Ch-ch-ch-CHANGES!
Hey Folks! 2015 is SUCH an exciting and busy Summer, if it seems that at times The ModeKnit Yarn Team of Annie & Kathleen (& Becca part time!) has been incommunicado, it’s because we’re crazy busy.

Fiber Love In LoveLand
Interweave YarnFest was held at the Embassy Suites hotel and conference center in Loveland, CO. The weather turned gloomy with snow and rain, so it was great to have everything under one roof. The classrooms were right near the market, our room was right upstairs in the fancy glass elevator.
GAME OF THRONES!
We’ve chosen eight compelling Game of Throne inspirations for this latest colorway in the NO SPOILERS line, we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
I’ve read the books, I’ve watched the programs MULTIPLE times, I have my favorite characters, I’ve engaged in online discussion forums about them, I follow the actors and production people for the show on Twitter, and I’ve even had one dream about dragons. I am a proud GOT nerd.
Wednesday Wonders Round-up: The Socks!
One of the most satisfying things about making hand-dyed yarn is seeing the garments our customers create!

Claire’s Cabled Capelet – FREE!
I LOVE Outlander! I’ve loved the books by Diana Gabaldon for years, and I’m totally in love with the Starz Mini Series (which is incredibly well done, small costume issues aside – huge, bulky knit cowls, I’m looking at you…) But overall the details are perfect, the story is exceptional, and if you’re watching it, …
