October Happenings
Hello Everyone!

It seems like a long time since an actual newsletter dropped into your inbox...We haven't forgotten about you, life has been good but very busy!
The Farmer has been harvesting crops and The Girl and The Boy are working on special projects.

It's important that we take time to enjoy our family time.

Soper Creek Yarn celebrates 14 years this year! It seems like a short time ago that we began with our small shop in Bowmanville. It's even harder to realize that we have been in our beautiful location here in Orono for 3 years, what a 3 years it has been! The timing of the move proved to be such a good thing, all things considered. 

October has flown by and we are now into the last full week of the month.
Our Last Wednesday of the Month sale happens this week!
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Shop Hours are:

Wednesday: 10:30 am - 4:30 pm
Thursday: 10:30 am - 4:30 pm
Friday: 10:30 am - 4:30 pm
Saturday: 10:30 am - 4:00 pm 
Closed Sunday and Monday
Tuesday is by appointment only or by chance.

You can find updates and fresh news of the shop on our Website and Facebook Page.
About Lessons...
Lessons? Unfortunately the space in the shop is limited and so is our time. At this point we don't have any lessons planned. However we teach everyday, if you purchased the yarn from us we can help you when you get stuck on a pattern.

What's New At The Shop
A small box arrived earlier this week. New colours of a favourite yarn!
We love this soft merino pure wool. It ticks off a lot of boxes: Organic, Mulesing free, GOTS Certified.  
Perfect for lightweight garments and baby things, (hand wash only)
The 100 gram skeins have 350 meters, a lot of mileage for just $16 a skein.
Great for colourwork!
Do We Have...
Those things with the holes to measure your needles?
(Needle Gauge)
Yup
Those big safety pins that hold stitches? 
(Stitch Holder?)
Yup
The thing you use for making cables?
(Cable needles?)
Yup!
Those things that could be stitch markers but you can open them up to mark a spot in your project?
(Locking stitch markers?)
Yup!
We have those things and more and we just filled up the display, we are ready for you!
Get Your Socks On!
Saltwater Socks books are back in the shop!
This is the 4th book in the Saltwater series, we have all the others in the store too!
The title may make you think it is all about socks, but there is a lovely collection of winter accessories as well. It also uses a wide range of yarn weights giving you lots of options for projects.
"I will always buy extra yarn.
I will not try to tempt fate."
