Bunny season!!!


It's bunny season, and we at JP Knit & Stitch have knit some adorable bunnies (and a fuzzy chick) to inspire some spring quick knits. You still have time for these easy projects! Click on their names for the links to the free patterns.


Nugget Bunny is a super quick knit as he's only 2 1/2 inches tall not including his ears. Including his mini pompom tail, you could knit him in an evening. Knit a bunch of Nuggets for a basket, or mix and match with a Chubby Chirp (see below).



Our fuzzy chick (or Chubby Chirp) was inspired by our fun and crazy Fizz yarn (available in tons of colors) knit with a worsted weight yarn. He turned out so soft and cuddly! Both free patterns are available from Rebecca Danger's super fun knitting blog.



Rabbit is your typical adorable soft white bunny, knit in a wonderful superwash wool/organic cotton blend by Spud & Chloe. Can't you just picture her perched in a basket or bouncing around your living room floor (the body is stuffed with a tennis ball...)?



Floppy is a wonderfully soft and squishable bunny perfect to hug and tug along. Lots of little kids who come in the store want to leave with Floppy. He's knit in Baby Alpaca Chunky with felt eyes and mouth. Come in the store to check out all the colors of yarn and felt you could combine to create him. Floppy is from the Bo Peep pattern from KnitWit by Katie Boyette, a great new book of crazy knitted creatures.

Opening Soon!


461 Center Street is the new home of JP Knit & Stitch! We are thrilled and excited and more than a little overwhelmed with all that has to be done to turn our longtime dream into a reality. Thanks to everyone in the JP community for their support.



This is what our store looked like when we signed the lease. We have a lot of work to do!



This is what it looks like now. Better, but still plenty of work to do. We will be showing sneak peeks of our progress on the store in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
