Health Fair and Stitch-n-Pitch Pattern

Three  things to talk about today.

First, we still have spots available for mammograms during the Health Fair on August 22 and 23. We can't stress enough the importance of having a mammogram! We have so many friends and family members who have been saved by early detection. If you have never had a mammogram - fear not! We are here to hold your hand both literally and figuratively. 

My second topic is the lovely Ruth Sorensen Noro kits we have made up for Stitch-n-Pitch! Ruth has come up with 6 new and exclusive patterns for us using the new Noro Kureyon Sock yarn - 3 different bags and wrist warmers. For those of you who are not familiar with Ruth, she designed many of the VERY popular patterns using Kauni and Evilla yarns. 

And speaking of Kauni - our very own Joni has designed something special for Stich-n-Pitch using this great yarn. Be sure to stop by and get your copy!

Kauni Fever


It has arrived! The much anticipated, fabulously colorful, all-the-way-from-Estonia Kauni yarn has made it's journey to our shop. (Kauni translates to "beautiful" and is pronounced "cow-nee".) Ellen is busy putting up the yarn into packages to make Ruth's Kauni Cardigan pattern (which we will include with your purchase). We have enough for 26 sweaters! There are 12 kits in the rainbow colorway as well as some in the magenta/purples, brown/gold/blue, and black/grey combos. These kits are going to go fast so get yourself in here to pick out your favorite!
