Auntie Wooly Says:
Dahlings! EXPRESS YOURSELF!
So many people are so afraid of starting something, doing something, or creating something. The fear seems to be in not doing it 'right'.
We say - what's right? It's your creativity, it's your time, it's your yarn - express yourself! Wear bright pink, change colors halfway through, try a new stitch, work up colors you never work with. Play, have fun, and above all -
EXPRESS YOURSELF!
Untill next time... Happy Stitching, My Dears! Auntie W.

 So Many New Things!
We'll start with Colinette AbFab kits! Those of you who have worked these up know how fun and addicting they can be. Knitted on US 11s, or crocheted on a K hook, the kits come with 4 knitted throw patterns, a crocheted throw pattern, and a knitted shawl pattern. Available in 35 different colorways, we have a lot of them in stock right now. If you don't see the colorway you're dreaming of, let us know and we can order it for you!
We also received a shipment of their cotton based tape Giotto. For a fun, quick knit, cast on 17 stitches on a US 11, and seed stitch (K1, P1) till you run out of yarn! Click here to see the colors!
 Addi has just released the addi Click Lace - Long Tips kits!
Each addi Click Lace - Long Tips kit features 8 pairs of addi Lace tips in approximate US sizes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11, along with 3 pliable blue addi-Lifeline Cords which create 24", 32", and 40" needles (approximate lengths), 1 Click connector, needle gauge, and a gold addi heart pin. The addi Click Lace - Long Tips are just over 5 inches in length (nearly 2 inches longer than the basic Lace Click tips), which will benefit those knitters who prefer a longer tip. As a bonus, the new kit is housed in an eye-catching hot pink case, which is sure to turn heads.
The addi-Lifeline Cords were created to allow knitters to work a lifeline in to their projects, quickly and easily. Each cord features two threadable eyelets on each end, near the tip connections, through which a waste yarn can be run. When not in use, the eyelets remain closed so as not to interfere with one's knitting. Those that have tried them, love them!
The addi Interchangable sets are all available by clicking here!

 Moving?
Yes, it's true. This Spring, after over 30 years on Burton Drive the Ball & Skein is moving! We're moving to a much larger space about a block away on the corner of Main street and Bridge street in what's sometimes known as " the Tin Building." We're sad to say goodbye to our old location, but we just couldn't squeeze one more skein in the space! We're not moving immediately as we have lots of 'build-out' to do, but we're expecting to be moved in sometime in May. We'll keep you up-to-date with the progress as we embark on this new chapter of the shop!

Thank You
Gratitude doesn't begin to say it. We're overwhelmed by the support we've received from all of you. If someone had told us three years ago we'd be more than doubling our space in less than three years, we'd have laughed. And yet - here we are. We're so grateful to this amazing community for allowing us to be a small part of it.
Thank you so much, from all of us here at the Ball & Skein & More.
