Stitches 2011
Wow! What a great day we had! We were busy all day and well received!! Here are some pics of the booth!!
The crankers are a hit! If you don’t know what I am talking about, you need to stop by our booth (417-419) and check it out!
Malabrigo and Madeline Tosh were some of our big sellers! Check out the new yarn – Dolce Vita. It came in just before we left on Wednesday. It is a loopy yarn that you finger crochet! We call the scarf “the 42 block scarf ” because that is how long it took Beth to crochet it!
Have a great weekend. Bus riders -we will see you around 10 tomorrow!!

P.S. the dred bag is the new version knit with malabrigo and stella for a little bling! I knit it for “Bags to Riches “fundraiser. I new it would be really cute or really bad. I think it is really cute!
