We were speechless when we unpacked our notions order from Bryson today. Its contents revealed something more valuable than gold: SIZE 11 SHORT STRAIGHT NEEDLES!!! Yes! We now have them in stock. 48 pairs of them. So don't put off those novelty scarves any longer.

And we received two favorites today: Martingale Press' Little Box of Scarves and the 365 Knitting Stitches perennial calendar. Both of these are indispensable to our knitting library, and in fact we are knitting some store samples from LBOS! Come see the finished results! They are fast, fun, and fabulous!

And we can't forget our monthly shipment of notions. We order these in quantities of 48 now so we don't run out, and are fully stocked with scissors, markers, crochet hooks and the like. And thanks to our pal Lenni, we now carry the Susan Bates Peg-It Knitting Counter. We admit to being intrigued by this gadget which allows you to keep track of multiple rows, increases and decreases. Hmmm. What will this do to the yellow post-it business?????

And the lovely Missy from Wool in the Woods must have DRIVEN down with the Americana Afghan kits that arrived today! We called her just yesterday to see if she had any in stock! Come see these works of art in pale greens, ivory, and lavendars. They knit on SIZE 17 needles holding three yarns together! Could anything be quicker?
