First and foremost, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Once the two-day marathon stay-up-until-2am-knitting-a-pair-of-socks-for-a-friend (she too, got herself in a little hot water) and rushing my own last minute knits to the post office for an overnighter was over and done with, my mind was clear to start a fun Frankensock Swap Club I was invited to join!
I love to knit socks, don't knit them as often as I would like to, and love all the fun notions we use. One of my favorites is the darning egg! I could find myself collecting these wonderful, beautiful wooden eggs.
Not to mention all the wonderful sock yarns like American B.R.A.N.D., CoBaSi, Trekking & Zauberball, just to name a few, as well as the many sock books/patterns. Oh my, there are some wonderful designers out there!
SO, that being said, guess what we are planning at Makers' Mercantile?! A Sock Club!! Yep, that's right!! A quarterly, one of a kind sock yarn, pattern and a few goodies, along with a 3 hour block of instruction. The fun will begin the 3rd week in January of 2014! Get those Addi Sock Rockets ready!
Oh the fun we will have!
More details to come! To get news, costs, and information for our sock club, get your name on our sock club email list. Contact us via email, customerservice@makersmercantile.com, call the shop, or stop by!
