Luxurious yarn


We see a lot of yarn come and go in the store but after Classic Elite released a new pattern in their weekly email newsletter called the Alpaca Sox Shawlette we knew we needed this yarn in the store. It is 60% Alpaca, 20% Merino wool and 20% Nylon. It works up on a size 2 needle or if making shawls or wraps with it a larger needle.


I will be taking a break from the store and the blog for a vacation to some place warm. Considering for the first day of Spring yesterday we were having snow showers and more predicted for tomorrow night and early Thursday, our time away is seeming better and better!


We would love for you to visit the store this next week and show the ladies who are working extra hard, what is on your hooks, looms or needles. We always love to see projects completed or in the works.

March is here!



Yes, we know, we have not been writing much in two months. Hard to believe! The New England weather has been, well New England! Snowy one day, warm the next, thunderstorms in the middle of winter. In other words unpredictable.


Some of you may know that we have a knit-a-long in process in the store. It has been fun to work through the sweater pattern as well as see what otehr knitters have chosen for colors. Stay tune for Friday. We will try and take photos this Friday.

The one shining ray is that we are predictable! We are open six days a week, Monday through Saturday 10 AM to 5 PM. If we have an evening class, we are open until 8:30 PM. We suggest you call before traveling over in the evening to make sure we are here.


We are itching for spring to arrive. Today was a beautiful, blustery, sunny day. We are actually seeing a little green on the ground in Natick common. That got us motivated to start the new free Woodland turtle neck cowl from Classic Elite. We are knitting it in the green colorway. It is a beautiful yet easy lace pattern.


Stay tune for more nature inspired projects.
