Join us for Stitch & Bitch tonight, from 6 to 8:30pm!  Bring your project and spend some quality time with your fellow knitters!

 

We have gorgeous new sock yarn in from Urban Gyp-Z, finish-it-fast merino:

 

 

The colors are vivid and bright, and it's a heavier weight for fast knitting socks!

This was the scene after closing Saturday; the sale wore us out! The champagne and sugar kept us going, though!

We sold lots of yarn to lots of happy customers, but we still have a lot of Debbie Bliss yarns that need good homes! We've decided to extend the closeout specials to find new owners for these soft. loveable yarns. Won't you come in and adopt some snuggly, bargain-priced yarns? There are Clover needles and other closeouts at great mark-downs that could follow you home, too!

Our sturdy, reliable little swift finally succumbed to the ravages of three years of rough daily use yesterday.  Poor little guy.  I thought about how we used our Nifty Swift, and figured that it probably got about ten times as much use as the average knitter's home swift.  What a trooper! 

It's been temorarily replaced while I consider whether or not to repair the break.   I'm just thankful we haven't had to do this for three years, as picturesque as it is:

Knit Nouveau 3rd Anniversary Sale!
St. Patrick’s Day - Saturday, March 17, 10am to 4pm.
 
Put down that glass of green beer and dump out that pot o’gold because with a
sale like this you’re going to need the space for your yarn stash!
 
Closeout Specials on select Debbie Bliss Yarns, Clover Needles, and much more!
 
Try your Irish luck in our drawing for a discount up to 40% off your sale-day purchases*, even closeout yarns!  That means once-a-year discounts on bags, books, needles, and patterns!  Go wild!
 
*In stock items only, no special orders or rainchecks.  Discounts do not apply to classes or services.  Knit Addict cards will not be punched, since every sale day purchase will be discounted, but full punchcards may be redeemed.
 
 Our shipment of Balance, a 50/50 blend of organic cotton and organic wool, arrived yesterday.  This yarn is gorgeous!  A light worsted or DK gauge, it will fit a wide range of patterns, and is soft with a pleasant crisp cotton feel.  I haven't gotten to snap a pic yet, but come in to see this lovely, earth-friendly yarn!
 

 
Stitch & Bitch is tonight from 6 to 8:30pm.  Bring your project and join the fun!  I've been on a sock kick, which I'll be posting about after I'm done with all of this weekend's sale preparations, so I'll have my socks (but which pair?  Hmmm.) to knit on.

08 March 07 - 19:58Stitch and Bitch Mix-up

Hi everyone,

A major typo was brought to my attention today, concerning the Stitch & Bitch dates for March.  Our next S&B night is March 15th, then another on the 29th.  We had accidentally published the alternating Thursdays.  Sorry for the mix-up, and we hope to see you at the next gathering!

Due to the severe weather, we will be closing at 2pm today.  Stitch and Bitch is cancelled for tonight.  Be Safe!

We've added a Handspinning class to the March schedule, taught by instructor Debbie Scott from the Greater Birmingham Fiber Guild.  The class is Saturday, March 24th, from 1 to 2:30pm.  Call or stop by to register.
