Alison came across this Beanpole Beanie pattern in Ravelry and Inge made it during the Holidays. This free pattern is downloadable from Ravelry courtesy of Rachel Weaver. If you cannot download it, email us.
The special feature is, that this beanie is knit in 2 different gauges and sits tight on your head. Good not only for the 'Windy City' but also for our sometimes pretty blustery West Coast. You also learn how to do the cabled rib pattern without a cable needle!
Inge knit this Beanpole Beanie with 2 balls of Rowan Classic Yarns Cashsoft Aran.
The Yarn Department of the Needle & Arts Centre expanded to become one of the most beautiful yarn stores with one of the biggest selections of quality yarns in Western Canada! Supported by several highly qualified knitting and needlework consultants, we offer drop-ins and individual knitting and crochet consulting every day. Tea and coffee are free in our Knit Cafe which is the place for learning, for exchange of experience and for relaxation. Visit www.needlenart.com.

Linda's Sweater
... look how proud she is after she finished the sweater for her son. She visited the store to show the beautiful gift off, after several knit-along Saturday sessions here.
It's called "Guernsey Guys" from "Aran & Celtics Knits" (Best of Knitter's Magazine) and was done in Berroco Vintage. Congratulations, Linda!
