Only 53 Days Till Christmas!

How's your holiday knitting coming along?  It's not too late to start some gift knitting.  Hats, mittens, fingerless mittens and gloves, scarves, shawls, socks and slippers are some ideas for quick knits that make great gifts.  For some, there is even time to finish a sweater.

If you need some inspiration, we have new issues of Knit 'n Style and Vogue Knitting.

Here are a few more ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

There are so many unique yarns in the shop to dress up a simple garter stitch scarf.






The bag on the right is knit with Footprints which comes with two colors.  One is self-striping and the other is a complimentary solid.

And a plethora of head coverings.  


Come by for help choosing a pattern and casting on.  Of course you'll need some yarn for these wonderful give away projects.


And for some inspiration for the needlepointers among us, here are some ornaments done by Leona & Georgie.
