest she knitted for him. She made up the pattern herself and the fit is perfect!

Just in time for Fall, Sabitha has finished this gorgeous cabled cardigan (from a Drops design). She made a few changes to the pattern - as she always does - and it came out perfectly - as it always does!

While I was away, Alexis finished more fabulous Dr. Who-style dudes. You remember Alexis' Dr. Who dudes, right? Well now she's made some characters from Torchwood.

Details on just who these two handsome fellows (Jack and Ianto) are can be found on her blog along with them in some pretty compromising pictures!
