A Little Knitty

Awhile ago I left this sweet little blog behind for bigger pastures.  This year I switched my website, which gave me a lot more freedom in the design, and an amazing back office point of sale system...however the blog component wasn't what I was looking for.

Hope you enjoy...more frequent blogging is coming at you! Jen

I feel the need to get things in order and KNIT, KNIT, KNIT!!!! Along with a pumpkin spice latte and super cheesy Hallmark movie. I'm so predictable....it's not even funny!

This was the closest I could find when searching our address. Next, I remembered a story that someone told me this was once a Ford dealership...and THAT is when I found it...the photo that showed the front of the building that was NO DOUBT our shop!
