We Had a Little Surprise

Jo Ippolito Christensen, author of The Needlepoint Book, stopped by the shop to say hello.  We had a great visit with her and she even signed our copies of her book.  What a treat.

 

One Final Announcement

If we are holding yarn for you in the office, you should pick it up.  We will be re-shelving it next week.

  1. Enjoyed reading your news letter. I am in Western North Carolina after 5 1/2 feet during Katrina. I am pleased to tell you that Jo Ippoloto Christensen’ s book survived the water and I am glad to have a copy.

    • We don’t know when your Kitchen Witch will come in. The finishers take a couple of weeks off after the Christmas Rush.

    • We will be doing a basic cuff down sock with a heel flap style heel. If you want, we could incorporate a pattern into it for you, since you are no longer a beginner, eh?
