Socks are a Scam!! Says Blue Moon Bank

February 13, 2007 by Laura Nixon

fall

According to the Bank that Blue Moon used to receive cash and credit card payment for the Rockin’ Sock Club 2007.

I can’t believe that a bank actually thought a sock yarn club is a scam, because, after all, no one buys THAT much sock yarn. Yeah, right – what rock have they lived under?

Blue Moon’s bank refunded all monies paid into the the Rockin’ Sock Club. Blue Moon issued a letter to all members of the club and asked that all bloggers get the word out to all fellow knitters. A copy of the letter is on the Yarn Harlot’s site with more information. Like she writes – Freakin’ muggles! I can’t wait for the new Harry Potter book either, but I digress.

Blue Moon states that all can be made right by going to their website and registering and paying for the club again upon receipt of your refund.

It’s a wonder this didn’t throw them into a hissy fit! But Ladies they are, and Ladies they remain as they will not tell the name of the bank.

Otherwise we would be able to cast a spell on them and have them barfing every minute.

Knitting Pattern Review: Sabai Top by PaulaStrickt

Trending now — and for good reason!

Alright fellow knitters, if you’ve been scrolling through Instagram or Pinterest lately, you’ve probably spotted the Sabai Top popping up everywhere. And let me tell you — the hype is totally justified. This lightweight, drapey top by PaulaStrickt has quickly become a must-knit, and it’s easy to see why.

The Sabai Top has that magical mix of style and simplicity. With its elegant A-line shape, soft rolled neckline, and relaxed fit, it flatters every body and suits just about every wardrobe. It’s knit top-down in the round, which means no seams (yes please!), and it flows beautifully thanks to its clever shaping.

It’s ideal for warmer weather and perfect for layering. I’ve seen it styled casually over jeans or thrown over a sundress, and honestly? It looks stunning every single time. That easy, wearable style is what’s made this one take off in the knitting world right now.

PaulaStrickt’s instructions are beautifully laid out, with both English and German versions included. It’s written with clarity and care, and includes helpful photos throughout. I’d say it’s best for confident beginners and up — if you’re comfortable knitting in the round and shaping, you’ll be right at home.

The sizing is generous and inclusive, and it’s so adaptable with different fibres. Linen, cotton, bamboo blends — they all shine in this pattern. I’ve cast on with a blush cotton-linen from my stash, and it’s knitting up like a dream.

This is one of those patterns you just know you’ll make more than once. The fit, the drape, the ease… it’s everything I want in a handmade top. No wonder it’s trending — it’s the kind of timeless knit that never really goes out of style.
