What are you doing tomorrow?

Why not come along to Loani Prior's

There are still a couple of places available for this hugely enjoyable two-day workshop.

10am - 5pm Wednesday 9th June 2010
9am - 4pm Thursday 10th June 2010

Loani uses the iconic tea cosy to demonstrate the wild and sculptural possibilities of knitting. You will be learning to knit in the round on two circular needles – a skill you can then transfer to knitting socks and jumpers and bags and all sorts of fabulous things. And you will learn to knit all kinds of beautiful motifs and accessories.

If you can knit a stitch and purl a stitch and cast on and cast off, you can join this class. If you consider yourself to be an advanced knitter and would like to start to knit outside the square of a pattern, this might also be the class for you.

Done Loani’s Workshop Before? If you have done a workshop with Loani before – be assured - she will have some new and wonderful knitting techniques for you to learn. Perhaps some cable knitting, or loopy knitting or Fair Isle knitting. So much to learn, so little time. She promises to send you home happy.

Wool Addiction has a new home!

Wool Addiction has moved to
"The Penders",
Shop 3, 20 Station Street,
Bowral


After nearly 5 years in our quiet little cottage in Bundaroo Street, we are delighted to announce that Wool Addiction has a new home in Station Street, in the bustling heart of Bowral.

And, the icing on the homemade cake (so to speak), is that we now have a Tea Room instore!

So, why not come down to Bowral to visit us over the Easter Long Weekend? You can explore our lovely new shop, then sit down and relax over a gourmet sandwich and a cup of tea!

We're closed on Good Friday, but open from 10am til 4pm on Saturday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday.

We're even easier to find than we were before: our new shop is on the corner of Station Street and Wingecarribee Street, right opposite Bowral Station.


For more information please visit our website, email us, or give us a call on (02) 4862 4799.

24 hours to spend up on yarn!

Fiesta La Boheme

Wool Addiction's Summer Sale
ends
at midnight AEST
on Saturday 16th January 2010


All yarn is reduced by 20% - have you stocked up for 2010??

Yes, that's right: from merino to mohair, cashmere to cotton, sock to silk, bamboo to boucle, it's all down by 20%

Think of all the New Year's Resolutions you'll be able to tick off once you've added the right ingredients to your stash! Of course, that's assuming that "empty my stash" wasn't one of your resolutions... but, how could it be?!

MasterCardVisa
Now, a kindly customer pointed out to me today that that our site didn't seem to accept payment by credit card. But guess what? It does!

I've now updated the site to make it a bit clearer, so you don't need to be put off by the thought that we only accept PayPal payments. The truth is that we use PayPal to securely process all our online credit card transactions, which means that we never see your credit card details, and nor does anyone else (except PayPal), so you can rest assured that your secret numbers are safe!

This was really useful feedback, and has enabled us to make Wool Addiction instantly more user-friendly, so if you have any thoughts, ideas or suggestions on how to improve our site, please don't hesitate to get in touch!
