“Sweet November” is the project on all of our needles here at the Cottage. We have fallen in love with this shawl/scarf that was inspired from the movie “Sweet November” (staring Charlize Theron) and are having a blast feverishly knitting them in all colors. You will want to knit this and have several on hand for the approaching cooler weather. It is a perfect wrap for our moderate climate here in the south and a very easy knit. A great project for the beginner to the adventurous and will make a great gift for that “hard to shop for person” on your list.
Come celebrate the second annual Charlotte Yarn Crawl. Wind your way through some of the finest yarn shops in the Southeast. Explore the treasures and uniqueness of each of the Charlotte area yarn shops.
This year’s event will be October 1 through 10, 2010. You will have two weekends with an entire week in the middle to check out our wonderful shops.
