as we prepare the last installment of the über-fun pairings club—and we are totally going to do another round of this one in the future—we are hard at work planning our next fiber journey, venturing into the fiber wilds with the bare naked knitspot 2017 club as your guide.

after skipping a year, the BNK is back by popular demand—it’s the club most-requested  by previous participants. i am SO excited about the menu we’ve got lined up for our fourth iteration of BNK, which is obviously a favorite; we are going around the world to places we’ve not traveled before and “tasting” new fibers in each one.

HA! none of them are shown here, but the range of colors in this photo tells a story of sophistication—there is SO much color and texture and luxury to be experienced along the way; are you ready?

we’ll be working with suppliers new to us as well as offering some selections from our own bare naked wools—but i am thrilled to tell you that as of this writing, every single one of our club picks will be custom spun in unique blends just for us—you’ll need to join the club to get them first. between now and the time we begin shipping in mid-february, you can let your mind run wild with possibilities.

for this series, we are focusing on lace shawls and scarves, also a favorite of clubbies (as well as many knitters who are not yet clubbies, but hopefully planning to be). we’ll do easy lace and some that is more challenging (that’s why being part of the club is so great—a support system), a variety of constructions, and we’ll work with all yarn weights, but none so fine that you can’t manage. i’m very excited about this design challenge and about knitting the projects myself!

this is going to be fun. but don’t take my word for it—visit our swinging ravelry clubhouse, where our warm and friendly group will surround you with assurance—as well and fun and games. also check out the club web page where david explains everything you need to know about joining up. if you still have questions, email us ANY time and someone will help you out.

  1. This is the club that’s caused me to finally sucumb to temptation–really looking forward to it! Of course, now I have to actually finish Physallis by mid-February. And Pine & Ivy. And Ondele…but hey–it’s good to have a deadline, right?

  2. You have been a blogging overachiever in this final week of 2016! Thanks for all the inspiration this week and this year!
