We know that some parts of the US have experienced a more hash winter than others, but it's probably safe to say that we're all equally excited to spot signs of spring - and sock yarn shawls are certainly in that category!<br />
<br />
There is currently a <a href="http://graceakhrem.com/2014/03/striped-tooth-shawl-giveaway/" target="_blank">KAL</a> happening for Grace Akhrem's excellent new <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/striped-tooth-shawl" target="_blank">Striped Tooth Shawl</a> design, which uses two colors of our <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=LaJolla" target="_blank">La Jolla</a> yarn (shown here in Byzantine Gold and Orange Amber).<br />

Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a great holiday and that 2014 is off to a wonderful start. This is a great time of year to assess your crafting and decide what your goals are for 2014: Are you just starting your knitting or crocheting journey? Would you like to learn how to read charts or knit cables? Is there a type of project you've been wanting to make, but you just haven't had the confidence to cast on? We'd love to hear what your knitting and crocheting aspirations are for the new year - and we'd like to help you make them happen! We're always adding to our <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/baahyarn/tips-techniques-tutorials/" target="_blank">Tips, Techniques and Tutorials board on Pinterest</a>; you can also read <a href="http://www.baahyarn.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-importance-of-swatching-in-making.html" target="_blank">this guest post about swatching</a> for your sweater project or check out this <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=YU8woyDIgN8" target="_blank">elastic cast-on tutorial video</a> featuring our yarn for a little inspiration and encouragement!<br />
<br />
Whatever you resolve to try in the new year, we hope that so-called 'selfish' knitting also makes the list! As wonderful as it is to make projects for those in need or loved ones, it's important to also treat yourself to a special project using a yarn you love. We'd like to invite you to <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/baah-yarn-knitters/2799690" target="_blank">knit along with us in the Baah Yarn Ravelry group</a>, where we are hosting a come-as-you-are KAL for the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/annie-oday" target="_blank">Annie O'Day</a> shawl pattern; the largest size uses two skeins of our <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/baah-la-jolla" target="_blank">La Jolla</a> yarn, or you can opt to knit the smaller size using just one skein of <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/baah-la-jolla" target="_blank">La Jolla</a>! And, of course, there is a chance to win a yarny prize for participating!<br />

Hat + GiveawayWe're thrilled to be today's stop on the <a href="http://www.hollaknits.com/blog/" target="_blank">Holla Knits Accessories blog tour</a> - thanks for joining us! Our new <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=Wosted" target="_blank">Shasta Worsted</a> was used to make the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/kapom-hat" target="_blank">KaPOM</a> hat by Mari Chiba, and we'd like to give you a closer look at this holla-worthy design PLUS a chance to win three skeins of our <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=Wosted" target="_blank">Shasta Worsted</a> to knit a <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/kapom-hat" target="_blank">KaPOM</a> hat for yourself!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PUCHgjTT1fc/UoqWrCiva6I/AAAAAAAAAEY/PDicU_3d55U/s1600/kapom+sketch+swatch.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="173" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PUCHgjTT1fc/UoqWrCiva6I/AAAAAAAAAEY/PDicU_3d55U/s320/kapom+sketch+swatch.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
While swatching with our yarns and using various stitch pattern and color combinations, Mari was inspired to create a bonnet-style hat which would be an updated version of the earflap hat. It's simple to knit, beginning first with a brim which is knit flat, then joining to be knit in the round for the colorwork crown.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HmCxg0A1g4A/UoqbvvdeVDI/AAAAAAAAAEo/hCOR1NnUagM/s1600/kapom3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HmCxg0A1g4A/UoqbvvdeVDI/AAAAAAAAAEo/hCOR1NnUagM/s320/kapom3.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
This adorable bonnet is a fresh update to the earflap hat, and it's also a great way to give colorwork knitting a try. On windy days, you'll be thankful for the braided i-cord ties which will keep your ears warm - and we can't think of a better way to stay stylishly toasty than a colorful hat topped with a cheerful pom pom!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6z_KvzImfn8/UoqcA8zxV0I/AAAAAAAAAEw/k4yIawQU0Cc/s1600/kapom4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6z_KvzImfn8/UoqcA8zxV0I/AAAAAAAAAEw/k4yIawQU0Cc/s320/kapom4.JPG" width="315" /></a></div>
It's also a great last-minute project to make for someone special on your gift-knitting list. Our easy-care superwash merino yarn is a great choice for gift projects since you won't have to worry about the gift recipient accidentally felting your wearable work of art!<br />

<i>There is nothing quite so disappointing for a knitter as hours of dedicated work that results in a poorly fitting sweater. On top of rarely getting worn, that sad, non-fitting sweater could be the reason you’re afraid to try knitting another sweater. But there is hope! There is a way to make sure every sweater you knit from this day forward comes out exactly the size you anticipate; the secret lies in a seemingly trivial square of knitting: the gauge swatch. </i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i>In today's post, we have guest blogger Johnny Vasquez from Yarn Nation to share his best swatching tips in preparation for next month's <a href="http://30daysweater.com/baah" target="_blank">30-Day Sweater Challenge KAL</a> (more info at the end of this post). Enjoy! </i></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
I’ll be honest, when I started knitting and knit my first sweater I didn’t even know you were supposed to check gauge. I just assumed that it was a nice little piece of extra information they had thought to include in the pattern I was using. I figured that when they said gauge = 5 stitches per inch that they meant that if I used the yarn they used and the needles called for I would end up with 5 stitches per inch. Good to know. I could see no reason that that little number would have any effect on my knitting. </div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>This is why gauge matters!</i></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="p1">
After I completed my first couple sweaters and none of them fit properly, I did some investigating online. I learned pretty quickly that gauge was not just another number on your pattern and that you were actually <i>meant</i> to check your gauge. Well, that certainly explained a lot!</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Let me be the one to tell you if no one else has (or if you’ve been ignoring them) - <b>you need to check your gauge if you want a sweater that fits!!</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>

