What a great turn-out we had for the 3rd annual YarnOver this past Saturday!  It was food, fun, and fiber -overload!!

Visit our photo gallery page to see pictures from the event.

Many of our knitters participated in our first fingerless mitten swap.  They knitted a pair of fingerless mitts, wrapped them up and put them under our tree, then we drew numbers corresponding to each package and everyone went home with a new pair of lovely mitts!

There were fingerless mittens in every color, pattern, shape, and size you could imagine.  And they were all just beautiful.  You can see lots of photos in the gallery, but here’s a sampling:

Don’t we have some wonderfully talented knitters?

We also have some very talented chefs, we discovered.  The food everyone brought to share was delicious!  It sparked the idea of a knit shop cookbook.  If you’d like to submit a recipe of yours for the book, please e-mail it to Sharon at info@neighborhoodknitshop.com.  Be looking for more details about the cookbook (and how you can get a copy!) in the coming months.

A reminder — Spa night is next Saturday, 12/20!  Please call the shop if you’d like to attend.
