Thanks to all who toured

Well, the 5th Anniversary LYS Tour is over and we're just waiting to hear who won the Grand Prize. As soon as we know, we'll post it here. It was so gratifying to see you all in the shop this weekend - thanks for stopping by! And now, on to our Pot Holder Swap, great summer classes (schedule should be published this week) and lots of iced tea drinking and warm weather knitting. See you soon!

LYS Tour: Day 1

We had such a fantastic first Tour day today - lots of people buying yarn, eating cupcakes, drinking tea and hanging out with us! Love it! We're really proud of our patterns, both knit and crochet and hope you're loving them too. Here are photos to tempt you! And we hope to visit with many more of you this weekend.

LYS Tour on TV!

Are you planning on starting the Puget Sound LYS tour Destination:Yarn first thing on Thursday morning? How about joining us to kick off the tour at the KING 5 studios on Dexter Avenue for a taping of Margaret Larson's new show - New Day. Thursday's show will showcase a yarn fashion show and information on the tour. We want to fill the audience with people knitting while wearing their favorite handknit items.

We need YOU at the KING 5 studios on Dexter Avenue at 9:15am. We will have you on the tour no later than 11:30am. (The actual show airs 11a-noon this Thursday).

If you can join us, please email neuroticknitter@gmail.com. Any questions, please call Kristin at 206.718.1406.

One more day till LYS Tour 2010!

It's tomorrow, it's tomorrow! Have you picked up your passport? Wangled money out of the significant other (or better yet, shanghied him/her to drive you!)? Decided where to have lunch? and dinner...and ice cream...and coffee...and chocolate...and...and... Did you write down all the future patterns you want to buy yarn for? Oh, and are you getting lots of rest, catching up on the laundry and dishes and other boring chores so you won't feel guilty for leaving them behind?

If you have taken all of these steps, YOU are ready for the 2010 LYS Tour! Get the vehicle gassed up, grab a friend and wait with bated breath for Thursday, May 20 to arrive. It's almost here! (And we're looking forward to seeing you all at VYT!)
