Announcements/New Patterns

Tesla Slept Here Hat and Cowl - a set meant to use just two skeins of sock yarn. Designed in Elemental Fiberworks Electron Sock (80/20 wool/nylon).

For the entire month of July, all Kino Knits Sock patterns were 50% off, with all proceeds going to Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES). I also committed to personally donate $10 to RAICES for every pair of Kino Knits socks completed in July. Grand total was $150! Click here to see how it broke down.
