MARCH 2023
We are so glad to be open again after closing for a few weeks to upgrade to a new computer software system. The shop is not the same without our wonderful customers who support us in so many ways. Thank you for your kind words of support, baked goodies and hugs to welcome us back. 
Our Second Annual Mardi Gras Party was a blast! Here are a few pictures from the festivities. A special thank you to Debbie Bolotte who sent us a huge King Cake from Louisiana.
So, what's new at STGN???
New colors of Bobbiny for Spring!

Be sure and check out the class schedule for March. There is another Bobbiny Bowl class being offered. 

New Notion!

We have Twice Sheared Sheep Row Counters in the shop! We have discovered that these are especially helpful for circular knitting.

Here is a video explaining how to use these cute row counters. Row Counters


New this & that

Jan wove this beautiful fabric and then created this fabulous backpack.


Below, you see Sigrid and Carla are showing off their swatches they made during the Grand Teton hat class with Charles Gandy last week.

Btw...we are not having a hat class for the month of March. We just have too many other things going on!
