Hi LYS Friends!

We’re excited to tell you that we are ready to start our Friday afternoon knitting group again! We’ll meet at the new location on Friday between noon & 2 P.M. Bring your knitting or crochet projects & come for a visit. Next week (September 11), there will be a door prize for anyone who comes to knit that mentions this post!

There are great restaurants, shops & a nice cafe at Kitchen Kettle Village in Intercourse–so come early & stay late! In the event that the shop is busy, we have a great space upstairs for knitting & hanging out, too.

Mark your calendars, we will not meet on “Black Friday”–this year that is Friday November 27th.

Don’t forget to check the website for new class listings. We’ll be teaching all sorts of classes between now & the holidays & we’d love to have you sign up for one or two. October is Socktober at LYS–get ready for non-stop socks!

Hope to see you soon,
Wendy
