It's that time of year to announce the dates for this years shop hop!

So grab a friend or two, and plan to join in all the fun of this years shop hop from October 2nd - 5th and visit seven local mid-Michigan shops! Shops included are: Woven Art, Fun with Sticks & Strings (Lansing), Yarn Garden (Charlotte), Artisan Knitworks (Chelsea, and with a new owner!), Spun (Ann Arbor), Unwind ( Chelsea), and Knotty Fun Yarn (Perry). Each shop will have an exclusive pattern for Shop Hoppers, fun specials, prizes, and goodies! Get your passport stamped at each shop, and if you get to all seven shops you get entered to win the Grand Prize - a $35 gift certificate to each shop! 

Passports are just $10, and you will also receive and exclusive Shop Hop bag to take with you on your roadtrip. Passports include a coupon to each shop good for the month of November 2025. 

Passports will be ready for pick-up soon (bags will be ready for pick-up later), but reserve yours now! There are only a set number of passports and  we sell out every year! You can call the shop to secure your spot 517-372-1000. They will also be available on line very soon.

Our class schedule has been up dated and can be found here:

The inventory  reduction sale is continuing a little longer!  I do need to make room for new yarns which will begin arriving soon.  Along with several wonderful yarns my NORO stock has been discounted (which rarely happens) and today I found out that Tasogare (similar to Silk Garden only in the Dragon Eggs) is being phased out so look for a deeper discount on this one!

Who knows, maybe other yarns will see additional discounts.  Be sure to take a look and see whats available .

I guess that's enough for now.  Remember to make it a great and play with fiber!
