December 2012 Countrywool News December Shop Hours various Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays check the website! www.countrywool.com OR call for an anytime appointment (518)828-4554 (leave a voice mail and I'll get back to you!) ![]() The solstice is on the horizon Long nights, holiday lights and peaceful times are around the corner. And so is the COLD WEATHER! Knitting needles and yarn never felt a more immediate need. I am finding that chilly mornings call for a few layers to wear IN the house as I start my day, and evenings sitting while knitting do the same. Having a shawl or moon shaped scarf around certainly does the trick. Scarves and shawls are such EASY KNITS...no gauges to consider! ![]() Out of knitting time? Need mittens for someone on your list? We have 3 sets in stock:
Don't forget our BUNNY BALM, SUPER BUNNY BALM, BUNNY LIPS and HANDMADE SOAP products as you look for stocking stuffers. Good for you ingredients in each and made here at Countrywool! The BUNNY BALMS are meant to be used to coat your dry hands before you knit so yarns don't snag (all natural ingredients will wash out in the final wet-blocking process), but runners are finding them FABULOUS for softening the callouses they get on their feet. ![]() Can't decide on a present for a knitter in your life? Want a great universal gift, or one for yourself? How about a COUNTRYWOOL GIFT CERTIFICATE?

Have you checked out our page on ![]() Don't forget...that is where you will hear of sales FIRST and get links to free patterns, so LIKE IT! In December we'll have two classes on Sunday, December 9, ...the last Percentage Sweater clinic for the year AND ...Felted Footies, just in time for the coldest part of the year. Then we'll take a break for the holidays. But wait...there will be a NEW YEARS DAY SALE to ring in 2013! AND...watch this space for NEW CLASSES next year, which will include knitting spinning quilting and soap making! Claudia |
