It's was great fun having beginners in the June knitting camp. July knitters have learned how to purl, pick up stitches, and felt a bag. August campers will learn to increase and decrease and knit a hat. Please call the shop if you want to come to camp in August.
Labor Day is right around the corner and KNIT has a special sale beginning Wednesday the first of September and will run through the week-end. Lots of specials throughout the store as well as additional mark-downs.
We have new shipments coming in on a regular basis. Today's deliveries were from Blue Heron and Namaste. Blue Heron has yummy yarns that are quite unusual: metallic rayon, bulky rayon chenille, and beaded wool. Namaste has new hip holster bags and we also received the messenger bags (great for knitting or your laptop) and some small pouches. Who know what tomorrow might bring??
Summer Camp with Wendy was lots of fun and the children (and cute adults) learned alot and had a wonderful time. They knit a hat and felted a bag. Wendy designed the patterns for the hat and bag and both are available with the purchase of yarn. Come and check out these accessories.
We have a new display of small projects hanging in front of the register. Fast and fun items to knit for the holidays. Sarah has designed an ipod carrier and once again the pattern is free with yarn purchase.
Lynn knit an "arrowhead" scarf out of Schaeffer's Susan. This cotton yarn is almost gone, but the pattern would be fantastic in any worsted weight yarn. Come pick up this free pattern with yarn purchase. |
