World Wide Knit in Public Day (WWKIPD) is coming! We are officially celebrating all day on June 19th with public knitting, crocheting, spinning, and YES, there will be alpacas here at the shop this year! Like last year, we will be holding free, open to the public events throughout the day. We will be teaching small workshops on all those tips and tricks that will help your knitting look perfect, including spit splicing, Russian joining and weaving in ends. These workshops will be completely FREE and everyone is welcome to attend. We will set up outside the shop and whether you come for an hour or the entire day, get your knitting out of the closet, and let the public know how many knitters are out there!
The week leading up to WWKIPD, June 15th β the 18th will be filled with special sales! We will be announcing these fantastic deals Saturday, so be sure to check your email!
