Walter the UPS Guy brought us myriad goodies today. The re-issued Rowan Book "It's a Tape Thing" is now here, filled with fabulous patterns for their Cotton Tape and Linen Print yarns; Skacel sent us a bright red color of their popular Hobby Kids yarn, perfect for (you guessed it) kids' stuff, and finally Lantern Moon came through with two totes: Palm Leaf in black, burgundy, and cinnamon colors and a new Twisted Seagrass tote lined in black or green silk. Don't you just love the name?

Finally, a word about queries we have received concerning possible summer hours. We don't shorten our hours EVER. Why? Because we knit all year, why shouldn't you? We don't want to be any less available or convenient just because the weather is growing warmer. Don't believe you can knit all year? Come see our gorgeous cottons, silks, rayons and blends. You will be amazed. The summer is the perfect time to progress as a knitter. Stuck on scarves? Make a shell. No sleeves, minimum shaping. We'll teach you how!
