You may get this newsletter twice if you signed up for several interest areas. This version has a different focus, though.
This newsletter was not really in my plans, but these busy weeks right before the Holiday Season inspired me to give you some important updates, new information and a special invitation. Again, it is all around gift giving and giving you the opportunity for best gift shopping.
Find many gift ideas in our stores (look for the signs "Santa recommended") or in our web site (follow the Poinsettia).

Winter arrived here with full force, low temperatures and a good blizzard. This made us finally feel in the Christmas spirit, just see this photo from our backyard a week ago.
Again: Enjoy the Holiday Season, your family, friends and traditions.
Cheers! Inge, Jurgen and staff

gift certificates
To the left you see our elves' workshop for wrapping Gift Certificates. Yes, you read right: you may order or buy gift certificates for knitting or needlework kits, yarn and accessories or any other products from our stores - and we wrap them nicely! Gift certificates are issued in any amount, and they never expire!

Plus, you may request complimentary Gift Wrapping of your gift items. Be assured, our girls here know how to do it right.
Of course, we ship gifts and gift certificates to any place in the world.
If you cannot come to our store, contact us here !
Zitron Pullover
We received more of the beautiful brown and red hues of Zitron's Trekking Magic Color Pullovers. The blue version is still backordered.

The kit of eight 100 g balls is only Cdn $131 and saves you $20 - gorgeous colours and super yarn quality! The kit is good for sizes up to men's size. The yarn is used double and makes for easy knitting!

Find more information in our yarn page and make this kit a perfect gift for a knitter (or for yourself)!
Silke Alpaca
An exciting new yarn which we just got in is Silke Alpaca from Garnstudio.
Silke Alpaca is a blend of 20% Silk and 80% Baby Alpaca. The colours are beautiful. Silke Alpaca knits up beautifully to a soft sheen and a wonderful "hand".

This is only one of several new yarns we just got in and we already ordered the new Spring Yarns!
The best way to stay informed about what's new and exciting is to check our Yarn Blog often, and to check our Yarn Page, where we added Shade Cards to most of our listed yarns.
