Good morning lovely knitters!  I've been so happy about the cooler temperature - especially those nice chilly mornings this week!  It makes me feel like casting on ALL of the things!  I've got a really awesome new sweater pattern coming soon, but I think we're going to take fun pictures while we're away, so it will be released when we get back - probably around 9/15.  If you want to come in and try it on though, come on in!  I've been delighted to see how it looks good on everyone!

There's only one more week for our Coconuts for Freedom kit to be our featured pattern!  And really - earlier is better on this one because I have to finish dyeing everything in the next few days, so if you want to make sure you get your kit (s) in the colors you want, grab one soon!

We're wrapping up our baby sweater charity knitting for this round and you guys have been amazing!  I have to double check my numbers, but I think we're pushing 300 baby sweaters that have gone over to the Beth Israel NICU!  Thank you guys so much (all of you, near and far) for being so generous with your knitting time!

There is some new yarn in the sale bin!  Take a peak and grab it fast - very short supply on some of those! 

We released a fun podcast on Sunday - it'll be the only one this month, so you've got time to catch up on everything!

Make sure you mark your calendar for the Greater Boston Yarn Crawl - September 26-29th!  And while you are with your calendar, check out our new classes for Fall and sign-up soon!

And just so you know - we'll be open regular hours while I'm gone, Wednesday thru Saturday, 12-5 (including Labor Day weekend)!  But email will be a little spotty, so please forgive us if there is a delay getting back to you.

I hope to see you today!
