The Bonnie Tee in Berroco's Chai

We've been busy transforming the store for the upcoming Spring/Summer knitting season, and we've got a new yarn and pattern to share with you!

Chai from Berroco is a dk weight yarn made with a blend 
of 
56% linen and 44% silk. Since the two fibers absorb the dye differently, the resulting fabric has a slightly stonewashed look with a tiny bit of sheen, and the linen gives it a perfect summery drape.


We love the everyday wearability of the Bonnie Tee, which has an elegant lace motif that begins at the neck edge and then trails into the bodice. We love the layering possibilities!

Knitted Wit's HerStory


We're a teensy bit late to the Knitted Wit HerStory collection, but we're catching up! 

For 2021, the HerStory focus is women who make a difference! Many of the women Knitted Wit plans on honoring this year are leaders within their spheres of influence, whether it be city, county, or country. It will be an exciting year, and we're so happy to join in on the celebration! 

Each month, we'rereceiving a limited number of skeins. Each colorway has been directly inspired by an amazing woman leader. We couldn't decide on which weight of yarn to go with, so we just decided to stock all three: Sock, DK and Worsted!
