ERROR IN LAST BLOG

Hi everyone - you know when you are trying to be a good employee and help out the boss and, well, KNIT HAPPENS? Well, my list of yarns on sale included a yarn that is NOT on sale and I was a bit unclear about the Universal yarn that IS on sale. So to be clear, ONLY the Universal LP Worsted and Chunky in the back of the store are on sale. Non of the Universal yarns in the front of the store are on sale. Also, Tahki Tweedy Alpaca is not on sale. Sorry for any inconvenience! There are still plenty of yarns on sale at the back of the store, so please come in before the 50% off sale ends on Saturday and, if it makes you feel better, you can give me a hard time!
