We are so thrilled for our very own Eloise to be one of the ELEVEN finalists for the 5 year anniversary RAVELRY project bag competition. 73,000 crafters voted on the first round of designs on the Ravelry website (I think there were over 200 entries) and our own very talented Eloise was picked as one of the top finalists! As many of you know, we choose Eloise to design the JP Knit & Stitch one year anniversary tote back in March (hmmm, did those Ravelry-ers take a page from our playbook???…see below for a photo of the beautiful + whimsical JPK&S tote bag). If you love her design as much as we do, please go to the Ravelry site and VOTE for her design by Monday, May 21st, at midnight. We couldn’t be more proud of her!
p.s. We have a very few left of Eloise’s limited edition JPK&S anniversary tote bags left, so come in and get one for yourself before they all sell out….
p.p.s. Be sure to spend a little time on the Eloise Draws website. Her illustrations are absolutely charming and will make you smile.

Thank you, thank you to all you creative knitters! You have crafted over 46 dolls for Zambian children and each of you have added personal touches: long hair, braided hair, striped shirts, checked shirts, sparkling skirts, earrings – one Red Sox fan even added a ‘B’ to the doll’s hat to send a little Boston sporting love to Africa!
If you’re still creating, we hope you’ll finish before June 1, in time to send your doll off in a suitcase with the others to Zambia! Please contact us and let us know if you’re still working on a doll. Thanks again!

We had an absolutely fabulous time at Spontaneous Celebrations’ Wake Up the Earth festival. This is one of the great events on the JP calendar and we were so honored to be a part of it for the second time. This year we decorated a tree in the park with some knitted, sewn, embroidered, and quilted finery. We set up a table and picnic blanket underneath our special tree and made pompoms with friends old and new all day long. Thanks to everyone who contributed either by knitting up a swatch for the tree or donating yarn for the craft: Dulce, Molly, Laura, Jenny, Annie, Peri, Louisa, Beth, Jen, Amber, and Joellen (if we’ve forgotten anyone…thank you!!!!).
A few picture from the event are below, but you can see more in the Wake Up the Earth album on the JPK&S Facebook page.
xoxo JPK&S
