Lagniappe - December 5, 2012

  • It's chilly outside again which is reminding us about Keeping Kids Warm! You still have time to come buy some yarn and make hats and/or mittens for kids in the Waupaca and Weyauwega school systems. Check out this post for the details.
  • It's the Christmas season – and we're celebrating with “Comfort and Joy”! Yarn brings us comfort with warm wool sweaters and scarves. And the sparkly yarn made into scarves with bling certainly gives joy!! Stop in to see what we have!
  • Are you a Lord of the Rings fan? We have a great sock pattern called “The Fellowship” from Unique Sheep along with their gradient sock yarn designed specifically for this pattern. Come check it out – and be ready to take a trip to Middle Earth!
  • Class lists will be going up soon – keep an eye out. Or, better yet, sign up for the newsletter and find out immediately when Patrick puts them online!
  • Need a Christmas gift for a friend? Check out our shawl pins and shawl sticks. The wooden sticks are hand-turned by Patrick and the glass squares by Mary Beisner of Blessings Glasswork. We also have hand-turned knitting needles by Patrick and ceramic yarn bowls by Terry Achten of Waupaca and Richard Milheiser of Eau Claire.
  • Don't forget Stitch Night! On Thursday evenings from 7-9pm, we get together to knit or crochet while enjoying each other's company and chatting. It's a great way to spend an evening!

We hope to see you soon!
