The Glow Gauge makes swatch measuring easy!

Visit shop
Contact Vendor

Tags

This light-up gauge divides your swatch into a grid, making it easier to count stitches without losing track! It really shines on fine yarns – the illuminated lines break your sea of stitches up into smaller areas, making it much easier for your eyes to focus and keep count when your gauge is 30 or more stitches over 4″.

This tool is the size of a thick credit card, which makes it super convenient to throw into any project bag. You can cycle between 10 different colors and one slow color-changing mode, allowing you to choose the color that contrasts with your yarn best, or just whatever color suits your mood. It has an internal rechargeable battery, and when off and stored, it’ll last for years without needing recharging, and it’s easy to charge it back up with any USB charger and USB-C cable.

The Glow Gauge is a handy addition to any knitter’s toolkit.

New Tool for Easy Gauge Swatching Without Counting!

We know that a lot of knitters and crocheters struggle with getting the correct gauge, or with counting the stitches in a gauge swatch. It’s a frustrating task that takes away from the fun, creative part of making a new project. That’s why we’ve developed a new Gauge Wheel that really makes it simple to get quick and accurate gauge swatch readings… so you can get on to the good stuff!

All you have to do is hold the windows up to your swatch, get the points to match up between the stitches, then turn the tool until the stitches line up. Once you have the right size, you can use the key above the window on the tool to read the gauge, instead of having to count stitches.

And yes indeed, it works — on both knit and crocheted swatches!

New Kits for Summer Crafting and a Restock of Knitting Books from Finland

With summer vacations and outside crafting opportunities on the horizon, a craft kit is the perfect bring along. Especially when the craft kit contains everything you need, it’s so easy to toss in your bag and craft on the road or on an airplane.

There are some great new kits in the shop at Red Hen Books. Just arrived are embroidery and beadwork kits from Kate Wyatt Fine Art. These are unlike any kits out there as they feature contemporary design using traditional stitches and materials. I have a blueberry and a strawberry beadwork embroidery kit for now but plan to add more designs. Also new in are natural dyed silk thread sets and a Boro Sewing Book kit from Cedar Dell Designs.

A very special new kit addition is from Min Amanne Designs. These kits feature traditional Palestinian Tatreez Cross Stitch, include all supplies, and come in eight different designs. I will be donating $10 from every kit to support World Central Kitchen in their efforts to provide meals in Gaza, one the biggest humanitarian threats right now.

Check out all the other craft kits and grab one for the road this summer! Sign up for my weekly newsletter for 10% off your first order!

Enjoy,
Anne

PS. Popular knitting books from Laine and Cozy Publishing have been restocked.

Introducing the Katrinkles Trinket Club, a giftable three month subscription.

This isn’t Clark Griswold’s Jelly-of-the-Month club.

Although honestly I love a good jelly of the month, I thought that a lot of you might appreciate a monthly package subscription designed with the knitter, crocheter and general crafter in mind.

With the Katrinkles Trinket Club, you get three package deliveries, one each month in January, February and March of 2025. Each contains three special Katrinkles tools and accessories — all of which are personalized for the recipient and are available to “club members” only.

Monthly subscription services can be great, but they can also lock you in for the long term. By delivering in three monthly installments, the Katrinkles Trinket Club eases up on the commitment level — it’s enough to give you a variety of new items to look forward to, without becoming too much of a good thing.

This makes a subscription to the Katrinkles Club a perfect gift idea for the crafting people in your life. In fact, it’s like giving three gifts, one arriving each month for them to open and enjoy. Now that’s maximizing your gifting power. They’ll appreciate the thoughtfulness of gifts that bear their name, and that are unique to the subscription.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with sending this great gift service to yourself. You deserve a special monthly treat too. If you’re feeling it, you could even gift to yourself from, say, your cherished pet (we have a customer whose cat often does this, which we think is awesome).

Recurring gifts are a great pick me up, and the novelty factor makes them even more fun. So join the club and become a Trinketeer!

Level Up Your Knitting with Geeky D&D-Inspired Bags & Storage

For those who delight in the intersection of fandom and fiber arts, prepare to be enchanted! As a knitter and crocheter with a passion for tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, I’ve created a unique collection merging these worlds.

Like many makers, I often found myself juggling multiple projects, patterns, needles and notions. But being a fan of a Dungeons and Dragons-like world (Pathfinder, for anyone who is keeping track!) I longed for accessories that allowed me to flaunt both of my nerd-doms at once. Mundane storage wasn’t going to cut it for this crafty adventurer!

Drawing inspiration from iconic fantasy elements, the initial release for this fantasy line contains two prints — one featuring graceful soaring dragons, and another showcasing all things DnD — dice, swords, rune, coins, and more!

Each print is available in the following products:
Project Bags – Spacious interiors to accommodate even the grandest quests
Pattern Pockets – Easily access spellbooks of stitches
Yarn Sleeves – Wrangle errant skeins with these clever creations

Crafted with care using machine washable fabric, these bags and accessories are ready to withstand endless adventures. Tote your treasures in style at game nights, crafting circles, and more!

Oh… and did we mention that the bags all use snap closures? No more zippers here! Perfect for stranded projects or just keeping your yarn contained while you work away during your weekend-long campaign!

Embrace your roles as both a knitting/crocheting guru and a D&D enthusiast. Elevate your crafting glory with my exclusive themed wares! But don’t delay, for great quests await…

Introducing the Glider Swift!

We are so excited to bring our new swifts to the yarn community! We’ve created a modern version of the traditional umbrella design, with features like one-handed opening and closing operation, clamps that work with a variety of tables, and super smooth and quiet operation. And the best part is that you get to choose your own colors, and there are a lot of sparkly glitter options! Here’s what our beta groups says:

“This swift works beautifully. The operation is smooth and, unlike my wood one, squeak free. It is durable, and has stood up to regular, long winding sessions… What’s more, it is visually stunning. We have put ours just in front of a window, and the light that comes through the vibrant struts as it turns makes winding yarn a pleasure.” – La Bien Aimée
​
“I love this swift not only because it’s beautiful, but because of the smooth silent action and the ease of opening and closing it with one hand. I’ve used lots of swifts over the years, and this is the easiest to get a skein onto and silent to use. ” – Kira Dulaney, Kira K Designs

Are you ready for ball winding to be fun and sparkly? Which colors would you choose? Orders are now open with shipping in February/March 2024.
