December 19, 2008 Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, it’s all Happy Holidays!Holiday Hours at Yarn Expressions – We’ll be open regular hours through Tuesday the 23rd, and from 11:00 until 1:00 on Christmas Eve. After that we’ll be closed, to reopen on January 5 at 11:00. We’ve done this now for 14 years, and it gives me and my staff plenty of holiday time with our families. In the new year we’ll have all sorts of surprises for you, including the chance to participate in a very special sock club. I can’t tell you any more than that right now, so check back after the holidays for more details. Thank you for your friendship and your patronage. Each one of you enriches my life with knowing you. I hope you all have peace filled, joyful holidays. Filed Under: Store Hours November 30, 2008 2008 Holiday Sale!

We’ll be closed on Monday, Labor Day. 1000 Knitters Project? Everyone who replied quickly enough to garner a spot in front of Franklin’s camera has been notified by e-mail. If you didn’t receive an e-mail from me today, and you think you’re part of the crowd, call me or leave a comment here. Enjoy the holiday! Filed Under: General August 20, 2008 attention Comcast customersFor several weeks now I’ve been getting bouncebacks on e-mail replies sent to customers with Comcast addresses. If you’ve e-mailed me recently and haven’t gotten a reply, that’s why. I always reply, invariably within 24 hours. I don’t know what the source of the problem is, but I don’t want anyone to think I’m ignoring them. If you can’t find my reply in your spam filter and you have another e-mail address you can use, e-mail me again. If not, give me a call at the store. Filed Under: General August 14, 2008 What’s new for August?Here’s a quick blast of pictures from the recent onslaught of boxes we’ve been unpacking.
1,000 Knitters Project update: We’ve reached the limit. Since this is the final public shoot, there are only so many slots left, and, at least for the moment, we’ve filled them. I’m waiting to hear back from Franklin as to whether there might be another one or two spaces available. As soon as I do, I’ll be sending out confirmation notices to everyone who snagged a spot. If you didn’t get a spot, don’t despair. We’re making a party of the day, with refreshments and fun, so do stop by. We’ll be open at 10:00 that day. In case you haven’t noticed, the class list is up. We hope you’ll enjoy the projects and techniques we’ve come up with for the fall. We’ve also scheduled some time for a couple of knit-alongs, one each in September and October, two in November. They’re unstructured and free of charge and a wonderful way to get to know other people with your same knitting taste. Filed Under: What's New? July 23, 2008 Franklin Habit’s 1000 Knitters photo shoot at Yarn ExpressionsYes, my dears, it’s true. Franklin and I have been talking about this for a very long time, and we finally have our ducks in a row. There are two things that make this photo shoot special (well, beyond the fact that it’s Franklin).
The big day is Saturday, October 11th from 10:00 until 4:00. Notice we’re opening an hour earlier than usual. According to Franklin, his best guesstimate of the number of spots that will be left is 40. There might be more, but for right now, we’re going to take 40 reservations, starting Monday, July 28th. Here’s what you need to do (but not before Monday, please): Come to the store or e-mail me (knit at YarnExpressions dot com). I will e-mail you a release that must be filled out and returned to us by October 1. We’ll give you a reminder call on Thursday the 9th to make sure you’re still interested in the sitting. We’ll be making a party of it, so even if you don’t want your picture taken, come hang out for the day. There’ll be sneak peeks of the forthcoming book It Itches, goodies courtesy of Interweave Press and edible treats too. Remember, this will be the very last chance to be part of this unique photo gallery. Mark your calendar, you won’t want to miss the fun! Filed Under: General |