<div class="p1">
Gauge - how many stitches and rows you are getting per inch of your knitting - is the single most important factor when it comes to making your sweater turn out like the pattern you’re working from. Knitting patterns are basically a series of math problems that the designer has been kind enough to work out for you. The number which all of these equations are based on just happens to be your gauge: therefore, if you aren’t getting exactly the same gauge as the pattern calls for, your sweater will not end up the dimensions listed in your pattern. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Let's look at an example. If my gauge is supposed to be 5 stitches per inch, then I would have a total of 20 stitches over 4 inches. Let's say that for some reason I didn’t check my gauge to make sure it is perfect and I’m actually getting 5.5 stitches per inch. That means that over four inches I would have <i>22 stitches</i>. No big deal, its just two extra stitches, right? But wait! If you multiply that over enough inches to fit around a body you would end up with <i>less than 3 extra inches</i>, all because you are off by a half a stitch! </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>So now that you know the problem, here’s how to fix it!</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-y38agHDbk6k/UkMRJWZAzbI/AAAAAAAAADE/zzDpasxfbvc/s1600/guidetoswatch.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-y38agHDbk6k/UkMRJWZAzbI/AAAAAAAAADE/zzDpasxfbvc/s320/guidetoswatch.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="p1">
Make a gauge swatch by casting on 20-30 stitches (enough to get a swatch that is 5” across). Knit in your desired stitch pattern until your swatch measures 5” from the cast on edge. Bind off all stitches. Now wash and block your swatch like you plan to wash your finished sweater; this will help to even out the stitches and show how your fabric reacts to washing - it may be surprising. After you wash your swatch, lay it on a flat surface to dry. Once it is completely dry, use a ruler and measure how many stitches and rows you are getting per inch. I like to measure in a couple different places on my swatch and average the numbers so I get the most accurate measurement.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
If you have checked your gauge and it isn’t exactly what is called for in the pattern, adjust your needle size and make <i>another</i> swatch. <b>Do this until you have reached your desired gauge. </b>If you are not getting enough stitches per inch, that means your stitches are<i> too large</i>, so you should try going down a needle size. If you are getting too many stitches per inch, that means your stitches are<i> too small</i>, so you should try going up a needle size. </div>
<div class="p2">

<br />
Located in sunny Oceanside, California, <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/awp.php?ln=713388" target="_blank">Baah Yarn</a> began as a hobby fueled by a passion for color and a love for knitting. Mira used her background in graphic design and fine arts to create her first yarns which were sold at her local yarn store. After receiving a lot of encouragement from the staff, customers, and her husband Jeff, Mira turned her hobby into a business in 2011.<br />
<br />
Baah started with just one local shop in San Diego carrying our <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=LaJolla" target="_blank">La Jolla</a> sock yarn. In the months to come, more stores began to place orders: first, a few other local shops, followed by yarns stores in Los Angeles and San Francisco beginning to carry <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/awp.php?ln=713388" target="_blank">Baah Yarn</a>, too. Pretty soon, a yarn rep was hired, we joined <a href="http://www.tnna.org/default.asp?" target="_blank">TNNA</a>, and shops in Washington state joined the growing list of retailers.<br />

At our first <a href="http://www.tnna.org/default.asp?" target="_blank">TNNA Trade Show,</a> the Baah booth was hidden away in a corner, but folks still flocked to admire the yarns on display. We received rave reviews for the color range, which Mira created by using the same layering techniques employed in watercolor and oil painting on yarn. Having taught both of these techniques while living in Jakarta for a number of years, Mira's skill with color mixing, color theory, and creating shadows and highlights created a palette of complex colors which convey movement and mood.<br />
<br />
Many of the colorways are inspired by nature, and our line of superwash Merino yarns has expanded to three weights, all of which are named for places in California known for their great beauty: <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=LaJolla" target="_blank">La Jolla</a> (fingering), <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=Sonoma" target="_blank">Sonoma</a> (DK), and our new <a href="http://baahyarn.com/users/editorialdisp.php?mn=713388&fn=Wosted" target="_blank">Shasta</a> (worsted) for fall. We've attended 4 <a href="http://www.tnna.org/default.asp?" target="_blank">TNNA</a> trade shows in two years, all the while continuing to grow and expand. Our last trade show earlier this summer was a huge success, and we're looking forward to the January TNNA show, where we'll have a double booth for the first time ever!<br />
<br />
We're so pleased to share our passion for color with our fellow knitters and crocheters, who are the reason we do what we do. Thank you for joining us!<br />
