Sheep Shop Showcase

Sheep Shop Yarn Showcase
Every yarn
Every color,
Every pattern

It's a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of an entire collection. And to talk with the creator, too!

This year Fonnie Soderstrom of Sheep Shop Yarns will introduce us to Sheep 3 - a sumptuous wool/silk blend. I've had the privilege of knitting a little sample swatch with it. It's a shimmery pleasure. Beautiful colors and smooth hand. I can't wait to see and feel the finished pieces she's bringing along.

Please Join Us
Sunday November 4th, 1-5pm

Baby Surprise

May 5th through May 13th, we'll be knitting up Elizabeth Zimmerman's classic Baby Surprise Jackets for Cradles to Crayons.

Circles will provide yarn for knitting for charity. Or you can knit along with your own yarn.

We'll also have a workshop on Saturday, May 5th, from 11 until.....
In the workshop you can learn how to keep track of where you are (some say Elizabeth Zimmerman's instructions are sparse), play with color, weave in ends as you go, and add different edge treatments.

All this for $10 (includes the pattern). That's hard to beat. So, please join us as we surprise ourselves with our creativity and surprise some needy children with lovingly hand knit sweaters.

See you there!
