Magazine Update and Patternbook Sale!



There's great news for those of you who missed out on the Winter-Spring 2010 issue Knitscene. Our first shipment of this eagerly anticipated magazine sold out in a matter of days. (No surprise, considering Connie Chang Cinchio's Geodesic Cardigan, pictured above, is already in more than 1500 cues on Ravelry). We've just received a bonus shipment so hurry down and pick up your copy before they're gone for good!

We're also getting a jump on spring cleaning by marking down our inventory of back issues of Knitter's, Interweave Knits and Interweave Crochet, as well as selected pattern books from Berroco and Classic Elite. This is a chance to get some stock up on some great stash-busting inspiration at bargain prices of up to 40% off the regular price!

Drop Spindle - Spin Your Own Yarn!

Learn the very satisfying craft of making yarn by using a spinning stick - a drop spindle. You'll leave the class knowing how to twist fibre to form yarn. While we're practicing, we'll talk about washing wool, carding the fleece, combing the fleece and fibre tools. This class is for beginners who want to explore an easy, affordable, portable and relaxing way to make yarn.

Prerequisites: None

Instructor: Suzy Belt

Sunday, March 1st, 10am - 1pm

Fee: $70 (includes a drop spindle and 1/4 lb/125g of fibre)
