The weather was great if a little windy … the threatened storms did not materialize and we all had fun at our World Wide Knit in Public Day aka #wwkip.

There were some drawings, some races, some knitting challenges and word games and then some more knitting challenges.

It was good to see you all come and do your thing on the Plaza, and I can’t wait to do it again next year.

If you couldn’t come, watch this space for news of our Annual Cruisette, When you can enjoy the lovely scenery of the Fox River and the company of your fellow knitters and crocheters.

We will be posting details in the next couple of weeks and you will not want to miss it.

New Malabrigo has Just Arrived

You waited and waited and waited, and it’s here … in addition to the Merino Worsted and Lace weights we are also introducing Rasta – the newest addition to the Malabrigo catalog; a wonderful super bulky yarn, all dyed in Aquarella colors – and we have the full color pallette.

We also have Malabrigo’s pattern books. Book 1 – written in collaboration with Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton, Book 2 has patterns by Melissa Leapman and Book 3 has patterns from a collection of your favorite designers.

Brown Sheep and Eco Wool

We have received our first spring shipment (yes – we’re thinking Spring!) of Brown Sheep Lambs Pride Worsted and are expecting new stock of the Bulky in the next few days. We also have a new supply of Cascade Eco Wool on the way.

Liberty Wool

You all just love that Liberty Scarf from Classic Elite, and it is one of those yarns we simply cannot get enough of. I have just ordered more Liberty Wool in each color and it should be here mid-week, so be patient. In the meantime, we have plenty in the variegated prints.

Another year has come to a close, this one went faster than any I can remember. How many projects did you start, how many did you finish, how many will you finish this year? The new year brings all kinds of promise and excitement with it, a clean slate, shiny new needles and sparkling fresh yarn … Oh! the joy!

A few things to get excited about in the next couple of weeks …

The return of the Chicken Wire … so many of you have missed it, and we will be stocking it with all kinds of bargains.

Yarn of the Month is returning … so you can get a deal on one of our most popular yarns, and get to know some great new fibers. Along with Yarn of the Month we will also offer a couple of books at a great price to help you build up your library.

More Madeline Tosh has arrived … and it is just gorgeous. Come on in, don’t miss it this time, you will be astounded.

Malabrigo is coming back … we are getting a new shipment any minute now, so check in and see if it is here. We have ordered several different weights and hope most of them are in stock.

Starting in February we will offer an Every Other Project Kit. Every other month (Feb, Apr, June, Aug, Oct, Dec) we will put together a great little project. Maybe a cowl, gloves, vests, socks, shawls, all kinds of goodies … and once you have finished, you can put your name in a drawing to win the next kit. And if you need a little support, come to our drop ins and we will help you over a hump. And by December you will have at least 6 things finished and ready to wear or to give.

Read more.

We’ll also be open on Labor Day from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.
