    We were delighted to see ALBERT the UPS GUY at our door today with a big box from BRYSON. Inside? PATTERNS GALORE. We mean HUNDREDS. In addition to old favorites like VERMONT FIBER DESIGNS and FIBER TRENDS, we have added some new vendors like DOLCE HANDKNITS. So come check them out. And remember, if you buy yarn for the pattern project, the pattern is FREE!! Free is good.

    UPCOMING EVENTS AT WOOLWINDERS

    We had a wonderful weekend despite our having spaced out and forgotten to schedule a program yesterday! But we have a great one coming up. First of all, please note we will be CLOSED on SATURDAY, JULY 4 for the holidayl But join us on SUNDAY the 5th for the uber-popular WOVEN MARKET BAG. This is the perfect summer accessory-great for the beach, the produce stands, the flea market, etc. It takes 200 yards of worsted weight cotton (we did ours in LAUREL and had enough left over for another one!) and straight needles size 10.5 and circs in 24” size 13 or 15. If you want to sign up for this FREE program, just give us a call at 240.632.9276. But please do your homework beforehand—we will tell you what it is when you register. The bag has a flat and boring bottom to knit—no need to take class time to do it! We will, however teach you to pick up stitches and do some lace knitting. This is a great first lace project. And did we mention the program is free? We saw the same one advertised at a nearby store for $65. Save your money for YARN!!!!

Simply go to the bottom left side of this home page and follow the instructions. You will get a couple of prompting messages back via email ensuring that you really want to sign up—aren’t anti-spam features great?
