Holiday Happenings

There’s a lot going on at the Markethouse right now. Stop in! The Hidden Nest is all decked out for Christmas – I know with the unseasonable weather it’s hard to think about, but it is mid November already! Personally, I’ll keep this weather as long as we can!

There are parades tomorrow and on the 19th! DYNT will be open during both of them. Stop in before, during (is it a while between your family members’ floats?) or after.

DYNT will also be open during Light Up Night! I’m excited about this. The tree at Diamond Park will be decorated w/ purple ribbons in Honor or in Memory of people whose lives have been touched by cancer. Ribbons are $10 each and proceeds go to the American Cancer Society. I personally think cancer is a “four-letter word” and am doing what I can to help this year’s cause…so that means you can purchase your Light Up Night Ribbons at DYNT. Please, pass this along and let everyone know that they can get their ribbons here. Even if they would not normally shop in a yarn shop, let them know they are welcome to stop in. I’d like to sell as many ribbons as possible – it’s a big tree! It’s going to need a lot of ribbons to look festive. And if you haven’t been affected by cancer, you’re lucky.

Also, now’s your chance to stop in and create your wish list. December 15th will be Men’s’ Night. I really should call it Spouse Night or Elves’ Night – ‘cause guys are able to fill in wish lists too, as are kids. It’s really for anyone. I just know that guys are sometimes reluctant to purchase specialty items ‘cause, well, their specialty items – just like I don’t go into a bike shop and Christmas Shop without help. So I thought I’d try something to offer help to all those shoppers who have crafty folk on their lists.
