We are very nearly to that special day of the year when card companies sell outrageous numbers of cards (more than Christmas!), your favorite dining establishment is full all day, and the long distance phone lines are buzzing..... Mother's Day! This year Mother's Day is Sunday, May 13. May we suggest a few gift ideas for your fiber loving mother, or to put on your Mother's Day wish list? 
Of course, there can never be enough fiber. This beautiful combination of Tartelette, Bali, Pure Silk, and Lang Opal would make a lovely summer top, or fabulous shawl to throw over your shoulders on a cool summer evening. We have a wonderful selection of luxury fibers like silk, linen, mixed novelties, and 
Artyarns Silk Rhapsody, a mohair and silk blend pictured at left. Absolutely yummy.
A ball winder and/or skein holder is always a great idea since so many of the finer yarns need to be wound into a ball before use. Our accessory wall is full of useful gadgets that any knitter/crocheter can't have enough of. We also have a large variety of knitting bags in many sizes and colors. Everything from a small sack to carry a sock project to large, full of pockets designs to carry large or multiple projects. One can never have too many bags.
My very favorite gift idea, and the one I ask for at each and every gift giving holiday is a Unique Yarns gift certificate. Available in any dollar amount, they are sure to make any fiber loving mother smile with gratitude. They can be used for both retail purchases or to pay for classes, which reminds me that the summer class newsletter should be arriving at your door very soon! If you aren't on our mailing list, stop in and sign up!!
Ha! HOLLY! Crochet slipped in there somewhere...didn't it?! lol
