Hello knitters and crocheters!  And Happy New Year!

We’ve got some very big news to share.  In February we are moving down Main Street to Bender Square!
Bender Square


Just 2 blocks south of our current location, and on the other side of the street, our new address will be 209 South Main.  The space is currently home to Z’ Upscale Retail Consignment Boutique, between Lilly’s and The Butler’s Pantry.  And are you ready for the best part?  There is a parking lot directly across the street!

We are so excited about this move.  During February our new home will be under construction and getting fresh new paint and carpet.  We hope to move in, the last weekend in February.  We will keep you updated!!

A lot of gift certificates were purchased during the holiday season.  We hope you were a lucky recipient!  If not… there is always Valentine’s Day!  We continue to get shipments of new yarns and we are restocking some of your favorites.  We just received 14 different colors of Tundra and Tundra Glitz!

Keep your knitting resolutions and come in and knit with us.  New classes will be posted soon!

Holiday Gift Ideas

Monday, December 12th, 2011

Season’s greetings knitters and crocheters! 

Today is the last day of our 12 Days of Christmas Sale.  We have had a lot of fun with it and hope it has offered you a chance to make some of your holiday gifts at a discount.  Today we have Cascade 220 Wool, Cascade 220 Superwash, Cascade Eco Wool, Berroco Vintage, Berroco Vintage Chunky, and Plymouth Encore all at 20% off.  What a great opportunity to get all your supplies for a January afghan project!

We have come up with two great ways to make sure you can get yarn and notions for Christmas.  This Friday, December 16, we’ll celebrate Men’s Night Out.  From 4 pm to 8 pm we’ll assist your male loved ones with gift selection and gift packaging.  Of course we’ll help them anytime they come in, but we have set aside this night especially for them.

A gift certificate from Village Yarn Shop is always a nice holiday gift.  Did you know we accept credit card orders over the phone for gift certificates and mail them to the buyer or recipient?  So, if Aunt Pearl from out of state asks you what you want for the holiday, tell her to call Village Yarn Shop at 317.873.0004 with a valid credit card number and a mailing address and we will take care of her.  Really, what could be easier and more perfect?

We have special weekend shopping hours to meet your yarn emergencies and holiday shopping needs.  Or maybe you need time and privacy to work on a special knitted gift.  This weekend we are open 10 am to 8 pm on Friday and Saturday, and noon to 5 pm on Sunday.

We will be closed Saturday, December 24 so the staff can begin celebrating the holidays with their families.  We will close again Thursday, December 29 through the 31st to perform inventory.

Feeling overwhelmed by the hectic holiday season?  Grab a latte and come in to sit and knit.  Yarn is so much cheaper than therapy.
