Needles are in & it's easy to be green!

I know a lot of ya’ll have been waiting for our needles to come back in. Our needles are now fully restocked and ready to be adopted. We will try our darnedest to keep up with demand now that we have had a chance to settle into the new digs.

We now have a bag discount! Bring in your own bag, mention it when you check out (cause sometimes we forget to ask), & receive a $.10 bag discount for helping to make our home a greener & cleaner place by reducing & reusing. WOOT!!

Have a great holiday!

New Location

Hi Everyone. We are thrilled to be in our new location at 1216 Williamson Street, right across from the Firehouse & the Williamson Street Grocery Coop! Please remember, there is plenty of parking on Wilson Street behind the shop and a straight shot up the driveway puts you right at the front door.

In the time since the old shop closed on Oct 10, i have had not problem finding a spot near the shop, about as close as our old back parking lot used to be. There are also a number of spots in front of Jolly Bob's, right next door; and across the street. Two hour parking is pretty good for shopping & even knitting!

Also, thank you to all of you who have already been in and all the new folks & groups!

FABULOUS NEW YARN>>>

We have a new yarn called Dream Big (2st/inch) that is 130 yds of luscious washable 100% merino, with a free pattern for a vest on the band in 10 colors. Lots of new colors in Yin & Yang have arrived with old hat made new in it! Five new colors in Arnhildt's sock yarns! We will have a shipment of new books hot off the presses next week, in time for Christmas! Also coming: Chunky Alpaca in 8 luscious colors; y' all emptied my bins so i ordered some more...

There are some new surprises coming to; with just a little to start - to see how we like them... there will be left over skeins after the demos, so first come first serve until the new line arrives.

We Are FINALLY Open!

We are open again for Black Friday at our new location at 1216 Willy Street! We are right across the street from the Willy St #3 Fire Dept & the Willy St Coop. Please be aware that the space in front of the shop is a loading zone. We don't want you to get a ticket. There is limited parking in the back of the shop, & street parking all around the block. There is two-hour, non-metered, parking on the street behind the shop.

Uh-oh

Yes, we are delayed a week! Please watch the window now as you see the signage & interior emerge! As soon as we can; the doors will fly open. Looks like Nov 19-27th, can't miss Black Friday! It is one of the most fun days of the year; we usually have a demonstration of some kind where folks can have fun.

Also, looks like we still have some demand for knittin' in the kitchen; so, we are looking into the possibility of booking knitting groups, workshops & classes at ye old Femrite farmhouse... however; there will be no product there... will keep you posted. We have spoken to the Willy Street Coop & their community room can be available for classes! We can do both. We have choices! Can't wait for the fun to start; I have missed you all!

1216 Willy Street

Hello folks, the move: it is happening! The flooring & walls are ready for product to arrive. Watch the window for our November display. We plan to open on Tuesday, Nov 17th. Watch this space for updates. We have received so many wonderful enthusiastic messages regarding our move. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Parking: While there is no parking directly in front of the store (loading zone); there is plenty of off-street parking not far away. Also, check out Wilson Street. It is parallel to Willy Street & directly behind us. There is an apartment complex with a wonderful parking lot you can zip right up, very close. Also, the two handicapped parking spaces in this building's lot are for our patrons who need them. No one in the complex requires them.

I have had no problems finding a spot close to the store while we have been moving; and, being able to pop into the Willy Street Coop has been wonderful. We will be holding some classes in their Community Room.

It's Moving Time...

I write to you on this, our last official day of operation at 215 Femrite Drive. We will be open one more time on Friday Oct 16 for KnitCh Nite from 3-6:30 pm for one last knit & chain session with Karen & Kathy. All are welcome. Bring a dish to pass and a smile. Its all free.

Next time Friday Nite KnitCh will be happening in our new location: 1216 Williamson Street, Madison WI 53703. As usual, it will be the third Friday of the month (Nov 20th), after hours, from 4-6:30 pm. We always have a free knit or crochet pattern for you and some new stitches! You can bring a project of your own if you desire.

Also, signs will appear in the new windows as we progress. We hope to open between November 1 & the 15th, dependent on many factors (interiors, moving, new shipments, etc).

We will have a Grand Re-Opening for sure and hope all of you will stop in.

Also, we are discontinuing our Newsletter per se, because the Blog is such a popular place to check out what is happening & to catch up with current events past. We will be posting some long overdue photos & info on the blog here, so stay tuned. Instead of a newsletter, we will send reminders to check the blogspot, so let us know if you would like to be on the reminder list.

A heartfelt thank you to all who have generously supported our adventures at 215 Femrite Drive over the last four years; and, we hope you will all travel with us into our new chapter as:
Off The Beaten Path Yarnery
1216 Williamson Street

Happy Knitting,
See you soon!
Karen
