There is No Place Like Home -- Dorothy

And home is still at 29 Public Square, Elizabethtown, Ky 42701

It was enticing, the beautiful space, with it's brick wall, columns and huge display windows but it seems it was only OZ and yes, a Wizard blowing smoke and whistles.  It was not real and not meant to be. 

And so, the big move did not happen and will not happen but the result is that I've had an opportunity to rearrange the whole shop, clear out the unneeded stuff and the shop SEEMS bigger!  The back room is now fully devoted to displaying all the beautiful new yarns and accessories that have come in.  More are due in today.  It feels all fresh and new and I hope you will all love it as much as I am.  I will be working on it more today but the shop is OPEN again....and 

The OPEN House is ON for Friday and Saturday...

Come out and see!  I have received some fabulous Door Prizes and giveaways from Classic Elite and Cascade.  Everyone who comes in will get a ticket for the big drawing tomorrow afternoon.  And every purchase get's you another ticket into the pot...so you have two chances to win some really special prizes and there will be freebies for the early birds while they last!

The Shop is Moving to a New and Spacious Location

It was just 7 short months ago that I had the guts to open a small Wool and Yarn shop in Old Town Elizabethtown, KY.  I'd always dreamed of having my own business and i knew that it would be 'shop'. A small place where people would gather to create.  And so it is!

If you've been to the shop, you know that it is 'cozy'....it is quite small.  I've loved this shop and I am so proud of it.  It has been such fun to come here every day and just play/work at what I love.  It has been something that I created from the stuff of my dreams and it will be hard to leave its safe walls.  In these short months, I have met the most wonderful people, spinners, knitters, crocheters and even a tatter or two.  So many have told me how happy they are to have found the tiny shop and that they love coming here.  And I have loved being found.  It is so gratifying to see the looks on the faces when they come in.

But as the shop has gotten more popular, the space seems to have gotten smaller.  The time has come to move to more spacious quarters.  The opportunity was offered and after a long time pondering what it would do to my small dream, I decided to go for it.  Although there were many delays, once the decision was made, the new shop is finally ready and I will begin the move to the new shop tomorrow, November 2 and the shop will be closed.  It will be the first time that I will be closed on a week day. But there was no way to avoid and so it must be. I hope to be open again in the new space on Wednesday. I will be just around the corner at 110 North Main Street. Park in the back as usual and look for the canopy over the door:
