Hours: Tuesday-Friday, 10ish-5 & Saturday 10-4; Closed Sunday & Monday
New Hours Until June 1st!
Because the ladies will be running the shop while I'm in Greece, we are shortening the hours until my return. From now until June 1st our hours will be: Tues-Sat, 10-3. Because our teen works at the shop on Wednesday and Thursday, the doors MAY be open until 5:00 pm on those days, but you'd best call first to make sure. UFO Night on Thursdays will run as usual.
Website Ordering Suspended Until June 1st
Because I will be out of the country, ALL WEBSITE ORDERS RECEIVED AFTER APRIL 25 WILL NOT BE SHIPPED UNTIL JUNE 1st. Please bear with us. This is my first long vacation since 1991! I'll be back at the shop on May 27, so all orders will be processed and shipped as quickly as possible after that date.
Follow My Trip...
If you'd like to follow along on my trip, please click on the link to "Elise's Blog" at the left. I'll be posting commentary and photographs during the entire month. Greece, however, has no text messaging yet so all this will have to be done by uploading the photos to my computer and then updating the blog at the various hotel(s) instead of directly from my cell phone as I usually do. It is also unfortunate that I will probably not be able to post to the blog for a week during the trip, but I doubt the yacht has internet capability. (See blog for yacht photo!) I'll update again as soon as possible.

New Bi-Monthly Sock-a-Bration!
We're starting a new sock club! We'll meet every month, but will introduce a new sock every OTHER month. Knit 6 pair in 2008! Make it a resolution!
The Sock-A-Bration Club will meet on the first Saturday afternoon of every month at 2:00 pm. The first sock will be introduced and taught at the February 2nd meeting. You'll have two months to finish the pair but we'll meet again on March 1st to make sure you're are still on track.
You may join the club at any time, but must commit to no fewer than three (3) pair of socks. We'll be using a newly released sock book which will be available at the February meeting and must be purchased through The Busy Needle.
Yes! We'll run the club online! You'll be able to purchase your materials through the online shop and pay either with credit card or through PayPal.
We'll email you each month with any special sock instructions, pattern problems, etc. and we want to see photos of your socks! We'll post them on our website in a new section we're developing specifically for the Sock-A-Bration Club.
So.... Just drop us an email if you're interested and we'll tell you how to proceed!

Welcome to our website! This is a work in progress (WIP) and we all know we have them. As we load more and more shop merchandise on to the site, please be patient and check back often. The shopping cart is fully functional so you can already purchase what you see. Pick it up at the shop and save on the shipping! If you have any suggestions, please send us an email and we'll see how we may accommodate your ideas. In the meantime, kick back with something nice to nibble on and have fun!
