Colleen Davis Is Back On!


I know a lot of people are confused as to what is going on with Colleen Davis' Workshops that were scheduled and then canceled. Let me tell you that there was a little confusion and misunderstandings going on and I am happy to say that all things are sorted out and are back on track. YES.... Colleen Davis will be in our store to teach her four classes, which will begin on Saturday, April 21st (not the 28th as previously stated) and on Saturday, May 19th. All the information about her classes are listed online as well as in our store (http://www.yarnlady.com/colleendavis/freeformworkshops.htm). Sign up today to save your space. These will go fast, so don't delay! Call the store at 949-770-7809 and reserve your seat. You will be glad that you did.

Did You Know About Yarn Lady Specials?


Did you know that Yarn Lady has ongoing specials that are held on the website? If you get the chance to visit the website, please note that we are working hard to get it updated. We are also in the process of re-designing the site to go along with the re-design of our store. Check back often to see all the changes.
The changes so far have been the addition of the "SPECIALS" page. On this page, you will notice all the great deals Yarn Lady has to offer that you can not get in the store. Currently, we are offering Signatur Handknits Kits by Jane Slicer-Smith at prices well below suggested retail. These kits are on a limited supply and once they are done, they are gone for good. Check it out by clicking here (http://www.yarnlady.com/webstore/hotspecials.htm). They are only $300 USD for each kit. You must pay for shipping (even though it is over the $50 policy that we normally have) and there is absolutely no returns accepted. All sales are final. Don't miss out on this special deal. Call Jenny to place your order and she will be happy to assist you with any questions you may have (toll free 1-888-770-7809). Jenny is available Monday through Friday from 10:00am to 2:00pm PST.

Encore Has Arrived

As you may have noticed we have been a little low on certain yarns. As stated in our store, some companies are now shipping three to four weeks out and therefore some of our backorders are taking longer to get in. This is to let you know that the long awaited Encore by Plymouth Yarns has finally arrived. Clayle is busy working to log in all the colors, price them and get them on the shelves for you to finally get your hands on. If you made a special order, please note that these will be pulled first before Clayle puts them on the shelves.
Happy Knitting!

Trendsetter Yarn Tasting and St. Patty's Day Sale


My cousin from Germany has been here so it's been like a vacation for me! Taking her places made ME take time and enjoy the sites and the weather and it was great! A little tiring, but great! We went Whale watching (didn't see any Whales but lots of Dolphins. I remembered how much I love being on the water!
I told my husband that I don't really need to go on another vacation, we have all that I would want right here. Of course that doesn't help him decide what to plan for the 40th wedding anniversary we have coming in a couple of weeks.......


Tomorrow we will have some fun of a different sort:

We're having another one of our famous Yarn Tastings. This time again it will be with Barry Klein of Trendsetter Yarns. In case you haven't been to one or heard of one, a Yarn Tasting is where the supplier brings lots and lots of yarn for us to try. You get to swatch it and knit (or crochet) with it, try out different needle sizes, try out different color combinations and much more! Here's your chance to try the yarns before you buy them. What could be better?
Barry will also bring a pile of new sweaters from his collection and I'm sure he'll have a mini Fashion Show where YOU get to try everything on.
If that wasn't enough, we will also have a 10% off sale on any green yarn in stock! Come in and grab a basket and go for the green! Who knows, there might also be some other green things there.
Hope to see you there!
