It is quite an adventure coming down here! To thank all of our loyal customers for braving the construction zone we are throwing  a "No" Sidewalk Sale. From Thursday May 1st through Sunday, May 4th we will be offering 20% off storewide. Yarn, needles, notions, bags, books- you name it, it will be on sale. Don't miss out!!
