The Altered Stitch

Spreading joy with cotton love So soft and vibrant, we love Sherri's gorgeous #sistercrop. The pattern (by @northsideknitco) calls for heavy worsted/aran but it also looks great in our Dk-weight Sonoran Yarn from @marygavanyarns!!! Yarn available in-store and online (link in bio)... #local#localyarnstore#shopsmall#shoplocal#lys#thealteredstitch#knit#knitting#knitstagram#knittersofinstagram#valleyvillage#cotton#veganyarn#cottonyarn#plantbased#yarnlove#yarnlover#crochetersofinstagram#yarnstagram

We're open on Sundays now, yay!! Come in and see us! And what do you think of the Tegna that @1mesherri1 is doing in Malabrigo Supernova - so much happy in a yarn!!!

Happy Wednesday! It's the perfect day for you to pop in and check out the new @marygavanyarns in the shop!! We've restocked on some of our beloved Desert (bamboo/cotton) in some limited edition colors and other old favorites. Other new goodies are scattered around the shop (and online shoppe too, link in bio above). Come in and get some ideas for your fall projects! Weds. 2-7, Fri. and Sat. 12-5

**Happy (shop's open) Wednesday!!** @1mesherri1 got to have a bit of an adventure over the weekend and almost got carried away with the desire to contribute to this little seaside shrine... but cooler heads (and the need to never not knit) prevailed! Still working away on this scarf in our custom color Planet Nanus, it really is perfect for autumn and you should get some too! Hoping all are doing well and that we will see you in the shop soon, and if you have any project ideas or anything you need help with, don't forget to just DM us here, email or call the shop and we would love to get you started on your fall projects!!

Happy LYS Day (Weekend)!! As we are sure many of you know, we would normally have made quite a bit more of a splash for LYS Day, but... not so much this year -- looking forward to making up for it next year though! However, we are having a little flash sale for the weekend, 10% off all of our yarn in the shop (consignment exempted)! If you shop online, enter code LYS10, which will be valid until 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, 9/13. **And don't forget, the shop is open today (Saturday, 9/12) from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m. if you want to go touch some goodies in person!!** Meanwhile, we've been trying to come up with some ideas and suggestions for your autumn stitching -- like this super cute top that uses our beloved Mary Gavan Sonoran 100% cotton yarn, check out what we have in stock in the shop or online (link in bio above)!

**New shop hours starting today -- Weds. 2-7, Fri. and Sat. 12-5** @1mesherri1 got to take a little trip for work yesterday, and was able to slip in a little knitting and dolphin watching! Back to working on her long overdue Shine wrap in our custom color Planet Nanus! Great for autumn projects, which are a lot easier to think about this week than they were last week during the heat wave!
