WHAT????

Okay - it has to be said.

Where is the spring?

Having said that ... i assure you we still have lots of wool to make a sweater.

'cause you might need it!

So much to tell you!

We are so excited about our new shop! And we know you are excited too ... 'cause you tell us!

Biggest Challenge? Making my beeaauuutifulllll window look nice every two weeks.

Yup that means i gotta knit (or get some fab friend to knit for me!) wonderful samples for the window!

And we love Brock street; You need to meet our neighbours too!

I gotta tell you that the Blue Heron Book Store has been nominated for most wonderful bookstore in Canada .
Frankie's, the gluten free bakery, has won an award for the most innovative bakery in all of Canada! AND Frank, the baker/co-owner from Frankie's is bringing me pasta today for lunch! Gonna try the wheat-free pasta!

Oh yes, AND (lots of capitals today, huh?) Ginny from Elemi Organics, who offers natural products that are simple, practical and as unique as Nature herself, was a contributor to the Swag Bags (those freebie bags that all the stars get for attending award shows 'cause i guess they can't afford stuff) at the Grammy's this year which is a very big honour.

Yup. Those, ladies and gentlemen, are our neighbours here on Brock Street.

We really gotta step up to the plate and win something!

Anyone want to nominate us?

New and Wonderful!

... and you are all coming to our Yarn Crawl on Saturday April 9th, right?
20% off everything in the store, even the new stock!
I KNOW!

We now carry Brittany needles: The warmth and smoothness of hardwood nurtures sensitive fingers and provides natural strength and consistency for a lasting product. All wood used by Brittany comes from strictly regulated forests or small woodland owners in the United States ensuring proper environmental logging practices and selective cutting for maximum reforestation.












And if you don't want to knit, you can always do this with them!

We are in!

Very exciting last couple of days! But we did manage to move in in 1.5 days!

So many thanks to Donna, Carolynne, Carol, Junne (mumma!), Taryn (darling daughter!), Michelle, Sam, Jennifer, Pat, Jacqueline and Peter (PP).

Could not have been done without you and i thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Now.

The unveiling!

NOT sleeping in wool ...

actually it's recylcled Sari Silk.

funny thing...

It is absolutely ridiculous how much junk there is under my counter that i really, really, really needed.

Until i have to move it.

Now i don't need it.

Really.

A reminder folks - shop is closed on Friday March 11th until Tuesday March 15th when we reopen in our new location.

With less stuff.

Wowzers!

Sooooooooo much to tell!

Okay.

Get ready.

ARE YOU READY?????

WE BOUGHT A BUILDING! 66 & 68 Brock Street West - right in the middle of Uxbridge's Brock Street. Two doors up from the bookstore, next door to the bakery, 3 doors up from Presents. Next door to Woods & Woods.

Lisa, from the Passionate Cook's Essentials and i are partners.

AAAHHHHHHHHH!

Worst kept secret in Uxbridge but the best thing to happen to us.

Look for us to open shop on Tuesday March 15th. This means our shop will be CLOSED Friday March 11 (to pack), Saturday March 12 (to move) and Sunday March 13 & March 14 to set up!

It's exciting and fun.

Here's a metaphor for you: did you ever see the Christmas movie, Elf? You know that scene where Will Farrell is running around and around in the revolving door screaming? Do i have to say anything more??

So come on Friday arch 11 if you want to pack. But if you want to visit the new digs, come on Tuesday March 15h.

Oh, and to ease the pain. 25% off everything in the shop EXCEPT Frill Seeker and Frill Seeker Lace.

That oughtta help.
