Christmas is delightful ... especially at On The Lamb!

ooooohhhhhh, the weather outside is frightful...

No, it's not. Not really! But it definitely is winter and it's time for snuggling up in front of the gas fireplace, or the micro heater or the floor vent and pull out a warm, rewarding project that will provide someone with years of comfort and smiles. OR, now here's a thought, make something for yourself!

We have lots of 'one skein' wonder ideas if you need to pull off a quickie project (how about Felted Bowls?) a terrific scarf or those cute little 'gauntlets' (fingerless gloves.) Don't forget our Artisan teas - such a wonderful addition to a stocking - and we have kits made up with delicate tea cup infusers and packages of tea for your ease of gifting. And how about a Sock Kit????? Socks are such a hot item right now ... jump on the bandwagon. Don't know how? Let's talk in the new year and we'll get you 'learned'!

I'm on the hunt for a perfect doggie coat for Purl - the last one i made for her was a little small this year (hmmmmmmm, there is a reason Pugs are one vowel away from pig!) So if anyone has a pattern for the perfect jacket for pug with no neck...

Super Duper news for you! A pre-Christmas sale begins Wednesday December 17th and runs until the 23rd. 20% off store wide - does not apply to special orders (that means stuff i have to order in for you, which i will do happily, but it's not on sale.)

Please check the website for updates to class schedule - it's by no means exhaustive - we would be happy to accommodate your times and needs.

okay - gotta go 'cause i'm gonna get this little jacket knit up for a family 'do' on Saturday. Think i can do it? i may be knitting during the two hour drive to the party ... but it won't be the first time.

Just a note - we are closed December 24 - 29th and Jan 1 & 2.

Merry, merry, merry Christmas!
