Here sits Mary, perching on one box to inventory another. I think she could easliy fit into one of these. Only a few dozen left to inventory, Mary! Take a look at the Sale Section if you want to snag some of the great deals from Opal.
Take a look at this awesomeness. Lara, who knit the new baby his first garment recently, was just published in Knitty! Using Simply Sock Yarn! If you come to the store in person, you've seen Lara in here- and usually she's in some state of disarray b/c we've taken off whatever knitted garment she's wearing to fondle and admire it. If she wears in a shawl, she's lucky to leave the store without 20 people touching it. If you want to knit more of Lara's patterns, check out this one (knit by Heather, one of the SSYC Crew who helps pack up your orders) or this one. I have more Madelinetosh Merino Light coming soon if you need yarn for either pattern. CONGRATS, LARA!
wow.......all that yarny goodness just busting out to be put on the shelves!!!!

OMG those are awesome socks! I especially love the solid color heel turn. Great socks with a sense of humor.

Thanks, Allison! It is so sweet of you to write about my work. It means a lot to me to have all of that yarny goodness just around the corner from my home.

I had just briefly looked at the new Knitty earlier today (while dealing with the washer repair guy) & Lara's shawl
Just jumped right out at me. All of her patterns are very appealing.
