I don't want to count it

I picked up a book I hadn't read in awhile and I highly recommend it.  Gift from the sea by Anne Lindbergh.
She definitely gets you thinking about how to center you life and how to keep things/people/events from pulling you like a centrifuge away from yourself.   Everyone has ways, but I think knitting and crochet are one way that people find to feel creative and have "alone" time.

Don;t forget the "I don't want to count it" sale.  It goes on through January.  If I have a good email for you, you got an email and if I have an address you got a snail mail post card.
If you got neither, then either you did not give me the information or I typed it wrong.  So, come in enjoy the sale and you can give me good info if you want to keep updated.
Yarn, books, needles are all on sale.
By the way, when you look at a bin in a yarn shop, you often are looking at the color choices (unless we sold  all of a color out of a bin and haven't restocked it yet).  Here at Yarnia, I find it easier to keep the extras in the back in a bag instead of taking the bin apart to look for them.  If the one or two  balls you see are not enough for your project, please ask.  We have a lot of back stock (hence the sale).  I could have 30 of that yarn that you think I only have 2 skeins of.   It is also worth asking if I have the color you want, in case it is not stocked on the shelf at the moment, especially during a sale.

Looking for some interesting double knit patterns... check out Esther Smith Bozak's site  see the reversible scarves article.
