Holiday Happenings

Okay, as of midnight tonight, it's December. DECEMBER! To us, December means knitting at warp-speed, celebrating with all of you as you come in to get supplies to frantically knit, decorating the shop (this year in shades of blue and silver, thanks to our lovely Amy of Good-to-be-Girl fame) and stopping once in a while to take a breath, gulp a cup of tea and reflect on how grateful we are for the joys of the past year. And speaking of Amy - she just dropped off a new supply of her mom's knitting bags in several sizes: snowmen, mittens and more designs to tempt you.

This week, there are a couple of opportunities to get together with all of your knitting pals and make some progress on those last-minute knitted gifts: Friday, Dec 4 is Knit Nite, 6-8pm. Join us for the music of the season by Ray Skjelbred and his dolceola (miniature piano). Ray is a well-known local musician and husband of our infamous VYT fan Elsa - hear Ray's music from 6-7. Treats will be provided by Dinners Ready and we'll get to know more of our neighbors from the Towne Center.

Saturday, Dec 5 is our Holiday Open House and we'll be in celebratory form all day with yummy goodies from Svedala Bakery, hot tea (of course), harp music by our friend Valerie Day from 10am-1pm and a holiday ornament Make & Take from 12-3, with Susan Dirk. If this day doesn't get you in the mood for the up-coming holidays, we don't know what will! So bring your smiles and show off your projects and join us for the fun!
