We've been busy with all our 10th anniversary celebrations (read about our big retreat further down in the blog) and now we're heading into a couple of months of nonstop activity.<br />
Coming up soon is the <a href="http://www.vogueknittinglive.com/" target="_blank">Vogue Knitting Live</a> conference, March 14-16 at Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue. Stop by for classes, demos, fashion shows and lots more. Our booth will be full of fun stuff, including the debut of our custom Madelinetosh colorway, Greenwood.<br />
After that, we'll be busy preparing for our annual sale, which runs April 24-27. As usual, all the yarn in the store will be 20% off, and we'll have a huge selection of clearance yarn at 40% off.<br />
May kicks off with the Phinney-Greenwood Art Walk on 9 and 10. We'll be hosting an artist's work, as will dozens of other businesses in the area. There also will be live entertainment and wine tastings up and down the street.<br />
The busy season winds up May 15-18 with the four-day <a href="http://www.lystour.com/" target="_blank">LYS (local yarn store) Tour</a>. This year, 25 stores from Kent up to the Canadian border will be participating. There will be free patterns and prize drawings at each store, as well as bigger prizes each day of the tour. This event just gets bigger every year, drawing hundreds of local knitters as well as visitors from around the country.Fiber Galleryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13961110695802739030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358125479338929490.post-67074901466710954192014-02-21T12:01:00.000-08:002014-02-22T10:27:13.554-08:00Big Retreat Announcement!We're happy to announce that as part of our 10th anniversary celebration, The Fiber Gallery is hosting its first retreat!<br />

This time, the tea leaves are predicting a knitalong of this gorgeous top-down sweater.<br />
Melissa LaBarre is the designer of this cardigan, which is available in both adult and children's sizes. It is knit in one piece, mostly in stockinette stitch. The yoke has a smocked effect, and the open front flatters all figure types. It was designed to show off the hand-dyed colors of Madelinetosh yarn, but it can be knit in any DK-weight material.<br />
As usual, the knitalong is free with pattern purchase, and we'll be there along the way to help you. The Tea Leaves Sweater kicks off January 26 from 3 to 5.

If you've always wanted to crochet but haven't known where to start, our winter crochetalong is just the thing for you.<br />
The Tiramisu baby blanket is a free, simple beginner pattern with an elegant ribbon edging. It's made out of organic, soft, washable Blue Sky Organic Cotton. Best of all, we'll teach you how to crochet it for free!<br />
Just join us on January 26 from 12:30 to 2:30 for our Tiramisu kickoff and purchase the materials for the project. We'll show you the simple single-crochet stitch that's all you need for the bulk of the project. Then join us again toward the end of the project and we'll show you how to edge the blanket.<br />
This also a terrific project for those who already know how to crochet and want to practice their skills. And P.S., if there are no babies in your life, it makes a lovely lap blanket for chilling out at home.Fiber Galleryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13961110695802739030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358125479338929490.post-58643314378233526392013-12-26T11:34:00.000-08:002013-12-26T11:34:00.608-08:00Winter 2014 NewsletterNow that the hubbub of the holidays is dying down please take a look at <a href="http://gallery.mailchimp.com/59eae6a15892afef553c475d8/files/winter_newsletter_2014.pdf" target="_blank">our most recent newsletter</a>.
