Where Hands Create.

Three! Drei! Trois! Tres! San!

Wendy Solberg - Monday, October 17, 2011

No matter your language of choice - we are now 3 years old!  

 

 

There is greatness in threes....

The Three Bears

 

The Three Stooges

 

The Three Amigos (yes, the dance was great)

 

The Three Graces

 

The list of the wonders of three can go on indefinitely...  However, to put it simply, we are delighted to have had our third anniversary celebration and to celebrate with such style!

 

The day started with the "unveiling" of this year's anniversary project and yarn, and I believe this year it is amazing!  Ilga Leja designed our shawl, Squash Blossom, and it was knit in the most amazing and luminous shade of turquoise!   It is quite a honor to the Navajo squash blossom necklaces, and I feel confident that this shawl will be something that will be passed down to knitting generations to come!  

 

 

 

 

We then simply celebrated with the many friends that we have made over the past three years!   It was a giant party all day...  We had cupcakes, raspberry champagne (thank you Jane and Connie), and the most amazing yarn ball/kitty cake that has ever been created (thank you Pam and Bobbie). 

 

 

 

I have noted time passing primarily in the children that we watch grow over the years.  Another baby is due any day - and it will be a treat to watch another baby grow and have a multitude of wonderful handcrafted clothes!  Alexis was due in just three days on Saturday when she came in to ensure she was stocked up on projects.  Alexis, thank you for stopping in, and we wish you another healthy baby!  You gotta love Atticus' great facial expression - is he winking?

 

 

In closing, many thanks to everyone for an amazing three years!  The three of us (yes, Mom, Dad and I are a three), are so lucky to have this experience.  We do recognize that our shop is our shop because of the people that frequent it.  We are merely a shell for the amazing people that come each week and connect with us and others around yarn, patterns, and laughter!  

 

Well....Noro and Laurel are pretty awesome too...  Speaking of, I could not end without another fantastic picture of Noro....
