Noro Madara color 1 has been coveted and illusive. 🩵💙❤️🩷 When we see it is going to be in stock, we order big! Three great designs using Madara 1 are School Supplies, Cardigan No 8, and Lakes Cardigan. We love them all! We have this yarn posted in our webshop and there are otter shades trickling in all the time as well!!

Looking back over my 2025 diary of pictures for a beautiful sunset to mark the end of the year, gets me a bit sentimental. 2025 pics show LOTS of yarn, the years adventures, our beautiful surroundings, loved ones, and the incredible creative energy that happens at Close Knit every single day. ❤️❤️❤️ As we embark on 2026 we are so incredibly thankful to you all for ushering us into our 21st year of business! ❤️❤️❤️ Close Knit’s 20th birthday was a couple weeks back and we’ve happily been too busy to mention it! With a big, deep breath in the New Year, we plan to have a wee celebration to celebrate the next 20! 🎉 🎊 🩷
From all of us at Close Knit we wish you all the very best in 2026 and to say how thankful we are that you are here! We are closed New Year’s Day.
#happy new year

Lisa made this sweet snow woman from Ravelry pattern Miss Snow out of our Dye for Me Happy Feet Shimmer from plus some bits and bobs of other stash:) ⛄️❄️⛄️
Just a quick note on HOLIDAY HOURS at Close Knit over the next few weeks!
Normal hours with these exceptions:
December 24 - 11-3, no Open Knit Night. December 25 - Closed.
December 31 - No Open Knit Night. January 1 - Closed. We hope to see you soon over the holidays and that you have some lovely days with friends and family! 🎄🌲🎄
Are you dreaming of a little “selfish” knitting once the holidays are over? Perhaps you will receive a gift certificate from Close Knit from the perfect gift giver? 🥰. Well! Might we suggest you peruse our restock of some very hard to restock yarn from. We have most shades of this special yarn, Isager Soft, heavily stocked up including the illusive E6S shade. This one is used with lace silk mohair color 6 (which is a beautiful barely pink shade we hope is heading our way soon) for Sweater No. 33. We have lots of other colors in both yarns though too! We love this cozy sweater design!

Lauren finished her yearly Christmas stocking using the really sweet pattern series by Allison Lutes, Woodland Stockings. She used cascade 220 again and we have many shades to choose from! #cascade220 #knitachristmasstocking #knittingfortheholidays #ravelrypattern
Another December birthday at Close Knit! Claudia knitted the Terrazzo Sweater a design with Silk Garden Sock Solo and Silk Mohair! Sooo lovely! 💙🩵💙🩵 We also noted a NEW must have hat by same designer this week on Ravelry using the same combinations of yarn… The Terrazzo Hat! We have the Noro yarn in the shop only and the mohair on line. Feel free to contact us for what shades we have in stock from recent shipment. Beautiful sweater Claudia!!

We have quite a number of Birthdays in December at Close Knit! Eleanor quick and knit herself a birthday sweater when released the cutest pattern called School Supplies. She used Madara for this design and so did Eleanor. 🩷 This pic of the incredible fuschia she chose does not do justice to this yarn shade!! Looks so perfect on you Eleanor! 🎂 😘🩷

Birthday girl, Amanda, gifted herself the Masie Scarf! So cute and cozy! With Tvinni and Boucle, one ball each, it quickly knits up on a US8! Linda Xiao’s pattern is on Ravelry. Now Amanda needs a convertable or a trip to Paris with that sweet headscarf 💁!
