Not yet, but I can describe it a little if that would be helpful. It will essentially micro stripe between the dark navy and brown tones with a stitch to two stitches of white popping up periodically. I will definitely post once I have samples.

Four twisted skeins of the On My Own colorway lay on a white board background, with that image laid over a screenshot from Les Mis from the same named song, showing darkened streets and Γ‰ponine standing. The words β€œon my own” are on top of the image in grey.

Where are my Les Mis fans??? New On My Own colorway is inspired by her dark night walk through the sleeping streets. Moody brown & gray tones at the base transition into dark blue tones, with 2 white spots.

I loved the book β€œ how to knit in 50 squares. β€œ when I was starting out… I basically taught myself with that book and some YouTube videos. But definitely check for your local yarn store. They often offer classes.

A work in progress knit showing vibrant neon colors on a gray background in a science motif. At the bottom are brains, followed by flasks with a neon green liquid and at the top a bright yellow ruler with black markings.

Working on a new cowl using the Science Doodle Deck and our new coordinating Science Lab mini set with a gray base tonal. I’m in love with the little brains!!

I’m so sorry but that was a limited edition run and it is just recently sold out. I am working on a new concept based on that colorway though, so please stay tuned!

What weights are you used to using? I can give comparable examples for what DK and fingering represent. This chart should also help: i.pinimg.com/736x/2e/ec/2...

Books get banned at various local levels that I’ve seen anyways. I’m a reseller of the tote so I do not have a list to provide you.

No they are banned books… you can see the titles on part of the bag.

I understand and respect your perspective. Designed to show solidarity, protest, etc is more the intent, I believe. In any event, we would never carry anything we considered disrespectful.
