Good morning lovely knitters! So, this week, I started noticing something. I think because of the weather and other stressful things, a whole lot of you haven't checked in to your holiday knitting yet! I know I've been having a hard time realizing how close the holidays are, and I really think I'm not alone in that! So, today - maybe make a list of who you want to make for and what you want to make and pop in to get some gifts on the needles!
I got a few things this week to help out - and mostly I mean - GIANT yarn! Lol! Time for some bulky knits!
We got a gorgeous box of Louisa Harding Enorme and until 12/24/24, we'll send you the pattern for the Bryce Canyon Hat for free when you buy just one skein!
I also got a nice restock of Mirasol Ushya!
And for those of you who are feeling REALLY overwhelmed, I got a whole rack full of finished wool socks! These are gorgeous and let you give a distinctly hand-made looking gift without the time you'd need to do it! (These are only available in store, so pop in to see them.)
We've been shipping Advent Boxes all week. I wanted to let you know that if you hope to have it shipped and get there by December 1st, I would say you only have about a week left (within the US - internationally is already getting late - so if you want one to head out of the country - get on it right this minute)! We're hoping to have some in store for Black Friday weekend, but a lot of the colors are getting close to being sold out (or already sold out), so I'm not sure what will be left by then.
We're having out Christmas Party and Secret Santa exchange on December 8th from 3-6. If you want to participate, pop in or email me so I can send you the little questions, so that we can get you paired up with someone! Knitters are the BEST Secret Santas!
And don't forget to email me if you want to partipicate in our Open Table Family to Family Gift Bag Drive! If you want to join us - please email me and let me know if you can make 1 or more gift bags and bring them to the shop December 11th to 13th. We'll deliver them all over to Open Table that Saturday. There's a suggested shopping list, but I would say - since you are all such amazing crafters to add or alternate out something cozy and knitted on at least one of the days for a super cozy personal touch.
(Gosh - this one is getting long - sorry!) Don't forget to check out our gorgeous Over the Rivel Cowl - our November featured pattern! Get yourself 200 bonus stash cash points when you get this kit in November!
We'll have a NEW Podcast out tomorrow! I think it was a pretty silly one - and fun!
Ok - jeez - time to stop yammering at you! Make your knit list and some see me!
