Rosencrantz, by Noriko Ho // Guildenstern, by Cory Ellen Boberg
Every year, The Fiber Gallery participates in our local Puget Sound LYS Tour, and this year, my friend and coworker Noriko & I decided to team up and create not one, but two patterns in celebration of the Tour!
Noriko's Rosencrantz design uses two strands of yarn and 3 colors to create a cool, marled effect, while my Guildenstern design uses two-row stripes and 4 colors to create a color-shifting stripe sequence. They both feature Queensland Collection United, a wool/cotton blend, and have easy finishing for speedy knitting and wearability.
We've gotten such great feedback about these two designs that we decided to host a little Knitalong at the shop, starting this Sunday and meeting once a month this summer!
I've already knit two Guildensterns in super different colorways, and I hope that KAL will be a chance for folks to play with color, share their awesome projects, and get some fiber community love (and prizes!) for participating.
Wanna join us?
Come to any or all of the following sessions with your Rosencrantz or Guildenstern project (OR BOTH :D), and Noriko & I will be there with snacks, prizes, and our fab selves to answer any questions you might have!
Kickoff - Sunday, June 11, 3-5 pm. (Yep, that's this Sunday!!)
Support Session - Sunday, July 23, 3-5 pm.
Finale Party - Sunday, August 20, 3-5 pm.
Need the pattern?
Didn't get a chance to pick up the pattern during the tour? An eBook of both patterns is available on Ravelry at a special price until August 21, 2017, after which you'll be able to buy each pattern individually.
Have questions?
Contact us at the shop, or boop on over to Noriko's and my new Ravelry group, Nori & Cory!
It should be super fun - I hope to see you there, friends!
