Events
World Wide Knit in Public Day is tomorrow, Saturday June 18th. Join us from 1-4 pm at the Commerce Street Park to share our craft with the world. We’ll also have prize drawings all day!
Jill Draper and all her stuff are here in space! Join us today, June 17th and tomorrow, June 18th for the Jill Draper Makes Stuff trunk show. Meet Jill and shop a huge variety of her beautiful yarns, spinning fiber and kits. She’ll even have one of a kind colorways and exclusive kits, as well as a brand new yarn debuting at the shop!
Nothing’s better than no risk and all reward! Ann Weaver’s new workshop No Risk, All Reward Steeks! on June 25th is a great introduction to the world of steeking colorwork. Using old store bought or thrifted sweaters, you’ll master steeking without spending countless hours knitting ahead of time. But once through, you’ll have all the skills you need to complete your own handknit steeked sweater while having a super cute cardigan from class.
