Don’t forget to turn your clocks FORWARD this weekend and don’t forget that you get 10% SAVINGS on ALL non-sale yarns in the shop beginning Saturday, March 13th through Saturday, March 20th. This savings can really add up when you’re making sweaters, afghans and other large projects.

The explosion of color in our new spring and summer yarns makes all of us want to party. Colors of daffodils, tulips, pansies and fresh green grass. That’s what you’ll find when you walk into the shop.
Araucania’s Ruca and Ruca Multi made from 100% sugar cane feels lusciously soft and cool to the touch. Cascade’s new Ultra Pima – 100% Pima Cotton – 220 yards and at an unbelievable cost! Katia’s Tobago with a long run print in fun bright summer colors. Numerous pattern books have arrived to make selecting your next project with these and the rest of our yarns so easy.
This tapered scarf is knit in a yarn that falls gracefully over the shoulder. A beautiful accessory for year-round outfits! Click here for class dates.
Our popular French Market Bag is now in fair isle! Now you will have your one-of-a-kind market bag just by adding beautiful color (not shown in photo). Class begins Saturday, March 13th at 1:30pm.
Okay, the sweater looked great in the pattern, but not so great on you after you made it, right? This workshop teaches you how to accurately measure yourself so that all dimensions fit you properly.
You will learn how to ease in your correct measurements and change the smallest details that will make all the difference in the way your garment (sweater, vest, skirt) fits your body.
You will have the opportunity to make a form of your body to take with you for fitting purposes.
This is probably one workshop everyone who knits and crochets should take!
Why continue wasting your time and money on garments that come out either too small or too large?! Once and for all, make your knits fit!
This is one of the options at our Spring Workshop at Pine Lake Country Club in April. Please join us there.
Using the Sunset Ruana (pictured) as a guideline, we’ve created a wrap which can be made up much quicker. Tunisian entrelac is a fascinating technique and gorgeously done in our multi-colored yarns.
Whether you crochet or not, this workshop is for you! You will be using a crochet hook, but the stitch appears woven. Lovely!
This project is part of our Spring Workshop lineup at Pine Lake Country Club in April.
Those of us who’ve knit with beads know that you “usually” have to thread the beads before you begin knitting. No more! Learn how to add beads as you go with this darling knitted bracelet made with metallic yarn. You’ll want to make more for gifts. A fast fun project that’s beautifully finished.
Come to our Spring Workshop at Pine Lake Country Club to get started.
This lovely bag is knitted in a unique “yarn” which we have never carried before and is new for Spring. Grace is known for her creativeness when it comes to bags and purses and she’s been having tons of fun “playing” with this yarn.
The yarn very much resembles the straw bags we’ve all purchased and love. This photo is not the “exact” purse we’ll be knitting but will give you an idea of one of the patterns possible for this particular yarn. Grace is in the process of finaliziing ours and will provide “the real thing” soon. We all need surprises, right?
This is one of the projects featured in our Spring Workshop at Pine Lake Country Club in April.
We’re excited to announce our next all-day workshop on Saturday, April 17, 2010, Pine Lake Country Club in Mint Hill from 8:30am until 5:00pm. We’ve planned our classes around techniques and projects to stir your creative juices. We promise it will be both educational and fun.
Imagine taking 3 classes of your choice, including all materials, a continental breakfast AND lunch! We’ve thought of everything, although it may be necessary to bring a set of needles with you for one of the classes.
Bring a friend with you and make this a fun day of learning and knitting. You deserve it!
Please call us or come by to reserve your spot and designate your class preferences. $125 for all materials, instruction and FOOD. What a deal.
