Little Jewels Knit Along

We made it! We’re in that sleepy cozy week snuggled in between Christmas and New Years that the British call “Twixtmas”. If you’re anything like me, you’re thinking about tea, swiss chalet festive special, comfort TV, and knitting ++.  

This year SO many people picked up gift cards, the staff and I thought what better way to use them than to splash out on some of our most precious, gorgeous, and unique yarns. The Little Jewels Knit Along was born!

I invite you to join us in our new studio space, The Hayloft, for our first IN PERSON knit along since the beginning of the pandemic. I’m sure some of you are really curious to check out the new space - this is your chance!

For the Little Jewels theme the staff and I have selected special little knits we’d like to make as a treat for ourselves with our most luxurious yarns. Each of the recommended projects only takes 1 or 2 skeins to keep things affordable. A great way to use a gift card!

Participation in the KAL is free, we just ask that you purchase your yarn from Needles in the Hay.

Dates:

Sunday January 14 |  3 to 5pm - Cast-on Party!
Sunday January 21 | 3 to 5pm - Knit Together, and show off!

Location:

The Hayloft! 381 Water St., 3rd Floor. Directly above the shop.

Enter via the big red door on Water St. just to the south of Watson and Lou. Take the stairs to the top.

Here are our project and yarn Recommendations.
