Knit & Purl

 

Cast on! There is little as comforting, sentimental or downright charming as handknits. Perhaps your aunt painstakingly knit you a first blanket or cardigan sweater. Maybe you are the girl on the subway with needles flying, oblivious to your surroundings and wrapped up in the meditative process of counting stitches and rows as you work to finish your latest project. Even if you’re not the crafty sort, there’s still plenty of joy to be had in holding or wearing something that has been lovingly created with a meticulous series of loops and knots. From DIY kits for beginners, fully fashioned clothing and accessories, to blankets and home accents, Shoppe Object offers plenty of knits to fall for. The squishyness, the softness, the drape and the hand, in yarns pulled from every kind of fiber, nubbly or smooth…did someone say Fall?
