May 2018 Newsletter



May 2018 Newsletter
______________________________


I set myself a goal last month to generate a monthly Newsletter with events, classes and of course, News about the shop. 
Did that happen on the 1st May - nope. 
So better late than never and worth the wait - promise.


Shibui Knits OasisYarn of the MONTH - For the Month of May our featured yarn is All Shibui - 20% off
We have decided to feature a yarn or group of  yarns each month which will be on sale for the duration of the month.  We will have free patterns, samples and lots of ideas for what you can make with you new purchase.  This month we chose all Shibui yarns because so many of the patterns call for different Shibui yarns - held together.  Now you have no excuse not to make a fabulous scarf or summer top or sweater in this gorgeous yarn. 

 

Trunk Show - 10th - 21st May Kelbourne Woolens Scout 
Just in time for our first Sweater Club meeting on this coming Thursday, we will have a Trunk Show featuring all the new designs for Kelbourne's latest yarn - Scout.  This is a DK weight 100% Peruvian Wool in luscious colors and we have them all.  One of our Sweater Club choices actual features Scout. 


  

New York Sheep and Wool Festival — 20th October 2018  NEW INFORMATION
We have an update for this great trip that we know you will appreciate.  We have added departure and arrival spots to make your lives easier.  In addition to utilizing The Anderson Regional Transportation Center in Woburn, we will also be picking up in Boston, and at Riverside.  We want to make this as much fun as possible, so hopefully providing spots closer to you will make it easier for that early morning departure - 6.30 am by the way!  We will provide more details on the exact pick-up schedule as the date approaches, but wanted everyone to know about this change.  You will have from 11 until 4 to gather as much as you can and then back on the Bus.  Lots of food, prizes and goodies await.  Any questions, please don't hesitate to call or click to send us an email.  If you want to come along with us, we encourage you to reserve your spot either on-line At Another Yarn or call at 781.570.2134.  We do have three buses this year and have 1 and 1/2 filled.  A deposit of $50 will reserve your seat.  The total trip price is $100.
