Knit and Crochet Show

We are very excited to be participating in the Knit and Crochet Show this fall at the Convention Center in Portland, September 11-14. Visit us at booth #415!

At the show we will be featuring handpainted yarns from Spinnemann, Stitch Jones and needle felting kits from Woolpets.

We'll have fiber artists, Bob and Meghan from Spinnemann, in our booth spinning yarn during the show! How fun!

And Laurie from Woolpets will be doing a book signing in our booth on Saturday from 1-3pm. We have all of her needle felting kits available in the shop right now. They are so stinkin' cute!

It will be a very fun weekend! We'll keep you posted on how things are going!

Read about us!

The Naked Sheep was mentioned in a special section of the Oregonian featuring North and Northeast Portland businesses on Alberta, Mississippi and Killingsworth. It was in the Sunday paper on July 27. There was a great photo of people knitting on the front couches during knit nite, as well as 4 lovely little paragraphs about us. Read to the end, they saved the best for last!

Entrelac Baby Blanket

As you may remember, I really love to do entrelac. I think it's such a cool technique. Interesting to do, and really fabulous results.

Here's my latest creation, a cheerful baby blanket using 220 Superwash Handpaints. I used 1 skein each of colors 9857-9863. I think it looks like candy!

I finished the blanket, so now I'm working on writing the pattern. It should be available in a week or so. I think it would make a fun class this fall at The Naked Sheep Knit Shop!

Check out our awesome windows!

Thought I'd share pics of the beautiful shop windows at The Naked Sheep Knit Shop!
