We can rebuild it. We have the technology.

And so, the store spinning wheel is geared up and ready to go for the class on Wednesday. Had a slight problem in that the tension knob has gone missing, so we jerry-rigged one using a dowel and two staples, lol. Heh. Well…it works!

We’ve got some neat new arrivals…Nashua Handknits Wooly Stripes is one of them…

Soft and stripey…gotta love it. We also got a bunch of different Nashua pattern books as well.

We also got this bit of lovely from Lantern Moon:

Now that’s a stocking stuffer, eh? This little confection is a 72 yard ball of 100% silk ribbon in shimmery colors. It is made of cut strips of silk taffeta and hand-tied every 2 yards into a continuous strip. This yarn is a result of a collaboration with designer Leigh Bradford and we have a nice, simple scarf pattern to use with just the one ball. There are also patterns for a small clutch, a silk pillow, lamp shade and a lapel pin! Even the names are yummy - blueberry, bittersweet, butterscotch, raspberry, melon and blue ice!

And speaking of the holidays…we’ve got some fun Regia sock yarn for just that reason.

Yeah, we know they’re Nation Stripes, but they totally work as Christmas or Candy Cane socks also! For fun we also got in some of the black and yellow for any bumblebee lovers out there!

Stay dry out there — looks like we’ve got a weekload of rain to look forward to this week!
