The is right around the corner -- one week to go! -- and we'll have some fresh goodies in the shop for ya.

💛 We love Ingrid's project bags, and this batch is extra good! We have drawstring bags in two designs: tulips and doodles; snap bags in a cheery teal grid; and zippered bags in a bright pink!

💛 From -- who make our popular embroidery samplers and embroidered doll kits -- we have some of their felt ornament kits for your stitching enjoyment.

💛 Metal notions tins from .us come with tapestry needles 🐈‍⬛ or locking stitch markers 🐈

💛 Speaking of notions, these fresh-caught fish pouches ( also from .us )
will hold your essential tools and slip right into your project bag.

💛 Last but DEFINITELY not least, created our exclusive colorway, Space Oddity. It's available in Adella's Wax Bean base, a fi*****ng weight blend of superwash merino and silk. I knit a shawl -- Aveya by -- with one skein, and the yarn and pattern are so gorgeous together.

The KC Yarn Crawl runs from Thursday, September 17 through Sunday, September 20. We can hardly wait to see y'all!

Reminder: we are closed Monday, September 7 for Labor Day.

Friends! Grab your project and join me at on Sunday, September 6 at noon for a conversation about Aran Knitting! I'll be at The Cottage at Patty's An Teach Beag (Little House) Stage!

Named for the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland, this knitting style features highly textured fabrics; the iconic cabled Irish Fisherman’s sweater (or jumper) is an example.

Did the classic style really originate on the Aran Islands-- or is Scotland in play?? We’ll find out!

I have a couple free tickets to the KC Irish Fest to give away; leave a comment and I'll draw winners Tuesday!

Our friend Kim (of Kim Dyes Yarn fame) isn’t on IG but I wanted to share this with y’all. Her Dolly-inspired colorway, Coat of Many Colors, is having a moment. This was her colorway for Nash Yarn Fest and she’s offering preorders — with 15% of sales to Dolly’s Imagination Library ! You can find it on Kim’s website; I’m heading there now to order some for me!!

Not to brag, but I’m basically a French knot expert* now because of our Beginner Embroidery class taught by Anna Calvillo • Learn Hand Embroidery🪡 💛. If you too want to be a better embroiderer, Anna has a class next Wednesday, Sept. 2, with a few open spots. Sign up at the link in our IG bio/on our website!
* I might be exaggerating slightly, but I’m WAY better at French knots than I was before taking Anna’s class!
