I can't believe it is the end of the first day of our anniversary sale- what a great day!! (especially if you don't count the computer issues....) Hurry on in if you get a chance and help us celebrate. We have a great sale: buy 2 similar items at the regular price and get a 3rd for free (for example: 3 yarns, 3 notions, 3 patterns, 3 books- you get the idea- sorry needles are excluded) And of course there are other great deals to be had! The sale goes through Sat., July 17th. I am also so happy to have finished my daughter's wedding accessories. They are being modeled by Lexi, one of our faithful new knitters. The "Little Silk Shrug" is from the book Lace Style. This is such a great series of books from Interweave Press. I just kind of made up the gloves to match- not at all difficult to do. And of course what really makes this set is the beautiful silk/bamboo yarn by Lorna's Laces- "Pearl" in the color cedar. I heard from the bride and she thinks they are gorgeous and of course that makes a mother's heart beat a little faster. The wedding isn't until September, so now I have to finish MY outfit (or should I say my second outfit??). That's the trouble with shopping to0 early! I made one lovely shawl but then I was seduced by the Zephyr Shawl by Great Adirondack. More on that at another time...
