Classic Elite Yarns Spring Trunk Show!

Classic Elite Yarns Spring 2012 Trunk Show

It’s here, it’s here…
straight from the TNNA trade show!

We are so excited! Knitique is the first yarn store to show the new
  Classic Elite Spring Trunk Show. 

The Trunk Show features garments in Classic Elite’s new spring yarn,
  Sanibel.
We love this yarn and it’s perfect for our California climate.
There are five sweaters in the Trunk Show
for you to “touch and feel”
as well as try on.

Here’s what Classic Elite says about Sanibel:
Sanibel is our fashion yarn: understated, feminine and chic, with a touch of glitz that makes a statement for both daytime and evening wear . The drape is alluring, the hand soft, and the palette sophisticated. Sanibel is perfect for anyone who wants a little excitement in their stash”. 

We agree!
Come see for yourself…
Classic Elite Spring Trunk Show now through Sunday, February 19th.
We just know you’ll love this yarn!

The new Spring 2012 Yarns from Classic Elite
are already in the shop now, too!

Have you Yelped?

I was wondering, if there are any of you who would mind writing a recommendation on our wonderful Yarn Boutique on Facebook, if you look to the right and look down you'll see the place and MOST especially if you could write a review on Yelp, that would be great.

I know we've got a ton of fans who love us, so spread the love, and write a quick review about your Local Favorite Yarn Boutique.  LFYB.

What's in it for you?  Bring in a copy of your Yelp review and we will give you a signature on your FREE Insatiable Knitter's and Crocheters Card.  We'll keep the yarn flowing.

An AMENDMENT:

Hi Everyone.  I appreciate all the reviews that were done on Yelp.  Unfortunately due to their restrictions, I can not compensate anyone even with a signature for writing a review.  In fact they filtered the new reviews out.  If you'd still like to review Knitique and other great places on Yelp, you know where to go.  Thanks for all the support peeps.
