Stitches and stripes
Colors and lines
Oranges and pinks
the color of time
Strawberry and denim
and purples so bright!
A walk in the forest
Oranges take flight!
Stitches and stripes
pink roses and wine
Colors sing and they dance
with such grace and such rhyme.
Get your Studio Avenue Six self-striping sock yarn

It's time for our Annual Day After Thanksgiving Sale,
except this year we're extending it by a few days!
The actual SALE will begin this Wednesday, November 25th
and will continue through Saturday, November 28th -
a full 4 days of great savings at Woolgirl!
Everything in the shop will be 15% off, and select items
throughout the shop will be up to 25% off- so if it's
been on your wish list, now is the time to make it
more than just a wish! :)
Also in the next couple of days we will be
offering a few fun holiday kits in the shop - there
will be some kits that feature Hello Kitty,
Rudolph, the Peanuts gang, Christmas trees,
Santa, and a few others that will remain a surprise!
Each kit will include a sock knitting accessory bag,
a skein of coordinating yarn (that we've chosen to
match the fabric), and a few fun extras that
match the themes. Kits will be posted at various
times from Wednesday through Saturday of this week.
Each kit will:
1) Be unique
2) Include surprise extras
3) Include a photo of the yarn and the bag
4) Be holiday themed
5) Ship on December 6th
And this Sunday the super fun Studio Avenue Six
Self-striping sock yarn is back in the shop!
Every single skein is unique, so if you see
a colorway you love, you had better snatch it
up, as there will never be another one like it!
We are taking a much needed few days
off over the Thanksgiving holiday, so will be
away from the shop from Thursday - Sunday
of this weekend. All orders placed over the
weekend will ship on Monday and Tuesday
of next week.
We wish you each a wonderful holiday
with family and friends!
Dream in Color Starry is back in the house
along with these adorable glittery notions cases
from Nancy's Knit Nacks.
Collect all three colors in glittery or non-glittery...
take your pick!
Or better yet, choose your Starry to match
your case...
Each case contains six small compartments
(yes, you read that correctly - six compartments!)
Check out all the doo-dads these cute little cases
can hold! Yep, I knew I needed one for each of my
knitting bags - one can never have too much
storage when it comes to knitting, now can they?
And in my book, a knitter can never have too
much Starry - isn't the sparkle just amazing?
Plum Paisley calling my name...
Purple Rain with a bit of Some Summer Sky perhaps?
Or maybe In Vino Veritas or Absolute Magenta
strike your fancy...
Whatever it may be, all that glitters is silver
this year at Woolgirl, so stop by to add a little
sparkle to your knitting today!
And later this afternoon we'll be adding
some fun soaps & lip balm from Naiad
Perfect for stocking stuffers
Or to spoil yourself with some luxurious products!
We will also be adding a few "select" colorways
which are new to us from Yarn Love,
as well as placing our remaining Dashing Dachs on SALE
to make way for our new shipment of Dashing Dachs
arriving in December -
so we hope to see you later today! :)
Happy Friday! May your weekend sparkle!
We've got Hazel Knits in the shop today
and throughout the day we'll be adding

Aurora Borealis colorway?
We'll also be adding lots of Starry DIC as well
as some cuter than cute stitch markers, soaps, and
several other goodies!
Happy Wednesday!
Pink Lemonade with a touch of Sweet Crush
Tulips sweetening my Spanish Wine
Red Carpet is just bliss
Firewalker oh...so...very fine.
Denim...
Blues singin' to my soul
A bit of Tailfeather...
Whispering Pines and promises of snow
Lochness or Sagebrush?
Nemo - so much fun!
Voileta meets Plum Glace
and form together one love.

