Well fiber friends as I promised I am posting photos of the shop I just visited in Pacific Grove CA. An amazing spacious, full of natural light shop.

The sole owner, Ann is also a pattern designer and a great lady to chat with very personable 
All the staff is friendly and very helpful.
Heather, who was manning the shop when I was there, was so very helpful and fun to have a conversation with. While all the time winding yarn printing patterns, greeting  customers very good at multi tasking making purchasing a pleasure.

I received a lot of help with pattern and yarn selection as well as In formation on private help and ongoing classes.
There was a lovely group of ladies sitting around knitting at the table that was in front of a great window with lots of natural light, making it easy to see. Theses ladies allowed me to take a photograph them if I promised to only post their good side, 


I was very impressed with a young lady knitting with her mom, she was only 9 years of age and had been knitting for about 3 years she fit right in and her knitting was beautiful. Nice even stitches and tension, lovely to see.

The shop has an amazing selection and a variety of yarns and color choices. Patterns and kits, lots of gift items, including knitting/ project bags for purchase as a gift for the special knitter friend or family member in your life. Gift certificates are available, they also have an online shop if Pacific Grove is too far to travel.

All and all a wonderful brick and mortar shop worth the visit and the town of Pacific Grove has lots of antique shops and quaint restaurants to have breakfast, lunch or dinner so a great way to spend the day knitting and lunch or dinner.    


Well,I guess that’s it for now
Remember,knitting and crocheting is good for mind,body and soul

  Hi ho fiber friends it’s Been 7 months and 4 days since my last post I have been relatively busy and no excuses . I last posted Feb, in March I went to Vermont for 7 days and upon my return we were amidst a pandemic . I have been trying to play catch-up ever since. I, like most of the rest of the United States could hardly believe what was going on let alone try and adjust our lives to such a drastic change that seemed to happen over night. Even though forced to stay home a lot more than normal I never seemed to have the time to write let alone gather any thoughts that would make sense to any one other than myself. My editor / daughter probably would have thrown I the towel if I had written all the things running through my head at the time.                So now here it is, the beginning of September and I am able write with a little clearer mind and possible light at the end of the tunnel . All though many events this year in Califor...
