Things do get away from me. And this blog has been one of them! There have been a lot of changes since I last wrote. Many yarn shops have closed in CNY and across the country. Some of the yarn companies are experiencing major loss of sales due to these closures. The Yarn Cupboard continues to push forward in hopes that the future in the fiber business will settle and many will return to support their LYS.
We have had a busy year so far. Bente Geil from Geilsk yarns in Demark came to Jamesville to teach some of her techniques for her patterns. She also helped many to choose the right Geilsk yarn for their specific pattern.
Our 6th Annual retreat was held this past April. It was a great weekend, with wonderful instructors and lovely people attending. Our retreat next year will be the weekend of April 28th, 2017.
Our annual knitting afternoon at Jephson estate will be held this August on the 14th from 12noon to 4pm. Please give us a call to reserve your spot for lunch and knitting with friends.
Classes continue just about daily. Call to check on availability. We would love to see you.
And as always- the Yarn Cupboard continues to carry diverse companies, diverse price points and wonderful patterns from fabulous designers.
I will not wait so long for our next post. I would be happy to answer any questions- just ask!!
