A shoutout to our teachers Saturday at Shepherds Market: Jean Gross and Sherry Murtle did a great job. One of the presiding concerns we have in the ongoing direction of the Market is the development of community. Jean and Sherry exemplify the learner-centered, approachable characteristics in teaching that we hope will always help learners build confidence and have fun. Please feel free to comment here and on the Community group page what you want to see going forward.

This yarn looks so yummy 😍

Did you know American cotton is making a comeback as well as American wool? This Celebrate 250 colorways Thank You For Your Service on an Aran weight cotton boucle base, US raised and manufactured, hand dyed. The yarn knits or crochets quickly and has slight elasticity in knitting unlike most cotton because of the boucle structure. Beautiful for afghans, wraps, a cardigan.
