The Dog Days of Summer are Upon Us

However, we are staying cool, calm and collected as we look forward to the fall seson and some of the yarns that we know are comng - some, in fact, are here already.  Come on by and check them out, along with all the new magazines and books that have started to come in for fall.  While you're here,   be sure to also check out our sale table - it's grown much smaller but it's stil 40% off and the cotton colors are perfect for late summer knitting. Talking "Dog Days", please be sure to keep an eye out for our August Windows.  We are featuring our favorite Knitty City pets.  If you have an interesting or fun picture of your best animal friend, please send it to pearl@knittycity.com.  You just might see your favorite animal  pal in our front window, or up on our Facebook Page, or, at the very least, right here on our blog!

What if Santa was a Knitter?

Just imagine the yarn his bag would be filled with!  Well, that's kind of like how we feel here at Knitty City.  The yarn won't stop coming.  Presently we're getting a lot of restocks on existing things so that means that our shelves are filled with even more goodies from the likes of Berroco, Cascade, Classic Elite,  Madeline Tosh, Malabrigo, Sweet Georgia, Tahki Stacy Charles, Trendsetter and that's only naming a few  In addition, we have the most beautiful cashmere from Jade Sapphire, Art Yarns (look for beads and lovely glitter).  (Click on Title to see more.....)

Whew!  We're exhausted, but excited.  The NYC Yarn Crawl Weekend is over and it was a good one!  (Congratulations to this year's winner of the Raffle Basket:  Alexis Dustinoff.   We saw lots of friends and lots of new faces, as well.  We're thrilled but, frankly, a little tired - yet happy.  Why?  Well, it's Fall in New York, and New York is particularly special in the Fall.  The parks are filled, the weather is downright balmy and people's thoughts turn to making warm and cozy things for the upcoming holidays.
