We are leaving out most of the containers - many having been restocked with sale yarns.  If you didn't get everything you needed, or weren't able to get in to the shop at all- this is your chance to still get some bargains.
 
And we will still offer our Knitter's Edge bag free with a $25.00 purchase.  We purchased over 300 of them, and still have a few left.
 
bag
As a special thank you to everyone who comes- we offer a free Knitter's Edge bag with a $25.00 purchase.  Please, only one per customer.
