If you are coming to TNNA in Columbus, visit me in booths 163, 262 and 262A on June 11, 12 and 13. I will be located at the end of rows 1 and 2 on the far left side of the convention floor. In Columbus I will have the following specials: - 10% off on any Clover order placed at the show. This includes the new elastic yarn thread. The thread should be available after the show is over. Make sure you stop by the booth, place your Clover order and save 10%. - Knit Klips are back. Susan Bates has reintroduced packs of 5 and 10 Knit Klips. They are taking over the manufacture and distribution. The two size packages are available now. Susan Bates has also introduced a Heart Shaped Yarn & Thread Cutter Pendant; a Heart Shaped Tape Measure, Heart Shaped Stitch Markers in three sizes as well as French Knitters [small and medium sizes] in the Crystallite line. - The small Knitter Blocks are also back.

She will be in the booth, along with samples of the new patterns, on Sunday and maybe Monday, check for times. - I am always adding new items. So stop and look for the NEW signs. NOTE: Two of the designers Theresa Gaffey and Mary Lou Egan work closely with their LYS in Minnesota to develop patterns that work for the yarns that the LYS carries. They will develop patterns for your shop if you need help moving a particular yarn. They'd be glad to discuss it with you. There is no extra charge. Contact them. They have a cooperative approach to helping shops sell yarn. WEB SITE: The Yarn Craft web site [yarncraftsupplies.com] has been operating since January.
