TinselTown Scarf

This fun yarn is new @ Needle Rock & so easy to quickly knit up into a fabulous accessory scarf for anyone, young or old & probably female. 47 yards goes FAST & we've got an assortment of colors now.

I know we mentioned this project in our last Needle Rocket, but the yarn literally walks out the door, so we wanted our loyal customers to get in on this ultra speedy gift idea.

Holiday Knitting Alert

Tomorrow is September 1st: Official Opening Day for Holiday Knitting!!!!! (also the 4th birthday of Needle Rock, which we will celebrate all day Friday.)

Projects finished!!

Good job on the crocheted flower mobile, Lynette. Very creative use of chopsticks too!

& we love Peggy Sue's new sweater jacket that is NOT two-toned, (my camera-phone is not too zippy) - it is, in fact, a gorgeous deep olive green & looks great on PSR
