New Gund Stuffed Animal Shipment

We just received a new shipment of stuffed animals from Gund. There are a large variety of animals and they come in several sizes. Some of them function as rattles and a few make noises. They are a great companion to a knitted baby garment.

Mongolians Learn to Knit Socks.

Yesterday, five women from Mongolia came to Stitches & Scones to learn how to knit socks. Through an interpreter, Lin spent several hours helping them turn the heel and improve their knitting skills. The daughters were here for heart surgery and were accompanied by their mothers and the interpreter. All of them are knitters, and we predict they will teach others to knit socks back in Ulan Bator, the capital of Mongolia. What a rewarding experience!
