We would like to offer a half day class on
Multi-directional Knitting,
also referred to as Module or Domino knitting.  This technique looks like a series of triangles connected one to the other.  It is most interesting when using a multi-coloured yarn. If you are curious about what it looks like, I do have a couple of books on these techniques in the store. 
The class will run on Saturday June 5th from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
and the fee is $25.00

If you have ever been curious about
Knitting with Linen. 
We are offering a half day class on the merits of using this ancient yarn.  Linen has been used in garments for thousands of years, is extremely durable and a wonderful summer yarn.  We will get you started knitting a summer scarf.  A perfect alternative to wool if you are allergic.  Natural, comfortable and healthy.  Saturday May 8th 10 to 12:30 p.m. and the fee is $25.00

It there is a technique that you would like to explore,
please let us know and if we can fill a class we will run one.

My most recent purchases have been from a company called Namaste Inc.  They are a company out of California which has designed some really funky knitting bags, needle cases, clutches and wallets.  Just in time for Mother's Day.  Come on in and check them out.  I have 4 great colours in stock, lime green, olive, peacock blue and eggplant.  You can check them out on line at www.namasteneedles.com

Thank you to everyone who checked out Bloomers and the Brownhouse Chocolate and Flower Shop on Archibald Street before Easter.   Margaret was thrilled to meet all of you.  Thanks from me for your loyalty, without you, there would be no Threads in Time.  I truly appreciate your business. 

Sincerely,  Lynn
