I'm having a hard time posting to my blog. So I appologize for typos, spelling errors and the general lack of formating to this post...
DYNT will be closed this Saturday, July 23rd thru Saturday July 30th. We will reopen, Wednesday, August 3rd @ 10am. It's time for vacation! (Actually we're going to WI for NAUCC - North American Unicyle Competion and Convention.)
I just got in some O-wool Balance! I'm excited about this yarn. It's 50% organic cotton & 50% organic wool and US made! In my opinion the 50/50 makes it the perfect 3-season yarn for around here. I know it's hard to think about cool nights right now, but they are coming.
I realize that I'm bad about (not)posting photos. I need to get better at that. I promise that after vacation, I'm going to try much harder at getting photos posted in the blog and on FB.
Don't forget that there is a knitting class scheduled to start in early August. It's for the "craft-impaired" or lefties. Please note, I don't think lefties are "craft-impared", I'm just right-handed and therefore will be slow at teaching the lefties, just as I'm planning on going slow for the students that feel like they don't know the first thing about crafts. I'm hoping that the slower spead of learning will help me teach lefties while I'm still working as a right handed knitter. But rest assured, I'll be teaching "Left-handed knitting" as this seems to be what I learned?! I know that sounds wierd...but it will all make sense - I hope. I'm pretty excited about this class and hope others are too. Please check FB or e-mail me for more information or to sign up.

July is here !
Another month's gone by! Wow!
I wanted to thank all of my customers, June 2011 was the best month at the shop so far! Thanks for helping me reach my goals. Slowly DYNT will grow, and that will enable me to offer more business hours, classes and inventory!
I'm not quite yet at the point of being able to be open Tuesday - Saturday. But I was wondering what times are best for you? Would you rather DYNT be open early in the day, or later into the evening? Is there an day or evening that works better for you for classes and events?
It's July - and this month's sale is on Alpaca, Angora and Mohair. Stock up on these specialty yarns at 15% off. Alpaca is super soft, and because the fleece is different from wool, it's considered hypo-allergenic. That makes it a great, super soft and warm alternative for those who feel wool to be too itchy. Angora can come from an Angora goat or a bunny. Both are on sale. And the Angora Bunny sock yarn is locally produced! What a great way to splurge on the next pair of hand-knitted socks. Mohair has an airy, fuzzy quality about it, it's great for wraps and "fancy" articles that need some sort of soft elegance.
Stop in and say hi! Don't let the summer heat keep you away, Thursdays are Brown Bag Thursdays - bring your lunch and your projects and enjoy your meal w/ like minded fiber-artists.
