Whip Your Knits Into Shape

A Shaping Workshop with Joan McGowan-Michael

Joan McGowan-Michael of White Lies Designs and author of Knitting Lingerie Style will be here on Nov. 7th & 8th for a very special workshop. This is an event you can’t afford to miss.

What’s it about?

In her own words:
“Adding designer shaping touches to your knitted garments is easy once you know a few simple rules and how to apply them. Flatter your figure by shaping any garment as you knit it. Darts, ease, and short row shaping are all important elements for a custom fit. Learn which ones to use to play up your specific body type to it’s best advantage.”

Be sure to check her website White Lies Designs for more information on this fabulous designer.

Are you ready for a party? We are!

This Saturday is a MUST ATTEND event! Our vendors were incredibly generous and sent us a ton of goodies to give away to you. So join us starting at 10:00am for food, fun, and yarn. We will be drawing names for prizes at 2:00pm, so be sure to come in before then. (You don’t have to be present to win.)

It’s been a long couple of days, but Sonja is ready to rest and pick up her knitting.  Join us this Thursday (September 4th) for stitching on the patio.  We’ll be open for stitching starting at 5:30pm.  Come see the new location and get your stitching fix!

And just because we know you can’t wait, here’s a few little photos to help tide you over.
