We had a transformation over the weekend. Deer, decorated with blue and silver bells, brought a sleigh full of scarves, to the Village in the window. There is even the proverbial Christmas Train on a track in our window. The interior of the shop has some nice hand made gifts in a special corner for those hard to buy for friends and relatives!
It is really awesome how many people come to a yarn shop to visit the yarn and end up making friends with the humans that are there. We had a lovely lady from out of state come in looking for fellow weavers, we connected and even shared some names of other weavers in the area. We had a mother and daughter come in looking for yarn for gifts for relatives and the daughter bought yarn to knit something for herself.
Christmas is a time of gift giving, and receiving. We try and get the perfect gift for the person on our list and sometimes it is very difficult to do. Some of us have a hard time creating the perfect gift when we really want to do something handmade. If you can't do something hand made this year, go shopping at your local stores. Downtown Rapid City has some really unique shops, including us! And it is so important to shop locally and support your city.
We would like to introduce you to our newest employee! Her name is Madamoiselle and she is working hard at holding up one of our scarves. Be sure to come in and meet her yourself, she is rather shy, but she really works hard.
Have a great week and enjoy our lovely warm weather.
