We will also be having a 5% discount on all non-sale yarns in the store.

This event is free of charge and we look forward to seeing you there!

The Twisted Sisters Trunk Show
Knit Happens recently hosted a trunk show by Twisted Sisters Knitting of California.
Anna and Terri (the founders of the company) brought in amazing array of yarns and samples. If you are unfamiliar with their handpainted luxury yarns and accompanying patterns, you can get a small taste of what they offer at their website (above).
The night before the show staff were given a "sneak peak" at all the goodies and we were able to try on various garments. This picture shows Terri helping Cathy, one of our staff members, select a garment for the next day.Terri and Anna were available throughout the show on Saturday to offer customers assistance with patterns and yarn selection.
Anna is shown in this picture wearing one of their fabuous designs.Knit Happens is the exclusive retailer in Arizona of the Twisted Sister line.
We have a great selection of kits, patterns and the entire yarn collection available in the store now.
Thanks so much to Twisted Sister for making this trunk show a wonderful success!
