A class on how to knit a Christmas stocking would be really nice.
Is there someone there who can pick out the yarn and do a guide ?
When does Christmas yarn go on sale?
” do Christmas canvases go on sale? I’m asking early, I know.
We have some Christmas canvases on sale currently. 50% off. As for Christmas yarn, you never know what will be going on sale next month.
Will there be any Needlepoint classes coming up?
Yes, Gabi. Meg is working on a sampler class. We haven’t finalized dates yet. We are thinking possibly October sometime.
Are you going to continue have needlepoint canvas’s? Did not see any in pictures.
We are definitely going to have canvases. We posted a new canvas on the last update. Meg is planning to go to market next month to get some new stuff.
YAY Madelinetosh, and a sale!!! Time for another trip to the French Knot. Soon my yarn stash will rival my fabric stash. So YAY classes…I need to learn how to actually use this stuff 🙂

I knew this day would come soon. But I was not ready for this day to get here.
I was told that my husband Tommy, has 3-6 months to live.
If you would, please keep us in your thoughts and prayers right now.
Thank you,
Jan Friedlander
October sounds great. And maybe it will bring in the cooler weather too.
I should have mentioned that I was referring to the Christmas stocking possible class.
Love the store–the best selection of yarn ever. Signing up for some classes. Thanks
Meg, Deanne, and the entire crew have worked hard to not only improve the look and service of the French Knot but to also foster an atmosphere where our customers and friends can relax, enjoy each others company,and to learn from one another. While we have made this transition, we appreciate and thank you for your continued patronage and participation.
