One skein=awesome
Karabella Margrite Bulky (ravelry link)! Courtney’s Drop-stitch Cowl pattern is available free in the shop. It only takes one skein of this gorgeous cashmere-merino wool blend to make this cowl. 15% off all month!
Vibrant!
P.S. you’re coming, right? Right?
March 13th from 4-7 PM Ms. Andrea, yarn rep and superhero, will be here with bags and bags of beautiful Schaefer Anne, Helene, Miss Priss, Andrea, and more! Come by and dig in!
You’ll get to meet Andrea, yarn rep to fantastic companies like the Fibre Co, Mountain Meadow, The Alpaca Yarn Company, Abstract Fibers, and other small, independent companies. And we’ll all get to have a great time shopping in her cash-and-carry supply. This is your chance to see the whole Schaefer line, including stuff we don’t normally stock in the shop, and unique one-offs. Don’t miss this one!
Like this, but MORE.
We will be open normal hours today! Haven’t you been holed up in your house long enough? Stop by for tea time at 3, and bring your project!
P.S. Learn Socks! And not just regular socks, learn toe-up socks using the Magic Loop technique (no double points for you!) You know you want to take a class from this guy:
Don is an Evil Sock Genius
We’ll be closed today due to snow. Stay safe. If you’ve tried to call us, I am sorry to report that the snow has knocked out our phones. Hopefully we’ll be fully operational tomorrow!
P.S. Be the first to know updates like these...be our facebook fan!
Be careful out there! We’re closing at 2 PM today due to the snow.
It’s the dead of winter. People, it is 15 degrees outside. I’m not taking this lying down. I’m having a yarn sale!
Saturday-Monday (January 30-1) you’ll get big cozy discounts. Take 15%-40% off a bunch of yarns, including new stuff from the Fibre Co, Cascade, Aslan Trends, and Schaefer Yarns. All needles (including the new Hiya Hiyas!), notions, books, and patterns will be 20% off.
You’ll also feel warm and fuzzy when we get together to help with the relief effort in Haiti. We’ll be raffling off a WonderKnit tote bag stuffed with goodies (it’s a surprise, but I can promise local alpaca yarn!), and the proceeds will go to Doctors Without Borders. Plus, everyone who donates will get a copy of my new Warm and Fuzzy Mittens pattern (a wonderful, easy one skein project). So no matter what, you win.
Don’t let January beat you. Get a discount, help out Haiti, make some mittens!
Luv,
Libby
The pictures speak for themselves!
Clintonville Sock Yarn!
Karida just finished dyeing up the new Clintonville sock yarn! I tried to get the true color to show up, but it was elusive. It’s a gorgeous, bright, jewel toned green.
Remember summer? Clintonville is so green.
This is a new thing! We’ll have a featured yarn every month. The yarn will be 15% off all month AND we’ll have a free pattern for it too. Think of it as yarn and customer appreciation. We want to promote good stuff AND make it easier for you guys to try it out!
And the Featured Yarn for January is……
The colors!
Karabella Aurora 8! This 100% superfine merino yarn is the softest wool you’ll find. Not only is it beautiful, but I can tell you that it wears like a champion. It’s great for hats, scarves, and mittens, but I personally love it as a sweater yarn. You just spent months knitting gifts for others…how ’bout somethin’ nice for you?! You know…somethin’ like this?
Karen says this is the warmest ever.
…Or maybe this?
We've got this pattern in the shop!
Stay tuned for more Aurora 8 projects and a free pattern!
Luv,
Libby
