*** SALLY
MELVILLE <== WORKSHOP COMING TO JSY JSY
will be hosting a 2-day workshop in the fall with none other than nationally
acclaimed Sally
Melville. Anyone
and everyone who has ever been to one of her workshops will tell you it is well
worth your time & money! Sally
Melville is best described as a knitting coach: at your side encouraging you to
progress in your knitting, providing hints and tips, rescuing you when you make
mistakes, and showing you not only how to knit but how to enjoy life while
knitting. Details:
(last updated on ==> April 19th.)
* October 11th
(Saturday) and October 12th (Sunday).
* 24 students (maximum)
* 3 workshops:
Saturday (full-day) class: Essentials
Skills for the self-taught knitter
No matter how advanced and accomplished we've become, there are
'holes' in our experience. We all need the best methods and
hands-on
experience in our repertoire. Learn new skills and expand
your horizons!
Sunday (Morning) half-day class: Stripes
and Stripes that aren't
Everyone can knit and wear stripes! Explore ways to build,
knit and match.
Play with simple stitch patterns. You'll be amazed and surprised with
results.
Sunday (Afternoon) half-day class: Emergency
Measures
"Something is really wrong!" "This is a
drastic mistake!" "What a mess!"
"It's too short!" "It's too long!" "It's too
wide!" "It's too narrow!" "It's outdated!"
"The color's bad!" "The edge isn't holding up!" "I'm
out of yarn!" "I forgot it!"
Hold on! There are remedies. Everyone struggles. But you may become
insightful, intuitive and more confident learning these emergency measures.
* Location: Pointwise: 215 South Jennings Ave. 2nd floor Conference Room. Rear parking lot entrance.
*Class Registration:
$250.00 for the entire weekend. Lunches and refreshments are
included.

be maintained

All registrations must be confirmed (including any replacements).
Registration consists of a minimum of $50 deposit and basic attendee
information.
September 20th will be the final date for fees to be paid in full. This
workshop promises to be an enjoyable experience that will reward us all - in so
many ways. Just
meeting and greeting Sally Melville and other local knitters should prove to be a worthwhile experience
on it's own.  Simple
bio: Sally Melville began knitting early with the Brownies.
She lives in Ontario Canada and travels the world over promoting our passion. Her series "The Knitting Experience" (3 books) is a
revolution in the why's and wherefores of knitting. Knitwear designs, expanding the garter-stitch repertoire of The Knit Stitch to stockinette stitch,
reverse stockinette, ribbed patterns, and mixed knit and purl patterns in
garments for women, men, and children, right and left-carry instructions for
the purl stitch and many many more techniques are gloriously illustrated with a
succession of clear photographs. Sally also touches on the somewhat unusual
technique of purling with the yarn tensioned around the knitter's neck. Advanced
knitters will enjoy patterns like "Not Your Mother's Suit Coat."
Whatever your particular fancy, Sally is bound to expand, expound and export you
toward a better world of knitting and crocheting. BUY HER BOOKS. READ HER
BOOKS. BE FOREVER TRANSFORMED! (top)

IT'S
A
REWARD FOR LOYALTY
AND CONTINUED PATRONAGE.
Here's
how the CLP-2008 works:
1. For every purchase at
JSY
our customers earn
Discount Points:
* 1
Discount Point for each $20 increment: $0.01-19.99, $20.00-39.99, etc.)
* For example: $124.99
(before tax) earns 7 Discount Points.

Ending August 31st, Discount Points
are earned:
* Discount
Points not
transferable.
* Maximum
25 Discount Points per customer per earning period (1-1-08 to 6-30-08).
3. Beginning September 1st and Ending December
31st, Discount
Points are used:
* Each Discount Point earned
now becomes a 1-for-1 conversion into a Discount Percentage:
For example: 20 earned Discount Points now become 20% discount on all
purchases.
* Purchases on all
shop merchandise (consignments,
sale items & services excluded).
* On CLP-DAY
only: Thursday's,
every week, until the end of the year 2008.
(Discount Points can
be used only once per CLP-DAY per customer.)

Social
How about getting together on a Sunday afternoon?
We gather at 3pm on EVERY 3RD SUNDAY

at JSY!
Just bring your smile and a knitting/crocheting project because there are ...
...no agendas,
...no pressures,
...no purchases (not necessarily necessary nor negated)
...no serious stuff.
There will be fresh coffee, a water cooler/heater, a microwave and some goodies
to munch.
We just sit-n-knit, swap yarns, maybe do some fixin',
admire one another's projects, show
off family pictures, relax and have a bit of fun.
If you have other hobbies or crafts
or skills you might want to share them also. Whatever. Great way to
just get away from it all!
IT'S ONE FOR ALL ...and... ALL FOR ONE ...and... ALL JUST FOR ALL THE FUN OF IT ALL ..... Y'ALL!

*** Wish
Book
Ever touch and feel wonderful yarn you've had
your eye on for a long time?
Knowing it's just not within the budget right now?
A bit frustrating, isn't it?
Well, just fill out a page in our great little WISH BOOK.
It's designed specifically to get you that yarn you've wanted and
needed for so long.
It's like an ongoing registry that you can tell your family and friends all
about.
Next birthday, anniversary or Christmas and THEY can get YOUR favorite stuff.
Now there's no excuse they can give.
We do all the hard work.
All they have to do is
buy it for you.
They feel great knowing you are getting what you REALLY want.
You feel great knowing you are getting what you REALLY need.
We feel great knowing all y'all feel great.
Everybody wins.
