Wow! It's been WAY too long since I've posted! Lots of things are going on, just back from a fun ski vacation, getting back into the swing of things, and a big change in hours at the yarn shop. As many of you know by now, I've taken a morning babysitting job. I'm taking care of an adorable 8 month old boy. It's required a pretty extensive change in the store hours but I know that it will be for the best in the long run. My main goal is to keep the store open. I am just way too passionate about knitting to let it close. So, that said, my new hours are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 2:30-5:30pm, Friday 1:30-5:30, Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 12-4pm. So far, this afternoon has been pretty busy!
I've got a few new classes coming up. Knitting with beads is on Thursday night, Learn What U Want starts on Monday the 7th (4 weeks and then a week knitting at the Barnacle!), Thrummed Mittens is on Tuesday the 8th (3 weeks), Finishing starts on Sunday the 20th (2 weeks) and hopefully we'll get a crochet class in there before the end of the month too. Additional details about classes are available on my website, http://www.yarnovermarblehead.com/
One of the most fun classes I've been having is Learn What U Want. It's mellow and fun and you can work and get help on anything you like. We all laugh and enjoy ourselves while we knit and the best part is the week at the Barnacle! We all get together for a last meeting in the bar to knit and have a drink. As you can imagine, we attract a good amount of attention since most people that go to the Barnacle aren't knitting! Most people come up to us and tell us that their Grandma used to knit which is kind of funny because none of us are Grandmas! We're all young, hip, knit chicks! There's still some space in this class and as it becomes full I will add a night for another Learn What U Want class. Won't you join us?
Happy knitting!!
