Knitter's Review
June 11, 2015
Inside Ute Lennartz-Lembeck's knitted teepee

I'm back from TNNA with a belly full of Jeni's ice cream and a suitcase full of intriguing new yarns for fall.

We have British breeds, American wools, handspun cashmere from Afghanistan, a sock blend from New Zealand, a clever creation from Germany, sensational sparkles from Rowan, and much more—plus a clever new accessory for storing them all. Here's a preview.

Coming Up
The Estes Park Wool Market takes place this weekend in Estes Park, Colorado. Up in Colfax, Iowa, the 11th annual Iowa Sheep and Wool Festival will pack the Jasper County Fairgrounds, while the Butternut Hill Campground in Bouckville, New York, will be equally jammed for the fifth-annual Central New York Fiber Festival. You'll find details and many more things to do in our extensive online calendar of events.

In the Forums: Dancing Sleeve to Sleeve
Flicka wants to make a sideways-knit sweater. Her hangup is that the fabric always seems to bunch up under the arms. Any advice?

Summer Learning
How's your yarn knowledge? Need some inspiration to tidy up that stash? I have two Craftsy classes to offer you. The following links will get you 50% off my Know Your Yarn or Stashbusting class. Happy learning!

As always, I thank you for letting me be a part of your knitting life.

We'll talk again in two weeks!
