The summer is full speed ahead now. The weather is warm and sunny, except for this little blip were getting this week. I am hoping you all have a wonderful and safe 4th of July. If you are headed up to Mackinaw for your holiday we are open as usual, except closed on the 4th. Here are some updates listed for the month of July for you to take advantage of. Next newsy notes will be out on August 1st.
COTTON SALE: Berroco cotton "Touche' " will be on sale all month. Each week will be discounted more. I
have around 8 different colors in. July 1 - 11 10% OFF, July 12 - 18 20% OFF, July 19 -
25 30% OFF, and July 26 - 31 40% OFF. Snooze you loose so get a quick jump on it!
CONFETTI STRIPES: This is a new pattern shown below. It was just written and finished by Meta. Knit Col
comes in many colorways, so if you don't like the purple you can knit it in something
else. The yarn does the work for you in striping. Meta took careful steps in designing
this sweater so it has room for growth. Come check out store display or order on line.
FIBER FESTIVAL: Yes, again the fiber festival will be at Castle Farms in Charlevoix this Month! It is held on
July 25th and 26th. We will be closed those days as we will be there also as a vendor.
Hope you can attend. It is a fabulous fiber show with so much more going on!
25% OFF ON ALL KNITTING TOTES, EXCEPT 15% OFF ON NAMASTE TOTES: If you need a new bag or
another bag for all your knitting gear, stop in and see our selection. We have some cloth
bags, totes from Lantern Moon, and then again our famous Namaste's!
NONI DESIGNS WORKSHOP: Nora Bellow's whom created Noni will be doing a hands on workshop. You
can get detailed information for this on my web site or just call me up. I am 3/4 th's full
right now, so get your reservation in soon if attending! It will be a fun filled two days of
hands on instructions. Learn to put zippers in the right way, line your bag, embellish your
bag, and much much more. On Saturday night a nice evening dinner out with the girls,
with a bit of show-n-tell going on with wonderful door prizes. Treat yourself to an early
birthday present!
NEW YARN: Excited to tell you about some new yarn in from local USA. I have obtained Stonehedge
Yarns from East Jordan, MI. It is a wonderfully soft yarn and great for felting. I have 20 new
colors in while they last. We are trying to replace them as quick as they go. Also, got
some new Llama yarn in from Plymouth, very soft and light weight. Sock yarn just in by
Ty-Dy in several new colorways. The new Zaububall Sock yarn due in right around the 4th
is so cool! Waiting for Zaububall Crazy to come, keep checking with me! We have Furries
by Tilli Tomas. It is eloquent beaded wool yarn. Great for knitting alone, felting or adding a
special touch to any garment.
CASCADE SALE: We still have some Cascade left so hurry on over at this price you can't resist...Buy 1
skein get 1 - 1/2 OFF!
SLOGGERS: What is that! Those are the clear clogs to wear so you can see your wonderful socks you
knit. I have several sizes in ranging from 6 to 10, only come in even sizes. I will also have
them at the Fiber Festival this month. Great to wear and great to show your talents off.
GRANDEHAT: New yarn in chunky coming! It will take one skein of this yarn to make a hat and you will
be given 4 free patterns, which you can knit your choice. Think ahead, think Christmas
gifts. Hope to have the yarn in by August. It will be waiting at the door for you. I will have
tons of color choices.
ULTIMATE TWOSOME RETREAT: If you are on the bubble about this three day retreat don't wait long.
Only six spots left. It will be a total of 48 women, 2 designers, and tons of fun coming your
way for the weekend of October 9, 10, and 11th. More information on my web site or just
call me.
CLOSED: I always hate to close or change my hours, but remember on July 4th not open due to holiday.
July 12th a Sunday closed due to first grandchild's baby shower, which Jamie and I will be
traveling downstate for. July 25th and 26th for the fiber festival, which we hope to see you
there!
Wishing you a safe, happy, and wonderful summer! Remember to buy USA, travel MI, and if your up our way stop in and say HI!
KNIT ON...Cynthia & Jamie
