How is it possible that my DH is turning 60 in a few more days? Neither one of us can believe it, but there it is. He still makes my heart go bump- and he cleans up pretty good, right?

This is too big a birthday to go unnoticed so we have decided to celebrate with all our friends by having the biggest sale ever in the history Northampton  Wools.

On Saturday, June 19th from 10am until 5pm we will mark specific yarns down by 60%. These special yarns will be in baskets on the floor and table in the store. These are not our regular sale baskets. These are yarns that we have decided to pull from the shelves and support with inventory from the cellar.

Mark your calendar and pull out those patterns you have been saving for just the right yarn. Bring them in on Saturday- ONE DAY ONLY- and get 60% off select yarns in baskets.

Because of the huge discounts on these yarns all sales are final and there are no returns allowed.

Plan on being at Northampton Wools early to get the best selection.

Happy Shopping,

Linda

Wedding Dress Redux

              Proud Mom                                                                                  Jeff and Pam Daniels

It is that wedding time of year and this year became special to us as we celebrated the marriage of our son Jeff to Pamela Wilson. We had two long weeks of partying since Pam is a west coast girl. We traveled to Ca to witness their marriage on May 29th. Then everyone traveled back here to celebrate in our back yard with all the family and friends on the east coast.

It was reason enough to bring the wedding dress that Jill Montgomery and I hand knit 8 years ago, out of storage. I have had it on display in the window of the shop for the past three weeks and it is satisfying to see that it is still able to attract the attention that it deserves.            wedding                                                                  And it is really holding up well. The only bride to ever wear it was my sister Donna, who got married in it 4 years ago. The directions for making the dress and a picture of Donna in the dress has been published in “Planet Wedding” which came out this spring. It is available from Amazon and is a collection of wedding trivia from around the world.
