This year, we are rolling with a teen theme--playful, fun, and not taking ourselves too seriously! Here's what we have planned:
a trunk show
new yarn from one of our favorite indie dyers (two bases)
goodie bags while supplies last
Girl Scout cookies
pending -- the timing on this one is tricky, but there's one more thing we are trying to get in place before the 11th
chances to enter in-store raffle
We love celebrating with you--join us any time during the day, including our regular Social Stitching time from 2 - 4p. Make a day of it and bring a fiber friend with you!

…new in the shop
We've got a lot of things in the works--yarn on order, fun April events coming right up--but this week, it's the little things making us smile.
Buttons: we got some really fun new buttons. We hear all the time that it's hard finding buttons out there in the world--gone are the days when JoAnn Fabrics had cards and cards of them. We focus on buttons for hand knit and crocheted garments--mostly between 1/2" and 1". Dreaming up a cardigan? We might have your perfect buttons!
Stickers: In addition to the Studious Owl Press stickers we featured last week we got an order from Mimic Gaming Co. They've added a bunch of designs since the last time we had them!
Rolling along on the Arcuate Vest in Blue Sky Fibers Organic Cotton Sport. The density of the cables is staggered; we'll start to see that effect soon.
Did not make progress on the Bliss-Bloss Shawl, between driving myself to and from work at the end of the week, and working on Sunday... I want to get back to that one--the Caprino is so lovely.
Spinning: I finished a braid of Greenwood Fiberworks BFL. This is about 177 yards, 89g. (I sacrificed about 11g to an ill-fated experiment.)
