March BBQ Knit Nite: 3.13.09

How about that? Two Friday the 13ths, two months in a row!

The next BBQ Knit-Nite we’ll be making a crocheted hat & a market bag. Both will come in handy when it’s time for the Farmer’s Market again.
BBQ Knit-Nite is $10 drop in for instruction, food, and fun. Feel free to bring-your-own dish, or non-alchoholic drink, to pass & share.
You can RSVP for BBQ nite on our website calendar.

See you soon!

Longprints are in!

WOOT! The longprints finally made it to the shop & are ready for adoption!
We are also restocked on Ditto & Sensational.

See you soon!

Extended Hours Change

March 1st will bring new evening hours. The yarnhouse will be open Tuesday evenings until 6PM. Many of you requested a late night to shop & Tuesday it is! Wednesday the yarnhouse will close at 5pm. Over the winter months Wednesday turned out to be a knit-nite for staff. We will continue to schedule evening classes until 7 pm Tues - Thurs when needed. Thank you for letting us know which nite worked best for you & for your patience as we all adjust. Happy Knitting!

See you Tuesday evenings in 2009!

Long Prints Delayed

For those of you waiting on the Long Prints Deluxe yarn from Universal, the shipment has been delayed for unknown reasons. We are looking into the delay & will let you know when it does arrive. We appologize for the extremely long wait for this popular yarn.

Customer FO's!

WOOT! Mary finished that felted hat (a-la-Karen) that she worked so hard on & here is her Hubby wearing it! What a sport they were to let me take their photo's together because they are such a cute couple!Here is a pair of finished mittens in Saphira!

Crochet Madness!

The Crochet Guild had their meeting here at the shop, the first of many, that was a huge success! Lots of people showed up & lots of projects were shown & talked about. We even downloaded a few freebie crochet patterns for folks to take home.

Let's meet some of the folks behind the Crochet Guild.

Here, the Founder, Deb works on her project.

Meet the Co-Host Kathy!

Worsted Sock Yarn? You Bet!

We have new Raggi worsted weight, 70% Superwash Wool 30% Nylon, sock yarn in! WOOT! They are $8.40 for 164 yards.

We have some extra special yarn that had been hiding in backstock for a while. It is Fur Real & Bamboo...the last of these special novelty yarns...FOREVER! Get em while they last because these are no longer being made! Fur Real is priced at the ultra low price of $4 a skein for 80 yards - 30% Rayon, 58% Nylon, 12% Acrylic. Fur Real is an eyelash like yarn only super-duper soft. It adds a subtle hint of fuzz & a whole lotta softness.

Bamboo Feather is another eyelash like yarn that is also super-duper soft. It is priced at an amazing $2 a ball!! You can find them both up front near the checkout, while supplies last.

Our Buy One-Get-One-Half-Off Sale is still happening; I hope all of you are able to come in & take advantage of this CRAZY sale while it lasts!

Spring is coming...can you feel it? The days are longer & the frigid chill is giving way to warmer days. Time to get started on those warmer weather items like cotton tank-tops, socks & beach items, like a crocheted sun-hat.

We hope to see you soon!!
