I have been going through some old pattern books and found a few copies of
Reynolds Lopi Volume 78. It includes
some really nice men's and women's pullovers and cardigans knit in
Alafoss Lopi. I have 4 copies available
with a yarn pac purchase, and a good supply of yarn in stock.
Shetland Wool Week has a new "Buggiflooer Mitts" pattern available to match their
2023 hat, Buggieflooer Beanie.
A digital pattern can be purchased for £5 directly from
Shetland Wool Week,
and I can supply yarn pacs in Jamieson Spindrift,
which is the colorway shown here.
4 colors of new Noro Tasogare
have arrived, including the color used in the "Roswell" sweater shown here, from the new
Noro magazine. "Tasogare" means "twilight" and
these colorways feature undyed dark brown wool mixed with dyed fibers for a more muted self-striping look
than some other Noro yarns.
When I moved my store from Ohio to Virginia, I did not add the needlework kits, etc.
to my web site. I am sorting through the boxes and posting those that are still useable.
These items are all at least 25 years
old and have been in storage most of that time. They would be an inexpensive way to learn
needlepoint, cross stitch, or various types of embroidery.
Keep checking back, as we will be adding things to the web site regularly.

We have re-enabled shipping options to Europe, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.
All packages to destinations outside the U.S. will ship using a service called Global Post. This
is a service where I send packages to a collection point in the US, then they are
bundled and shipped to other countries by Global Post for customs clearance. Once customs
are cleared, the local post office delivers your package.
I do not collect any taxes (VAT) or customs duties owed on international shipments.
You may need to pay these before your package will be delivered.

Teachers from Appomattox Head Start recently visited the store to make a virtual field trip video to share
