I MISS YOU GUYS!


Hi everyone!! This is megy, writing to you from a closet in NYC. For those of you who don't know, I moved here to do an internship with Twinkle. I wanted to write to everyone, including the whole Stitch team, to tell them how much I adore my memories of having worked there for the past 2 years- from Silly Stitchers to Randy's mom Gigi, from dyeing yarn amidst a Ben Harper sing-a-long to being inspired by so many customer's ideas..! I got drunk on sisterhood- I don't think I could ever be happier. Anyway, wanted to as well send a photo of the cutest hat that Lisi found the pattern for. It's awesome crocheted up in a nice, cool summer fiber, like linen or bamboo or cotton. Go to the Stitch, kiss them for me and make this cutey hat happen to you too!

LOVELOVELOVE,

megy in NYC!

Isn't it cute? Tracy Kincheloe made it and will be TEACHING how to this coming Saturday, February 24th from 1-3. It's made of Misti Alpaca's Chunky weight, so it knits up fast..! It takes 2 balls of the Misti.. There's also the long-sleeved version which takes 3 balls. Class is $30 with a $15 credit towards the yarn you use for the project. Call us to sign up!
