Update for 1/28/13

January 28th, 2013

Lori’s 12-2 class will be cancelled for today and made up on Feb 18th.  Several people expressed concern about the road conditions, so we felt it was better to be safe than sorry.  However, the store is open at this time and will remain open until 9pm.  Hope to see you soon!


Closed Due to Weather

January 28th, 2013

Rochester Community Schools are closed this morning due to snow and ice so, in accordance with our snow policy, Skeins, too, will be closed for at least a little while this morning.   The 9:30am class with Cris is cancelled for today and will be made up on the morning of Monday, February 18th.  Other classes today are expected to run since the roads should clear up before too long.  We expect that the shop won’t be closed for very long this morning, but please check back here for details.  We’ll open as soon as it’s safe for someone to get there.  In the meantime, please stay safe and warm.


Madeline Tosh has arrived!

November 29th, 2012

Today we took a delivery of 864 hanks of Madeline Tosh yarn in 5 weights, nearly 100 different colors, and weighing almost 200 pounds!  Doors open at 9:30am on Friday, November 30th… Let the drooling begin (just not on the yarn, please)!


Come Celebrate Your Birthday!

June 18th, 2012
Have you ever had one of those days when you just kinda wish it was your birthday (without the getting older part, of course) and everyone would be nice to you for a day?
 
This week, you should celebrate a birthday.  Personally, I’ll celebrate my 21st.  Yeah, yeah, yeah… I know.  ANYWAY…
 
Come into Skeins any time this week and tell us you’re celebrating a birthday.  To help you celebrate, we’ll give you the birthday discount of 20% off an entire purchase of in-stock yarn.
 
We don’t want to encourage dishonesty, so let’s not pretend it really is your birthday (unless it is, of course!).  Let’s just be honest and say you’re celebrating one.  We won’t ask any further questions…  But you have to be sure you tell us you’re celebrating a birthday - this sale isn’t an automatic discount.  I know… Tough crowd.  At least we’re not asking you to sing “Happy Birthday” for a discount!  Smile emoticon
 
Same policies apply as always… Sale items are final sale, discounts can’t be combined, sale is on in-stock yarn only, blah blah blah.. You know the drill.  The birthday celebration runs June 19th - 23rd, 2012, only.  We’re sorry - no exceptions.  See you soon!   - Lori
