Hi,

Just wanted to start with a great big thank you to everyone who has showed support for my studio by choosing to shop here.  With the tight economy, it is important to  patronize those business that we want to “make it” to better times.  Relative to other hobbies (i.e. golf), knitting/crocheting is actually cheap.  Please remember our classes fill up fast and we work on a first come, first serve basis.  For your convinence, you can now register online at www. mosaicyarnstudio.com.

Happy knitting/crocheting!                                     Darlene
