Judith Durant & Potential disaster


As you are aware, Ewe'll Love It! was pretty decimated from a water disaster. In our attempts to keep as close to normal as possible, we charged ahead with the scheduled workshops with Judith Durant and knitting with beads. Moving the last rack out of the way Friday night before


....yes, that is yarn all over the floor!

The the next afternoon: Judith presents an amazing workshop with MANY happy participants!


Just another minor miracle brought to you by the staff at Ewe'll Love It!

Enjoy your Fiber!

flood & cashmere













You know it's a good day when Ellen arrives with a new batch of Reclaimed
Cashmere www.elliesreclaimedcashmere.com/, smelling of lavender. There's everything from aran to lace weight. Come in & enjoy the fresh stock. A wonderful way to begin holiday gifts is with a little bit of eco friendly luxury.

Flood update:
With just a bit of luck, we will loose the plastic barrier by the weekend. Then racks have to be rebuilt and fall orders will be received. I know it's been a sorry 4 weeks, but I truly hope you will come back to the new Ewe'll Love It!

There is rhythm in your knitting needles and in your pattern. Let that be music for your soul.

Flood

Just a quick update:
We are up and running...well limping along.
There's an interesting zip wall in the middle of the store and an industrial whir instead of the usual music.
We're pretty tired, but mostly upbeat.

Eager to see everyone!

Enjoy your DRY fiber.

Drama with yarn
















So this is what the shop looked like Saturday morning. You can't hear the slosh as we wade thru this, nor can you smell the sopping ceiling tiles. But you 'get the picture' so to speak!

Not even the M&Ms were spared.
Oddly, when you come in the door, everything looks normal.
And I'm finding that the more people come in, the more normal I feel. It's just the whirring....instead of the music that gives it away.










Enjoy you DRY fiber.
