Be sure to come by the shop to check out the Brooklyn Tweed Ganseys Collection during its last weekend with us. We have many of the beautiful sweaters and hats that you can check out in person. They are covered in beautiful textures and cables that will surely compliment any wardrobe!
Jill Draper and all her stuff are coming to space! Join us on June 17th and 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.
