Impromtu Topsy Turvy Sale and Retreat Reminder

Happy Labor Day to everyone!

If you have been in the shop lately, you know things are a little topsy turvy!! We are reorganizing the shop, so its a little crazy.

We decided why not add to the craziness and have a sale!?!?!?

The more yarn we sell during the sale, the less we have to move this weekend!

So, for every $50 you purchase, we will give you a $5 gift certificate to be used that day or in the future. The $50 will include the guild discount if you are a member of the Knit at Night Guild.

The sale will start tomorrow, Thursday, and run through Saturday.

Also, remember, if you are interested in joining us for the Fall Knitting Retreat in Fredericksburg, the sign up starts Saturday, September 1. Registration must be mailed in and post marked no earlier than September 1. Details about the retreat are available on our web site under "What's New".

Join in our craziness and stop by!
