Where Did October Go?

Well, it just flew by! The leaves are still beautiful in Western North Carolina, and fall is definitely in full swing. Last weekend found us very busy with both the Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands at the Asheville Civic Center and the Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair (SAFF) going on. Both festivals attract our customers and friends. Thanks to everyone who came by the shop or our booth at SAFF - we had a great time seeing old friends and making new ones.  A very special thanks to our regular knitters who joined us to help staff the shop and the booth.  We couldn't have done it without you! 

For your knitting or crochet pleasure, today's yarn is  Mushishi by Plymouth. It's a wool-silk blend and comes in an absolutely huge skein - 491 yards - 250 grams.  Not only that, the yarn label includes free patterns -  a hat and scarf set to either knit or crochet.  We currently have 7 colors in stock.  Mushishi is multicolored, subtly selfstriping  and sweetly textured - kind of tweedy look but very soft.  Holiday knitting?  Think about creating a luxurious scarf, a shawl or maybe even a sweater for your self or someone you love.

Drop by the shop any Friday evening for our friendly Sit and Knit.  Bring your current project or start a new one.  We always have the yarns to make your great ideas happen!
