My New Project
Working on a new bag and thought I would share. I have been seriously getting into intarsia designing. It is alot of fun and doesn’t take gobbs of yarn. You can just draw out a design on graph paper and then follow line by line. It gets the creative juices really flowing because you can basically create anything. So here’s my Beagle Bag….

What’s Up at Knitting Board warehouse?
HI, We have been really busy!
HSN was a great time for us, and going to Florida gives me an opportunity to visit my family. We just celebrated the birth of my second granddaughter in 14 months. So now we have Jaedyn who is 14 months old and her new sister, Madison, was born on Oct 6, 09. They are both beautiful, but that’s coming from a proud grandma.
Thanks for everyone that watched the HSN shows and cheered us on.
Also, Jo-Ann’s super stores (200 of them) will be having a live in-store demo of the knitting board on Saturday, Nov 7. If you live near one of these super stores, be sure to check it out. Take your knitting board and join the fun of sharing all that you now know.
The holidays are coming up quickly. What are you all knitting? I’m excited about some of the great holiday yarns that are out. I’m currently working with the holiday Homespun from Lion Brand-a scarf with some snowflakes on it. I’ll post it once I have it complete.
We are also once again doing a drive for women awareness. If you want to make some hats or scarves and send them in, we will get them out to needy women and children. We still love to send warm items to our military for the winter. Let me know if you can help.
Watch for some new patterns coming to Free Pattern Library in November.

Getting Ready for the Holidays.
Hi Everyone,
Its time to start thinking about holiday knitted gifts. If you are hunting for some new projects, we encourage you to share your thoughts and we can all come up with some great gifts knit on our knitting boards. I think knitted toys are great gifts as well as simple scarves and hats. We have knitters ready to plan some new patterns, just hope everyone will share some ideas.
Delay in shipping orders.
Just to let everyone know that our warehouse will be closed from Saturday Aug 15 thru Sunday, Aug 23. We will not be shipping during this week. We will try to keep your emails answered as we attend to some important business. Your patience is appreciated. Thanks, Pat
the Tadpole-the baby. Newest member of knitting boards.
Our newest member of the knitting board family is only 6″ long and 1.5″ wide. It’s fine gauge which means the intarsia designs really come out looking great! The spacing between the pins is 5/16″ like the small gauge boards, but the 2 rows of pins are only 1″ apart. It’s so much fun to work with because you don’t even need to put it down-just turn your hand around to hook over the 2 sides. Portable?? Oh, yes, it can fit into your smaller handbags, and go with you everywhere. Fun projects? It comes with 7 easy projects just to get you going and more are coming to the free library every week. So, if you’re looking for a great gift for yourself, or maybe thinking ahead for the holidays, check out this cute little package.
It comes with a new! knit hook and pattern booklet with illustrated instructions and the 7 starter projects. Lots of Fun!
