REVELING IN THE NOVELTY OF NOVELTY YARNS


One thing I've noticed now that I'm rummaging through my sweaters is that I have a lot of simple, run of the mill sweaters. I could be nice and say they are "classic" sweaters, but in reality, they are just plain boring. But remember, scarves and cowls often times replace the need for jewelry.

Thankfully, we have some really fun and interesting novelty yarns at the shop. In about two hours, you can have a brand new scarf to liven up any sweater! Cast on eight to ten stitches, and you are well on your way! Let me show you what I mean!



Jen designed this quick little scarf using one skein of Riviera. She kicks it up a notch with some chunky buttons.



Tul gives an air of pomp and circumstance.



Triana is perfect for those days when you feel a little sassy!



The ruffles of Rizos screams fun, fun,
FUN!


We have shelves stocked full with frilly and ribbony yarn!



And if those aren't enough for you, we have a wall covered with lovely novelty yarns to choose from! See, there's really no excuse to have a boring wardrobe!

JESS' PICK OF THE DAY

One of our customers came in the other day wearing a cowl s
he made using Malabrigo Rasta. One look was all it took for Jess to make it her pick of the day! To make things even better, we have both the yarn and the pattern book! Come and check them out!

The beautiful Malabrigo Book 3, a nice addition to y
our personal library.


Here's the Rasta Neckwarmer that made our little blondie smile.

We encourage you to sit at our table and look through this and many other of the beautiful books we have here at Woolworks!

FIRST NIGHT OF SPINNING FUN AND SUCCESSFUL!

Last but not least, our first official Spinning Group met on Sunday, and it was awesome! Thank you so much to Liz Conway from Fibers 4 Ewe! Because of her we have a lovely space to play. As expected, we had a small group, but we are certain that we will increase in size as time goes on. It was just so nice to spend a few hours talking and spinning scrumptious fiber into beautiful yarn! Our next meeting is on Sunday, October 23rd. Join us!

Happy Knitting and Crocheting, my friends!
