Thanks to all who came by to help us celebrate our first full year as the new owners of the Ball & Skein. With your generous help, we raised $300 for the Women's Shelter Program of San Luis Obispo County! Thank you all!!

Come join us for a Cambria tradition! Hospitality Night runs from 5:30-9:00 pm throughout Cambria. You'll see the town all lit up for the holidays. The town will host a tree lighting ceremony, and all over town will be food, music, photos with Santa, and many special events. We'll have music in the shop and will be offering some fun raffle prizes as well! For information about Hospitality Night call 805-927-3624

Yes, it's that time of year, and so many of us are struggling to find that special something for that special someone. We have some unique knitting and crochet tools, including the Knit Kit, in Holiday Red! This fun tool contains a knit counter, a thread cutter, a double ended repair hook, a tape measure, TSA compliant scissors, point protectors, stitch markers, and a darning needle, all in one handy Red case! Stop by and see this and so many other unique things we have. And remember, we also offer Gift Certificates in any denomination you choose!

Yep. New fun things coming in from Feza and Fiesta, as well as a new NORO yarn that's so soft and full of that delicious Noro color. Kogarashi is 51% silk, 49% wool, knits as a bulky yarn, and has that wonderful self-striping effect we so love from Mr Noro. It's on its way in every color they spin!
We also have Fiesta La Boheme and Feza Alp Premier and Feza Alp Throw kits in stock. Feza Alp Premier comes with a free pattern to make a fun, fast, and unique scarf!

We see it, we read it, what does that mean? What we say is hand wash - gently - in cool/cold water using a very gentle detergent such as Eucalan. The nice thing about Eucalan is is requires no rinsing. Whatever you do don't use soap flakes on knitted garments as the soap gets stuck in the stitches. As far as Lay Flat - ideally the garment would be suspended on a mesh screen allowing air to circulate around it to dry it completely. If you can't do that, setting it on a towel is just fine as long as you turn it often.

We'll be closed on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day. We'll be open as usual from 10 - 5 after that. We'll let you know about Christmas and New Years next month.
