you like to enhance your knitting skills?
Kollage Yarns has introduced the Feed
Your Creativity Program designed to take your knitting to the next
level. If you can knit and purl, increase, decrease, and perhaps have
tried ribbing and other stitch patterns, you are an Advanced Beginner and
are ready to try double-pointed and knitting in the round, cables and
fair-isle.
If you are an Intermediate Knitter, use your skills to
experiment with a variety of fibers such as milk, cotton, corn, soy and
angora/silk.
Each month a new kit complete with yarn & pattern
will be available. A limited number of kits is shipped each month in
assorted colors. Sign
up today for Feed Your Creativity email alerts to get advance notice of
kit availability and free tips on knitting the patterns
