Weekend Round Up!

Plied Knowledge: The week that was…

At the warehouse:

• Boy howdy was it a busy week at the warehouse... First off, Knitted Wit Minis are back! Looking for a solid color alternative for your Itty Bitty Ornaments? Check out the Gems Fingering skeins and the Gems DK weight? Perfect for a color work hat for a last minute gift...
• Fiona Kay Knits arrived this week as well and it is always a delight to get something from one of our favorite former Twistedistas...
• It wasn't just yarn that showed up this week, either. A lovely box from Katrinkles also arrived carrying not just restocks of popular items like our mini-tools, but new stuff, too!
• Our Brooklyn Tweed sale a few weeks ago depleted much of our stock so this shipment was very much needed to fill the shelves...
• Freia is another one of our favorites for when we need a boost of color and this shipment did not disappoint...
• It's not to late to make a gift! Check out our single patterns for last minute pattern ideas for the holidays...
