What's New in December 2005. . .
Our very own Mary Jane has become a celebrity! She entered the Interweave Press Scarf
Style contest here at the DFW Knit Out and Crochet event back in
September. She won the GRAND
PRIZE for the DFW area!
Way to go, Mary Jane!
Her scarf is now on the
Interweave Press’ website for all the world to see. Please go and check it out.

A shadow scarf kit is available for purchase. Please call the shop or send an email
for more information.
It’s finally starting to get a bit chilly here in Texas. You know what that means…time to kick
it up a notch and finish (or start) all those knitted gifts!
In the spirit of the holidays, Simpatio Yarns is helping the Fort
Worth Day Resource Center with a donation of knitted hats for the
homeless. We want as many hats as
we can possibly get for this purpose by December 13th, so we have decided
to donate a skein of Encore to anyone that is willing to knit up a hat
and donate it for this cause. One
skein of Encore will make 2 adult hats.
You are only required to make one hat and keep the rest for
yourself if you’d like…or you can make 2 hats and donate both! All this will cost is your time. If you would like to participate,
please drop by and pick out a color!
If you fear you can’t come back to the store by the December 13th
deadline, you can mail it to us! All
it’ll cost is 2 stamps to mail the hat back to us.
Gift certificates are also available for the knitters in your life
that are hard to shop for. Any
amount is available for purchase.
Make it easy on yourself.
All knitters love a gift certificate to their favorite local yarn
store! They are available via
phone or email.
New on the bookshelves are:
Knitting Pattern-A-Day Calendar for 2006
which includes two patterns from our very own Knitting
Fairy, Alissa Barton
The Knitting Experience: Color
, third in a series from Sally Melville
Wool Gathering #73 from Meg
