Carry your creativity with Erin Lane Bags! Whether you show your fiber fandom with the woolly wonder

Sheepleverse, or dive into history with the Curiosities collection, our project bags, totes, and hook and needle

organizers are at the ready to keep your hobby happy.

For a limited time only, bring home the bacon with code KNITMORE and get fifteen percent off in-stock yarns and fibers at oinkpigments dot com. Shop soon, because these pigs will FLY!

The first time I saw a chain row counter, I thought "Hmm, that's nice, but I'll just mark my pattern".

But I inevitably forgot and spent more time re-counting my knitting than actually knitting!

Friend, do yourself a favor and put a chain row counter on that project (you can thank me later).

You'll always know exactly where you are and get to knit more - and stress less!

No clicking, tallying, or waking your phone up every row.

Just knit!
