Rosh Hashana is just round the corner – but you still have time to knit up some quick gifts for your loved ones. Everyone loves a hand made gift, and scarves are perfect for young and old.
Only 3 balls of our new furry yarns, 22 stitches on #8-9 mm needles, all garter stitch, and two hours later, you’ve whipped up a beautiful scarf for anyone on the gift list.
The shelves are packed with new winter yarns, and more are now coming in daily.
ֲ 
Fall Magazines are also here: Interweave Knits, Creative Knitting, Knit & Style, Knit Scene, and Knitters have arrived, and Vogue Knitting should be in any day now. Please pick up your copies early, as quantities are very limited.
A shipment of wooden needles and various notions will be here in early September – please watch for the next newsletter, and let us know if there are any special sizes you would like put aside for you.
Schaefer Yarns are currently dyeing a special order for us – a beautiful range of new colors – in Andrea (silk), Anne (wool), Heather (wool/silk) and Judith (Alpaca). Please let us know if there are any colors you would like put aside. For those that were here during the last Schaefer shipment, and were disapointed that the colors they wanted disappeared before they could reach the shop, this time please check with us for exact arrival date.
Hope you all had a peaceful summer,
O.
