What happened to Spring ????

Where did the warm weather go? We've been talking about summer knitting and we need our winter woollies!!! Burrrr....

We are expecting any day a new shipment from Artyarn. We have 16 new colors of Beaded Silk and Beaded Cashmere/Silk blend. This yarn is so luxurious and we ordered many new patterns that go along. Nina will be flipping out because her job is checking in new patterns. Oh, did I mention that she hates that job. :)

Also, arriving any day are Denise Needle Kits, (great Mother's Day gift) Addi Turbos, Linie Solo, Misti Alpaca Super Chunky (4 new colors) and Lantern Moon Gelato Silk.

I taught a Beginning Knit Class last night and every one of the ladies did awesome. They were all knitting and purling by 9. That does my heart good... More knitters...YAY!

Over the weekend Team Unraveled went to the Makers Fair and met The Yarn Harlot. The report was what a hoot she is!
Jan is feverishly working on the "Bobbles for Boobies" socks and we will have the kits ready in about a week. Remember that all the profits benefit The 3 Day Walk.

We also have a new employee at Knit This, Purl That!. Stop by and say hello to Deborah. She will be working on Monday mornings and is looking forward to meeting all of you. Welcome to the team Deborah!

Summer Knits...

What I love most about summer knitting is it takes no time at all to whip up tank tops, and tees, camis, and cardigans. Come by and be inspired by our pattern binders and whip yourself up a new wardrobe in no time!

Linda O’Connor stopped by yesterday to show us her latest project. Linda knit up the cute little top from Pretty Knits called “Avril” Shrug. Linda chose to use Blue Sky Alpaca/Silk in Color #33 Ice. This is Linda’s 1st lace project. You go girl! I am so proud of you......

Paul, our UPS guy arrived with boxes yesterday. We received 6 new colors of Noro Matsuri and more Namaste Bags. YAY!!! Jan is sporting a new Olive Green Laguna bag herself and loving it. Jan said, "Everyone wants to know where I got it and I replied at Knit This, Purl That! of course." Our wonderful customer Martha stopped by and pickup a beautiful gray Namaste "Laguna". She was all smiles as she walked out the door.


Jan is busy designing a new sock kit for our 3 Day Walk team to sell and all the profits will benefit our Team “Unraveled”. Watch for Bobbles for Boobies updates!

The Sit n Knit group met last night at the beautiful downtown Pleasanton Rose Hotel for an evening of knitting and sharing. I really enjoyed joining the group outside of the store. I am always amazed at what a talented group of women there are.
Christina, Kristin, Betts, Charlotte and Shelly are heading this weekend for their Sea Socks Cruise to Alaska. Have fun girls and bring back a lot of pictures and ideas to share.
