Coming soon

Just wanted to let everyone know a few things that I’ll be adding to the blog soon. I’d like to add a section with some of the shop’s free patterns. I’m in the process of compiling all of them right now. It may take awhile and they won’t all be added at once. Also, I’ll be posting our classes here so keep an eye out for that. Ali of Quantum Tea has volunteered to be our “roving” reporter at Maryland Sheep and Wool and is going to tempt us with all the spinning goodness she found when she gets back!

Edited to add: Ali’s flight was cancelled and she didn’t make it, but somehow her luggage did!  Sometimes fate isn’t kind.

We’re on Ravelry

Ravelry is such a wonderful resource for all us knitters. We started our own group on Ravelry in November, 2007. If you haven’t joined, please do (don’t forget to join our group too)! There are so many things you can do on Ravelry, we could go on and on…… Once you’ve joined, you’ll have to learn to knit at the computer. Sorry, we don’t give a class on that!

Norah Gaughan Trunk Show

We are really excited to be hosting the Norah Gaughan Volume 2 trunk shows this spring. They will be held in 2 parts, each having different items. The first show will be on display at the shop from May 1st to May 13th. The second show will be on display from June 12th to June 24th. Come in to see these wonderful designs in person. You will even be able to try on the sample garments!

To go along with the trunk show, we will be doing a KAL from Norah’s Vol. 2. We’ll be doing the Veil shawl on the front cover out of Seduce by Berroco. It is a work of art! Susan has started it and is loving it!

Here’s looking forward to seeing you!!
