Happy N"ewe" Year, KAl, etc

                               Happy N"ewe" Year - 2013 - to all of  "Ewe"
from this cute alpaca, Linda and myself.
I took this picture a couple of weeks ago at Spring Hill Alpacas farm located in Limehouse 
- just west of Georgetown..
We carry their wonderful alpaca yarn - it is so... soft and we are the only shop with it!

It is hard to believe that 2012 is nearly over. 
The time seems to fly by when we are busy knitting and crocheting and playing with fibre.
Just imagine if you thought about all the wonderful projects you have made this year - there would be miles of  yarn used and hours of creative productive time spent doing your favourite pastimes.

2012 has been a busy year at the shop - always n"ewe" yarns, patterns, gadgets and more.
Each day is a pleasure sharing all our "treasures" with each of "ewe".
Your happy faces are always a pleasure..
Crafters and creative people are so much fun to be around.
We have more kinds of yarn in the shop than ever before - which I am sure "ewe" have noticed!
We also now have Rovings for Thrum Mitts, spinning, drop spindling, needle felting, etc.
We are excited to be the only shop in Canada to carry Hedgehog Fibres from Ireland.
This yarn "flies" out of the shop almost as quickly as we put it on display.
Also, many of "ewe" have taken our interesting workshops.
Speaking of workshops - we are offering a n"ewe" one
 Drop Spindling 
 - learn how to make your own yarn - in February - it is easy and fun - let us know if you are interested.

We are excited that we held our first KAL and made beautiful shawls.
Our  n"ewe" KAL (knit a long) is starting on Monday January 14th in the afternoon.
"Ewe" we have fun learning how to do the Shadow Box Mitts.
Come in to see our mitt samples, register and find out what your homework is!

Wow, I could go on and on about the shop as I love it so much.
It is a lot of work - deciding what yarns, etc to have in the shop, colours, displays, orders, ...
but it is a joy to come to "work" every day.
Your thoughts and comments are very important - so let us know if there are yarns, products, workshops, etc.,  that you would like to see in the shop.

Be sure to keep posted for exciting "things" to be happening in the shop in 2013!
