If you haven't been in the shop since Thanksgiving, you'll be in for a real treat the next time you stop in. Our friend Amy Allen (of Good-to-be-Girl cute stitch marker fame) has graced us with her creativity by coming up with our red and white holiday decorating theme this year! Not only does it make the shop feel festive, but the decor also features some fabulous gift items. Yes, Virginia, we are a one-stop holiday gift shopping store! We've got red and white teapots in two sizes, peppermint candy tape measures, decadent chocolate mint truffle mix, some of the cutest holiday stitch markers you've ever seen, not to mention special teas. You might want to brew a cup for yourself - just the thing to soothe the savage holiday beast. Even better, sit and knit a while and let us brew it for you.
Oh, and yarn. We have a little bit of yarn. We have some new colors of Cascade Superwash Handpaints in grown-up colors. And we have Sin (Sin City, that is - from Plymouth Yarns). You'll want to knit this one only for your most favorite person, the one you really want to impress. And Deb has already knit a pair of fingerless mitts out of the new Misti alpaca-silk blend.
Oh my - and fiber. Yes, some new fiber in luscious jewel tones that you can spin or felt into your own handmade creations. And I do believe Emma has been at it again in the fiber dyeing studio just in time for our Holiday Open House, coming up this Saturday, all day, replete with goodies, special vendors and live music.
So do stop in. Knit Nite is this Friday from 6-9pm - frantic knitting to be enjoyed by all, along with treats and cookie cutter needlefelting. Besides, we are just dying to show you our giant felted snowman, made by our friend Suzanne Beckley with make up (okay, a face) by Deb and accessories by Joni.
See you this weekend!
