Christmas in July!

We have some great new workshops planned for our Christmas in July. Check out our website for the full list at http://www.ironhorsefiberart.com/ The goal is to keep your needles and hooks busy while helping to spend the summer stitching!

Tonight was the Stitch Night. It was a nice group of women that were able to meet. There were about 12 of us. We welcome a new stitcher to our group, Pam S. It was so nice to Joni again also. It has been too long. Everyone loved the new yarns from Fleece Artist! Jessica was helping to enable many. Jessica was taking it all in while tryign t ofinish her beautiful Firefly sweater Thank you everyone for the show and tell from small chic hand bags to sweaters, socks and more.

We now get ready for the ArtWalk Thursday evenign from 5:30 to 8:00 PM. We are hoping for great weather. What could be better than sitting outside, enjoying the evening, stitching, spinning or felting with the sidewalks coming alive in Natick Center?

New Yarns from Fleece Artist and Iron Horse Farm

Where has this week gone? It is hard to believe it is already Friday and we have not updated you on all the wonderful yarns that are new in the store. We wanted to have some new yarns and roving in the store for the ArtWalk celebration on Thursday evening (June 17- 5:30 PM to 8:00PM) so we got out the dye pots as well as getting in cashmere/merino/nylon blend sport and fingering/sock weight yarn, our blueface/shetland blend yarn for dyeing. We also put in an e-mail to our friends at Fleece Artist. Once again the ladies did not disappoint us! We got a rush shipment of Nyoni (65% Merino, 20% kid mohair, 10% nylon, 5% silk-325m/115g) - it's back - great for socks, shawl and more! Their new yarns, Saldahna (100% Merino 1200m/125g!) and Ottawa (92% Wool, 8% Viscose - 250m/125g)

Look for our new feature also of little flock of sheep in bright colors that shows you where the latest new yarns are located in the store.

We have a contest for you! Help us name our little yarn sheep and if your name wins you will receive a $25.00 gift certificate to be used in the store for books, patterns, accessories, yarn or roving or towards a workshop in July!
