Our Favorite Working Woman...

Rosemary Heideman was on KCCI Channel 8 for a segment on Working Women and we thought you would enjoy it as much as we have!

Knitter’s Night Out . . .
Friday, July 17 from 6 – 9 pm FREE! A little bit of wine, good food and great friends—always a winning combination! At Knitter’s Night out, we spend the evening laughing, sharing patterns, showing off projects and enjoying an evening of “knit talk.” Come see our new yarns, new colors, new books and samples from our upcoming classes/workshops. Bring munchies, wine or soft drinks for sharing. AND . . . we’ll be adding yarns to our sale table so join us for a sneak preview starting at 6 p.m.

Beginning Knitting for Kids and Teens
By popular request, we’ve added a Beginning Knitting class specifically for kids and young adults. Aspiring knitters, aged 8 – 16 years, will have fun while learning the basics of knitting, as well as work on projects such as a cell phone carrier, wash cloth, and skinny scarf. See our Classes page for meeting times and other details.

Charity Knit-a-Long
Inspired by the popular book, Knitting For Peace by Betty Christiansen, we'll be hosting weekly drop-in knit-a-long sessions. Everyone's welcome: Guys and gals, youngsters and the young-at-heart, and knitters of all skill levels.

We have a limited quantity of the Knitting For Peace books in the shop for purchase. If you want to learn more about the history of charity knitting, about knitting collectives that empower craftsmen and women around the world, or how knitting can comfort a troubled soul, let this volume be your inspiration. Oh, and it includes some GREAT patterns too!

So...if you're a fan of knitting, world peace and good karma, please join us.
