New knitting parties with Brooklyn General Store!
Join us for a brand new Knit-Along we're cohosting with Brooklyn General Store!
Last summer we at Argyle had so much fun collaborating with Brooklyn General Store for our knit-alongs of the "Brooklyn Blossom" and "BK All Day" shawls that we have teamed up again this year for another big event. It's the Brooklyn Knitting Collective!
Here's Esther with Catherine of Brooklyn General co-modeling this fall knit-along's garment!
Check out the full calendar below.
It's always free to attend, just RSVP!

Here it is: The Brownstone Ivy!
We at Argyle and Brooklyn General Store are delighted that super-talented knitwear designer Lesley Ann Robinson of Knit Graffiti Designs custom designed this gorgeous shawl pattern just for our autumn event!
We used two skeins of Hedgehog Fibres, one skein of Black Elephant and one skein of Life in the Long Grass, but any 4 skeins of fingering yarn will do. We have kits with our colors (pictured here) and the card stock pattern available in both shops and online.
(If you're thinking: "But I like both shops. I don't which one I should buy the kit from," don't worry! We're splitting the sales halfsies no matter which store you order it from!)
The Brownstone Ivy is an exciting brioche lace shawl that would keep changing and keep the knitter truly engaged. A brioche lace pattern twists and grows with the shawl, mimicking vines of ivy growing up the side of an old brownstone in Brooklyn.
What's a Knit-Along?
A Knit-Along is when a community of knitters decides to all work on the same project at the same time, helping, teaching, and encouraging each other as they go.
Stay tuned: There will be a contest with a great prize from both stores- Details to come!
