New Fall patterns from Berroco

New Fall Patterns
We just got 6 new pattern books from Berroco for Fall. I love the Nora Gaughan booklet. There are some really unusual silhouettes. When you take the time to hand knit a sweater, you want something that is different than what you can just pick up at the mall. I have just listed all 6 new pattern books on our website.

It almost makes me wish for cool weather again. Although I am enjoying the summer.

New bag handles

I'm not sure if many of you know, but we do have a section on the website just for bag handles.
I just added the Grayson bag handles to our website. They are the highest quality and will add a professional finish to your hand knit bags. You can sew the leather tabs directly onto the bag or have your shoemaker do it for you.

Updating Shopping Cart

I have been busy revamping our shopping cart. Some of our customers have requested some new features such as being able to register an account - so they don't have to enter their shipping information each time they order. I also plan to start accepting the new PayPal Express. Let me know if there are any features I can add for YOU.

Wedding
On a personal note, we celebrated my sister-in-laws wedding last weekend. It was at Oheka Castle. The weather was absolutely perfect. It was a fairy tale wedding. Stacie was one beautiful bride. And I have to mention how proud I am of my daughter Chelsea.

After months of flower girl boot camp - (We practiced walking down the aisle in movie theaters, on the beach, in synagogue, etc. ) She absolutely nailed it. She walked down a very long aisle (including stairs) all by herself without any hesitation at all and with a huge smile on her face.

Here she is in full flower girl gear.



We had a great time at the reception. The setting was romantic old world. The food was great, the band was so much fun, and we wish Stacie and Jordan a lifetime of happiness.

Chelsea WAS a beautiful flower girl and pulled off her walk "down the aisle" as if she'd been doing it all her life. You didn't say how gorgeous you looked and how handsome Steve looked. You should put a picture of yourselves on your blog!
