Fabulous Fall Classes Starting Soon!
If you look to the right, you'll see another wonderful class packed month. We've got from beginning classes, fixing mistakes, cables, to shawls, scarves and even 2 different sweaters.
We will be repeating the very popular sold out twice Stained Glass Shawl, as well as I can't believe it another couple of Beaded Bracelet Classes. We have sold hundreds of the kits and right now it seems to be the most popular Christmas Project. You can't beat, low price, quick knit, and currently extremely fashionable. So peruse the classes, come on in see the yarn, the samples and ask us any questions you might have.
All of us at Knitique, really take a lot of time to decide what to teach, find the perfect yarn, and knit the samples for you. It is very important to us that you, our fellow knitters and crocheters have classes that you want to take. If you think of a class that you'd like us to teach, please feel free to email us at knitique@hotmail.com Your feedback is very important to us.
Any questions, please feel free to call us at 916.714.7719

New Hat Kits In
We received some really cute hat kits from Knit One Crochet Too yesterday. And don't worry we ordered plenty, so even after late night all the colors are still available.
These are fabulous quick knits for yourself or the teenager in your life. Each kit has one skein of Wrapunzel and one skein of Tartlette and comes in a variety of colors. Including all the newest colors.
The directions for this hat can be found in knitting and crochet versions which makes this a very universal project. Come in and ask us about this great quick and easy project. Definitely an easy one or two nighter.
If you don't live locally give us a call and we can send one to your house, (916) 714- 7719.
