Tuesday Night Knitting & Crocheting

by 3 January 23, 2013 1 min read

Hi Folks, it's Maria here from Alpaca Direct!  Tonight from 6-8pm Tina and I are joining our fellow knitters for a couple of hours of kidless, spouseless, petless, knitting and crocheting! This is a chance for fiber artists of all levels to gather in our cozy store and bask in the presence of beautiful yarn and like minded individuals. We also offer classes during these two hours so lack of skill is no excuse! Come on out and join us for a laugh or two. I'll make you a warm cup of tea and feed you chocolate :)

Tues. class

Get your coat and your hat. I'm saving a seat for you.
