Erlinda from Cascade Yarns will be visiting us for this Friday (August 3) afternoon and evening from 4 to 7 pm.  She’s bringing door prizes, yarn samples, and knitted garments for show and tell. Of course we’ll have drinks and snacks as well (feel free to bring something to share). Erlinda is a great knitter, and knows everything there is to know about Cascade Yarns including this fall’s new yarns!  Please drop us a line via e-mail sales@knittingetcithaca.com or phone 607-277-1164 telling us you plan on coming.  We’ll make sure to have enough samples of yarn for everyone.

And, as you might have guessed, our happy hour special will be 20% off all Cascade Yarns in stock, and we’ll offer free shipping as well on any special orders made that day.

Come meet Stacey Trock, the author of these two books full of incredibly cute crochet designs, from 10 am to 1 pm this Saturday, July 14!  Both of her books are in stock if you want to pick up a copy to peruse before the event.  Her web site is http://www.freshstitches.com.

Stacey recently moved to Ithaca.  Come give her the warmest welcomes to our town!
