Week Wound Up – Thursday, June 11

Greetings from space! Here’s what’s been happening around the shop.

New Arrivals

Freshly discovered at TNNA, we’re thrilled to have the very cool new notions available from Cocoknits. The line includes a sweater care set, knitter’s keep, yarn snips, stitch markers and more. Read more about them here.

We have the full range of Woolfolk’s colorways now available in worsted weight. The backordered colors have landed back in the shop. Stop by to check out the supreme softness of this yarn.

Last but certainly not least, we are currently tracking a major new restock from Miss Babs! Keep an eye on Instagram for the arrival of three huge boxes of fingering and worsted weight treats.

What’s Hot

Our June Knitalong is cruising on along. Buoyed by Kirsten Kapur’s visit last weekend, a few of the yarnistas have made it to the finishing stages. We’ve seen great progress on the Ravelry thread. Post your project there or use the hashtag #duaneparkknitalong to be entered to win a gift card.
