NEEDLES, NOTIONS, AND NOVEL IDEAS

Walter, our new (and rather shy) UPS guy wheeled in a boatload of things for us today. First, we were ecstatic to receive four boxes of books from Unicorn Press. We had more fun with Amelya, the Unicorn rep at TNNA, who steered us to the new fabulous selections including: 1000 Sweaters, 50 Baby Bootes, Baby Knits for Beginners, Debbie Bliss Baby Knits, Dogs in Knits, Knitting for Baby, Urban Knitter, Vintage Knits, and Weekend Knitting.

We also found a new pattern designer at TNNA-Chris Bylsma. Come see her terrific scarf, shawl, throw and sweater patterns made from funky and fabulous yarns!

Next, we are now fully stocked with Crystal Palace and Skacel needles. Due to customer requests, we are selling down our circular Clover needles and replacing them with Skacel Bamboo Natura. As we sell out a size, we will order the new needles. Please let us know what you think!

Bryson came through with the necessary notions and knitting gear that make our lives so much easier. We don't know WHAT you are doing with all the stitch holders you buy (we are sort of afraid to ask!) but they disappear with alarming speed and so we have restocked!

We are always on the prowl for knitting bags and have restocked the most popular Ellen Original-the Walking Tote. This is the PERFECT beach/vacation knitting bag because it is both a stand and a detachable tote. Stand it on the floor when you are home, and take it with you to the pool or beach! We bought all her new tapestry designs.

Finally, we have in a beautiful new pink color of the Blue Sky Alpaca yarn. This lovely sport weight yarn makes beautiful scarves, shawls and sweaters; and we have it on authority that pink continues to be HUGE this fall.
