Christmas in July


Sure it's hot and humid now, but  just wait!  Get in the spirit with a 3-session (starts July 17th) Christmas stocking plus 2 hour workshops on ornaments, animals, needlefelted embellishments, table "stuff" (napkin rings, runners, wine bottle cozies), "Round and Round" techniques for hats, fingerless mitts, felted baskets...you get the idea.  They'll go on through the holidays, so let us know if there's something you want to learn.

We're 2....and holding!

Happy Birthday to us!!  Who knew waaaaay back there in June 2008 what was in store for The Little Shop That Could....and Did!
  Come by Saturday after you've done your Knitting in Public.....birthday cake at 2p and a 20% sale on all regularly priced yarn!

Merry Christmas.....almost

Hard to say which is better looking....the present or the wrapper.  Sorry, Kristine's got the last of this particular model but you can certainly help yourself (or any number of loved ones) to that gorgeous sweater.  Santa can pick from 13 colors of Kathmandu's wool/silk/cashmere blend and call you NICE!!!
