This is my first attempt at a blog.. here goes! www.tahoeknittingnest.com
Hello! And welcome to The Knitting Nest's blog... I'm Lauren and this is a little peak at my yarn shop. I opened last October (almost a year anniversary!!) in beautiful Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Over the past year, I've been a part of some really wonderful experiences that I'd like to share.
I had an open house/art show to introduce The Knitting Nest . I had a good friend display some of her amazing art: www.heatherpatterson.30art.com. And it was a great turnout! If it wasn't for the extremely large support of my Mother, Father, Sister and Ryan... Love you guys!
I started a "Thursday Night Knitting in The Nest" group - and found it to be just what I had hoped for. Good friends, wine, food, and lots of laughter! If only we could get some knitting accomplished :)
When a good friend, and husband of one of the TNKITK group, severely hurt himself, the ladies of the knitting group got together and made him an incredible "healing blanket". (See pic. below).
In April I had a booth at the Earth Day Festival, to show my support for all things "Earthy". I proudly sell many organic, and earth-friendly yarns, and try my best to help preserve Gaia.
I'm excited to be joining the Camellia City Stockinettes and to expand my knowledge and experiences as the owner of The Knitting Nest.
I hope you enjoy my blog... and Happy Knitting!!!
