NOw for the chit chat stuff:

Will it finally be summer?...you need to knit socks for
people...portable and useful...so many great colors in now! Mew Mew will
be needing 4, and she is partial to grey tones.
Speaking of socks....always my choice for travel knitting project using
Magic Loop method. Lt wt.....no risk of loosing or breaking a d.p. in
the seat cushion. Small yarn and needles make for more knitting/value
time!

Thank you and meow meow to all my customers who help Mew Mew's Yarn Shop

While Sue is away, there's no telling what will be on the 20% off table.
It's always less hectic in the summer , so stop in for a chat...it's
alway cool in the shop...in fact sometimes we have to go outside to warm
up in the summer!
*****************
Bird nest update: Every year for the past 7 years robins have raised
babies in the nest right outside our front door of the shop.
This year there is a surprise....Another variety has taken residence and
updated the nest fixture! The bird is black and white with a black
throat and neck. Every time I try to take her picture she takes off.
But this nest looks like the spiky kind of nest I would build, not neat
like the robin's. The Attachment is a picture of the nest, but I
couldn't get a good picture.
**************************
Have a great early summer.....
