And as well, be sure to scroll down to the end of this email to see an update as to what’s new in the shop.
ATTENTION NORO FANS!!
We have a very special opportunity to share with all you NORO fans out there! But not just NORO fans only, we want to share this will ALL of you – a NEW DropShip KIT offering!!
We know how hard it is to pick out colours online, especially a multi-coloured project. Well, today we have a real treat for you…pre-selected, ‘READY MADE KITS’!
These kits are the result of carefully & skillfully chosen yarns, textures, colours and patterns that take the guess-work out of putting a project together.
Today’s NORO KIT theme is…Blankets & Throws.
Yes, we know it is not currently blanket weather, BUT…if we cast on now, our blankets will be ready for when we need them this Fall. Ooooor…we can purchase a kit(s) now [while they are available!] and ‘stash it’ until Fall when the weather starts to change and we want to nestle into a hearty knitting project.
Be sure to read on to the end of this email for a special ‘sampler pack’ kit, just for fun!
TO ORDER: All of the Kits listed in today’s email are part of the DropShip program, meaning that they are not in stock at the store, but we can order them for you with no minimums (or maximums) and free curbside pickup. To place your order, please give us a call at 519-474-0403 with your payment information, or email us with your kit selection, colour choice, size (if applicable) and your phone number so that we can call you to finalize your purchase.
** Please note: These kits come to us pre-selected and so we do not have the ability to switch out colours or yarns; they come AS SHOWN. **

The cardigan is worked seamless, from the top-down. The pretty lace panels are worked by picking up stitches from the front edges. Because it is a top down knit, the cardigan can easily be lengthened or shortened.

Ultra Pima Fine, like its big sister Ultra Pima, is much softer than other cotton yarns and does not feel stiff. The lightweight cotton yarn makes every piece you make breathable and wearable in even the hottest of months as it wicks away moisture and does not retain heat.
** Ultra Pima Fine is a KNITTED KNOCKERS APPROVED YARN! **
