Felted Tweed Has Arrived!

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)

Rowan has created the perfect balance of Merino and alpaca, while colorful flecks add personality.

Tweeds have a long history of keeping people warm and dry. From this long heritage Felted Tweed was born. The yarn is slightly rustic, but has an inherent softness from the Merino and a slightly brushed texture enhanced by the alpaca.

Look at this 'granddad' inspired sweater below; can't you just imagine how comfy it will be to curl up in?

We have so many colors in the shop, it will be hard to choose!

It is great fun and you will leave with two pumpkins, one in a fall fabric (to learn technique) and one using vintage needlepoint, both with real stems.

To participate you will need one piece of needlepoint and sharp fabric scissors. It needs to be at least 12" x 12". It can be framed, a pillow, or chair seat. Details for prepping your piece will be given to you

when you sign up.

This is a great way to give that faded pillow grandma stitched new life!

Transform it into a pumpkin and celebrate her in all your Fall festivities!

If you want to participate in the class,

but do not have a canvas, we will be offering 3 vintage needlepoint canvases for sale.

For fully-vaccinated individuals, we are open with just a few requests:

For non-vaccinated people we have more restrictions as

the State of NJ braces for the Delta strain.

In addition to the requests above, masks must be worn, participation in classes is restricted and we ask that you practice social distancing as recommended by the CDC.

We are making every effort to provide wonderful finishing in a timely manner at a reasonable price. Our finishing process is not what it was in 2019, but what is in this world? Please be patient, clear on what you want and be kind to our staff.

If you stitch in continental your canvas must be blocked. Some canvases we received for finishing are so out of shape, they require blocking twice.

Basketweave if done in hand may need blocking. If you do not bring your work in blocked, depending on the need, we will either take it to Mayflower Cleaners in Princeton, and charge you the cost plus a charge for our staff to take it and pick it up, OR we send it out to a finisher who blocks. The finisher who will block is not guaranteeing any return date. Either way it will cost more in time and money.

Please bring in fabric and accessories you want used for your work. Ornaments require an uncut skein of thread for twisted cord. A two-color cord requires a skein of each color. We have a limited choice of fabric for the back of ornaments, feel free to supply your own or choose from what we have.

Stockings and cuffs need fabric for back and cording. (Cuffs, obviously need more.) If you are choosing a velvet, do not choose upholstery fabric with heavy backing. All stockings need coordinating light-weight fabric for lining.

Pillows require a 1/2 yard extra fabric for cording. All our finishers provide filler.

We have worked actively to help solve the finishing crisis for our customers. We have hired three finishers to finish needlepoint projects exclusively for our customers.

This is in addition to our pillow seamstress.

Please bring in your projects as soon as possible.

Provide fabric, ribbons, and accessories.

Have your piece blocked.

Be clear on your requests.

Be patient!

Please be prepared. Stitch gifts early! If you know you do an ornament for someone year after year, it is time to get started.

If you need help finding an ornament, please send us a theme and we will email you options. Write "Attn Bettie ornament" in subject line. in email write theme: baseball, snowman, candy can, etc.

Email Knitonestitchtoo@gmail.com and we will do our best to find you the perfect canvas.

We appreciate your patience. Please do not ask the store staff to call on any project that was sent out less than 8 weeks ago. Many vendors are taking phone calls twice a week at limited times. They will need to check with their staff

and get back to us.

We are still awaiting some finishing from last January! We are hoping to provide an 8 week turn around for standard pillows, stockings and ornaments; but cannot guarantee dates.

If we become overwhelmed with finishing we may be forced to turn away work for people who were not our customers before April 10, 2021.

Our goal is to provide the best service to our customers.

We were very fortunate that among the scores of canvases we sent, those sent prior to the deadline came back and only 4 sent post deadline, did not arrive for the holidays. This was not the case across the country. Several finishers advised stores, although items were received by the deadline their finishers were waiting for supplies, record number of canvases were received, finishers became ill, or were delayed with children doing virtual schooling; as a result items would not be

coming back before the holidays.

Sadly, there is still a need for these, soft, washable prosthetics. Our supply is dwindling. A hospital has sponsored the cost of the yarn. We just need your time, skill and compassion. We will be happy to send you the yarn and the pattern and you can either mail the knockers back to us if you are not in the area, or drop them off at the shop, once we can open again. They are knit on size 6 double pointed needles. If you know someone who needs one, or two, please contact us.

They come in all cup sizes.

We also are in need of Chemo and Preemie hats.

Deb Moran dropped off 30 Premie hats, how cute are these?
