Dear Friends,

Each year since we opened on July 23, 2008, we have grown and learned from you. This year has been a unique community-knitting-together with the efforts poured into the MINI yarn bombing and events like the Bake Sale for Japan. From classes to parties, this Blazing Needles concept would not be nearly as fun or successful without your creativity, passion, and commitment to community.

To thank you and celebrate our third anniversary, we have a few fun things planned...

• Anniversary Sale: Monday, July 18 through Saturday, July 23 we will be offering an in-store sale on Noro, Debbie Bliss, Sublime, and many other items.
• Anniversary Celebration: On Saturday, July 23, Cynthia and the Blazing Needles Crew will buy you dinner from 6pm-9pm from Beach Shack Burritos and dessert from 7pm-9pm by So Cupcake. Bring your beverage of choice to share in the celebration.
• Anniversary Pick your Prize: All week long, every time you come into Blazing Needles, you will receive a raffle ticket. If you make a purchase, you will get more tickets. You'll be able to choose which prize you want to win by putting your tickets in the assigned prize container at the shop.

As we head into our fourth year of business, we look forward to more growth, bigger and better parties (if that's possible with all of you knitting crazies), more new yarns, more interesting projects, and more of this community that we love.

Thanks for all of your support!

See you next week,

Cynthia Mills
Owner and Chief Hospitality Officer
