Amanda brought out this pair of great socks on Thursday to show everyone. Amanda’s beautiful daughter is here helping her model the socks, while her son is munching away on some snacks in the background. Another great project completed by her and her crew!

Linda was back at Thursday Knitting after a few weeks away. She brought with her a beautiful pair of socks she finished while spending some time with the family. Great job Linda and good to have you back!

Brenda and Manda were both surprised to look out the shop windows and see these two beauties sitting in the driveway! These two couples brought down their classic cars from Ontario and were touring the Valley and enjoying the sunshine. They stopped in to say hello to us and hear a bit about how the shop used to be an old car garage. Enjoy the rest of your stay!

Jan is at it again. This Thursday she brought in her completed shawl to show us. This shawl was started by everyone’s dear friend and GVF employee Jali Giroux, using her own handspun yarn. Unfortunately, Jali passed away before she was able to finish this project, but Jan stepped up to the challenge. We all know Jali would have been delighted at the effort Jan put into this, and how beautiful the shawl is. Thank you Jan for sharing this with us.

Leah stopped in to show us her socks she had completed using the skeins of Nyoni she had purchased. After knitting her very first pair on the right, she then used Simple Skyp Socks from Ravelry, and knit up her second pair on the left. Great job Leah!

Kelly is finding a way to beat this heat this summer with this beautiful silk short sleeved shirt. Knit with Handmaiden’s Swiss Mountain Mulberry Tussah in the natural colour, this project is not only enjoyable to look at, but great to feel as well. The detailing around the neck finishes the project off with a bit a of class. Thanks for sharing Kelly, beautiful job!

Colin and a few of his friends braved the heat and stopped into the shop this week. While the weather was too much for his mother, Caroll, Colin did bring along two of her lace shawls to show us. What beautiful pieces they were! The first was a Fleece Artist yarn made into a peacock lace pattern shawl which took two months to complete. The second was a gorgeous cream coloured alpaca yarn that was a nice weight in your hands. These were beautiful pieces and everyone in the shop had to have a feel. Thanks so much Colin for brining these up and Caroll we look forward to seeing the next amazing creation that comes off your needles!

Frances popped into the shop to show us her completed jacket. Knit with a mohair, linen and nylon blend, she finished this jacket off with a skein of Planet Earth beaded yarn to add a bit of sparkle. The pattern is from Wild Fibres Winter 2010. Beautiful Frances!

Raeanne was very excited to be done her Trina jacket, a present knit for her mother. Trina is a Fleece Artist kit using two skeins of Baby Alpaca and four skeins of Blue Face Aran. We know your mother will love it Raeanna! Great Job.

You may remember Jan showing us her finished baby garments for Lily Hana here. Well now we all get to see sweet little Lily Hana modeling them for us! The only thing cuter than baby knits, are babies actually wearing them! Looks like a perfect fit Jan, great work!
