Wow, it is September already!

Happy September to all of you. As I am doing this post - it is very hot and muggy - not at all like September usually is. Most of us do love the summer and do not want it to end. From a knitting shop owners' point of view - bring on the cool weather - knitting weather! Do not blame me if it gets cooler over the weekend, as a change in weather is forecast.

I hope that you have found time to read our newsletter that we sent you recently. It is good reading and very inspiring - new yarns, lots of workshops, etc.

Well, in the last post I promised to send you a picture of a new yarn that had just arrived. I also kind of teased you about its name. Think cool - no cold weather - it is call Snowdrops by Sirdar.


You can see the wonderful colours in this softly textured chunky yarnn. It knits up quickly on a 6 mm needle but does not feel "chunky"! Be sure to come in and see our shop sample - a cute little girls' mauve caridigan. I forgot to take a picture - oh well. This yarn will not make you "snowy" as you knit - it will make you feel nice and cozy.

The Labour Day long weekend is almost here - have a fun, safe weekend and hopefully find time to relax and pick up your knitting needlesand crochet hooks.
