Fear Camp, Saturday, October 29, 2011

October 25, 2011
Fear--it's nothing to be afraid of--especially when it comes to your knit and crochet projects. 

This Saturday, October 29, 2011, you can face down that unfinished project that is haunting you.  Join us for Fear Camp from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm.  You can tell your story about why this project became an object of fear.  (Don't worry.  There are no fact checkers.  Embellished stories are positively encouraged.)  You'll received Sheep's Clothing professional help to get past any technical difficulties with your project.  You'll receive encouragement from your fellow campers.  You'll enjoy a great lunch at Pikk's Tavern.  And you'll leave with a gift certificate that can be cashed in when you complete your project. 

Camp cost:  $45.  Register by calling 219-462-1700. 

Kate Collins Book Signing November 3, 2011

October 17, 2011
The author of the Flower Shop Mystery Series will be at Sheep’s Clothing on Thursday, November 3, from 5 to 8 pm.

 

Kate’s heroine, Abby Knight, owns a flower shop in downtown New Chapel, Indiana—a place surprisingly like Valparaiso.  She gets tangled up in murder mysteries as fast as we can get inspired by a new ball of yarn.  Her drive to find the guilty and make sure that justice is served takes her all over Northwest Indiana. 

 

Copies of Kate’s brand spanking new book, To Catch a Leaf, will be on hand.  If you would like to reserve a copy for Kate to sign that evening, please call and let us know at 219-462-1700. 



All Days Mittens, Saturday, October 15, 2011

October 12, 2011


Join us this Saturday from 9 am to 4 pm and learn the joyful art of mitten crafting.  Your class mitten will be done in bulky yarn.  Your class pattern is multi-size and multi-gauge so in future that you will be able to knit mittens for anyone, child or adult, with any thickness of yarn.  With a little practice, you will never be more than a few hours away from a cozy pair of mittens. 




Welted Fingerless Gloves, Saturday, September 24

September 20, 2011


Our newest version of the Churchmouse Welted Fingerless Gloves is done in Ritratto by S. Charles and Kid Silk Haze by Rowan.  They are perfect to wear at this time of year when the mornings and evenings are chill.  Great to wear as an extra layer over gloves as the weather gets colder. 

Join us this Saturday for All Day Fingerless Gloves class from 9 am to 4 pm.  You'll soon have your own pair or be done with your first holiday gift. 

Call us at 219-462-1700 to register.
