Sock Wars!!!

We have two customers, Glenna Eastwood and Ellen Hartzler who are participating this year in "Sock Wars". Below is a pic of Glenna's socks she knitted. She has been working on these for 3 days (give or take a day ), finished and sent them to her target. (You rock Glenna!)

Her partner in crime, Ellen came in on Saturday for a couple more weapons. She was out the door in a flash......
I haven't heard from Ellen since.

I know she's right behind Glenna in the chase.


Go get'em, girls!!
Speaking of socks we have only 6 spaces left in the Knit This, Purl That! Sock Club. If you're thinking about it sign-up online.

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.