Knitosophy is available now at Woolgirl, and for this
week only,starting today through Saturday, Nov 14th,
we're having a Dream in Color Treasure Hunt to celebrate
the arrival of Knitosophy.
What type of treasure hunt, you ask?
Well it's this simple! We have gone through and hidden winning
prize tags throughout our entire stock of Dream in Color -
throughout the Starry, Smooshy, Classy, Groovy & now
the Knitosophy. We've hidden 4 winning prize tags
throughout, and all this week for every purchase
of Dream in Colorthat you make,
the higher your changes of winning one
of these prizes. Of course, not even we know which skeins
have the hidden prize tickets, because we had our super
assistant Linda hide them well amongst all of the DIC.
If your order includes one of these prize tags, you will win the
corresponding prize package. Each prize package will include
a gift certificate to the shop, as well as some extra holiday
goodies we've put together to make it fun!
We will notify all winners this week and will post a
list of winners on the blog next Monday, November 16th.
We also have a little blog contest to share with you this week!
We want to know...if you could be any superhero, which one
would you be? Would you be an already created superhero
or would you be newly created superhero? What would
your powers be and why?
You will have until this Friday to submit your answer on
the blog and a winner will be announced this Friday afternoon.
The winner will receive a skein of Knitosophy in their color choice
as well as some other fun Superhero items to make their
knitting more interesting! :)
Happy Wednesday!
Birches in Norway
Art Deco on my mind
Icicles shimmering on Glacier Lake
Tilting the Gizmo to unwind.
Birches in my heart
Spice Market in my soul
Anemone full of color and life
Earl full of glow.
Begin the holidays with a bit of Curious Creek
this Sunday, and add a bit of Birches to your heart!
We will also be adding new bags from
Knit Purl, Sew What? in lots of fun designs...
(can you tell I'm an animal lover?)
A few new Madtosh Silk lace colors will
strut their stuff this Sunday,
along with these amazing Halloween stitch marker sets
from Sunneshine. And yes, we do realize that
Halloween has now passed us by; however, these
stitch markers never go out of style! You may have
seen one or two of these beauty's included with
your orders this fall, as we were gifting these
with our Halloween orders..and they
were just so cute that we decided to offer them as a
full set in the shop. In each set there's a
pumpkin, ghost, black cat, witch, gargoyle,
skeleton and vampire. Cuter than cute!!!
It's time to announce the winners of last week's
Halloween blog contest!
Drum roll please....
First Place: Erin
Second Place: Joanne
Third Place: Sarah R.
Congrats to each of you! I enjoyed reading what
your favorite parts of Halloween are! I loved each
and every story! Thanks for sharing!!!
Happy Friday!
Hope your weekend is filled with knitting, warm soup,
afternoon movies, and lots of R&R! :)

Happy Monday!
A few weeks ago Barb came by with two of her
closest friends for a visit of the new shop. Barb is
from Canada, so it was so much fun to get to see
her while she was in Portland! And, wouldn't you know it,
she didn't leave empty handed! :)
Look at all of that amazing yarn behind us!!!
It's a hodgepodge of colors, that's what it is...so
I decided to focus today's post on a hodgepodge
of information - loose ends that need to be mentioned,
I suppose. It's always good to have a day like that, don't
you think? First thing's first - we have some new
Knit Purl Sew What bags in the shop, and will have
more over the course of the next few days, so stay
tuned for lots of new designs.
Including Black Cat, Owlie, and Candy Corn!
And did you notice that all bags - including
Knit Purl Sew What? bags are on currently
on sale in the shop? Just thought I'd mention that
sort of important piece of information.
We have also posted extra of our Pirate Snoopy
sock kits for purchase in the shop, so now is your
chance to pick a complete kit up if you missed one
the first go around!
For those of you who are sock club members or
who have been members of a past kit this year,
we'll be posting kit extras and yarn this weekend
sometime, so be sure to come by for some cool deals!
Early next week we'll be announcing our 2 special
edition Christmas kits for this season - and we think
you'll really love them! More on this early next week...
And remember the Halloween contest we announced
on the blog earlier this week? The Reese's Peanut
butter cup contest? The answer is most definitely
C - they use cocoa butter in their chocolate!
The winners of the contest are:
First prize: Anna
Runner up prize: Carmen
Congrats! I will be contacting each of you today
to discuss your prize packages!
And on to our final October Halloween contest
for the season (it almost makes me a tad bit sad!).
We want to know what your favorite part of Halloween is...
maybe it's having loads of trick or treater's over on Halloween
night OR maybe it's the whole "getting dressed up" part of things.
Maybe you're like me, and just love the fact that it's another
excuse to eat candy! Whatever the reason of your love for
Halloween, please post it! On Monday morning we will
choose three random names from all of those who entered,
and the prizes will be as follows:
First Prize: $50 gift certificate to Woolgirl
Second Prize: $25 gift certificate to Woolgirl
Third Prize: $10 gift certificate to Woolgirl
Told you it was a whopper of a Halloween contest!
Happy Friday and have a safe Halloween!
