Free Valentine's Classes!

We have two exciting and FREE Valentine's themed classes this month.  Join us for one or both.  Just make sure to give us a call ASAP and sign up.  Our FREE classes fill up fast!

  

This quick to knit project is perfect to keep you hot drink warm, or a great gift for your Valentine. Small projects like this are great to knit and stash away for birthday gifts, and Christmas presents. Just think, if you knit a few things throughout the year that make great gifts, you'll save yourself a lot of last minute stress when the holiday comes around. Give us a call or sign up for this fun and FREE class. Love Mug Cozy Class is this Saturday, February 1st from 12-2pm.

 

Cowls are still one of the most stylish and versatile accessories around, and this quick knit is a great accessory to wear on Valentine's Day or to give as a gift. Our sample is knit in the color of the season and only took a few hours to knit, so you'll have plenty of time to knit one up before the 14th! Join us for the FREE Hearts Cowl class on Tuesday, February 4th from 12-2pm or 6-8pm.

It's not too late!

The 2014 Winter Olympics start Friday, February 7th. If you haven’t joined us yet in knitting the 2014 Winter Games Sweater, it’s not too late. We have a lot of beautiful yarns in stock that would work perfectly for this gorgeous sweater. Imagine how beautiful this sweater would be out of Tara Tweed, self striping Tangier, or Liberty Wool. Stop by the boutique to pick out your yarn and get a copy of the pattern so you can start swatching, and preparing to cast on during opening ceremonies.Photo Credit: Tin Can Knits on Ravelry

Winter Olympics 2014!

The Winter Olympics begin February 7th.

 

 Please join us for a fun filled 16 days with free classes and amazing prizes from all the generous companies who've donated.

We've picked a sweater to knit while watching the games and cheering on our USA athletes and teams. We chose a beautiful v-necked cardigan knit in stockinette and garter stitch for a fun and fast knit....

The scrumptious yarn for this year's sweater will be hand dyed especially for you by one of our favorite yarn USA companies, Dream in Color. Choose from Classy, a beautiful 100% super wash wool yarn, or Classy with Cashmere, a super wash wool/cashmere blend. Stop by to see the available color choices in person and order yours.

 Yarn orders must be placed by January 23rd to receive in time for Opening Ceremonies, but don't delay, order your yarn now so you have plenty of time to swatch, wash and prepare!
