Fairy Tale Knits

On Thursday night we had the author of Fairy Tale Knits, Alison Stewart-Guinee, at the store. She shared her beautiful and creative designs with all of us. Family members of our staff played dress up and they were soooo cute!

Savannah and Jackson as Hansel and Gretel...

This cracked me up! We told the kids to walk around the table. Well, they did. RIGHT

around the table, meaning each and every lady moved their chair back to make way. It was too funny to see the determined little ones force all of that yarn out of the way!

Clara and Cavan as Romeo and Juliet (if I remember correctly)...

Grace as Little Red Riding Hood.

 

Hood up...a great little tip from Allison. For a stronger seam: bind off and then immediately pick the stitches back up. This is how she constructed the hood.

Cute little Madelyn.

Jackson in the chainmail.

Cavan the pirate! This is a bag that is calling Liz's name!

The Renaissance Man

The Flower Fairy

This is a little blurry, but I had to post it.

That is Vanny swinging down the runway as the Little Mermaid.

Clara the Snow Queen

She LOVED wearing this. Alison is lucky she got it back!

Savannah was thrilled to have Alison sign her book for Ya Ya.
