Take Tea With Alice
Our latest knitalong starts Sunday with a tea party! It’s all in honor of the Alice In Wonderland theme of our mystery project, a color-blocked neckpiece. Join us from 3 to 5 for tea, refreshments, and the chance to start your project along with other participants. The pattern will be emailed to those who join in a series of clues, the first one on Sunday. Of course, you don’t have to party to participate. In fact, we’ve already heard from a number of out-of-towners who plan to join along remotely. Either way, call or stop in to join. The cost is $7. You can also check out our recommended yarn, a five-color pack of Cheshire Cat yarn. We have several color schemes...

We’re going to party late into the night on Friday, July 18. Come as you are (PJs and sweats encouraged) and join us for a slew of activities.

Read MoreImperial Stock Ranch Comes to Us!
While we’re incredibly excited to head to Imperial Stock Ranch this fall, Imperial Stock will be headed to us on June 7. Jeanne Carver, the incredible force behind the development and growth of Imperial Yarn will be joining us at the shop to tell us the the story of Imperial Yarn. She will be bringing with her a trunk show of beautiful designs made from her wonderful wool (perhaps from the very sheep in the photo above). Plus we will have a smorgasbord of yarns from Imperial Stock to take for a test drive. The trunk show and yarn tasting will run from 1 to 5 p.m. Jeanne’s talk will begin at...
