Christmas Stockings

Yup, it’s that time – time to be making those Christmas stockings for one and all.  Our quick to knit, Traditional Christmas Stocking is perfect! Easy to make, knit in the round and totally customizable for those who wish.  If you have never made a sock before and always wanted to try this is a fun way to learn.  If you are an old-hand at socks and just want some help translating your skills into a larger size we can do that too.

Cost: $30 (pattern and materials not included)

When: Saturday October 9 and 16  – 1-3pm

On Sunday (April 25th) we will be Stitchin’ at the Studio from 1-4pm.  Bring any needlework project and join us for a fun afternoon of fibery goodness.  There is no charge for this gathering.

While you are here, take a look around at the new arrivals in the showroom.  Just unpacked today – Needle Gauges from Debra’s Garden including the Dark Purple “Animal Welfare Awareness” fundraisers are back in stock. We managed to wrangle another shipment of the Imperial Blue Sterling Silk and Silver that we had at Fiber Fest.  Not the standard Imperial Blue, this one is more purple than blue and STUNNING! (due to the limited nature of this colorway it is not listed on our website.  Email us if you wish to purchase and we can let you know what we have in stock) We have also restocked the Sweet Little Things pins that were so popular at FiberFest and thanks to the UPS man, our needle inventory is back where it should be and Chiaogoo Swifts are back too.

Wish you could shop but can’t stay for class? No problem! Come on by the studio and browse, we will be glad to see you. Alissa will most likely be there all afternoon on Thursday, so if the door is locked – knock! Or, call first and let us know you are on the way and we will be sure to meet you. (Not that we plan to leave, but a soul needs to eat from time to time)

Hope to see you soon!
