SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!
Guest: Tina Newton of Blue Moon Fiber Arts helps us announce that WEBS will be the exclusive retailer of Blue Moon Fiber Arts (including the favorite Socks That Rock) yarn at Stitches East in Hartford! This will be the first time Blue Moon Fiber Arts is at a Stitches East in several years. There will be a new yarn for BMFA called Devine (100% merino!).
There will also be patterns, the Grinchy Sock kit, Funky Sock Monkey Kits, the sportweight Blue Faced Leicester, Silkie Socks That Rock, shawl kits. After Stitches East, if there is yarn left, it will be available in the store.
