| We had a wonderful weekend at retreat with friends, new and old! It was a lovely venue, great food, and so much fun! Thank you to all that attended!  We had a few special guests join us including Michelle from Squareknot Handmade bags and Kelsey from Primrose Fibers. Our attendees were able to shop the bags available and order custom bags with their own fabric combinations! We also had our Amazing Threads debut of the Roan line from Primrose. Our attendees had expert help in picking out the perfect color combinations for their next projects!   Megan from BriocheandBrews not only brought a new supply of unique, handspun yarn, but she also gave a spinning demonstration and gave a presentation on different fibers. These beauties are now available in the shop! Be sure to take a peek next time you stop in!  It was another great year of Fall Retreat! We can't wait to see your finished projects from this weekend and the start of your next incredible projects! If you took photos be sure to tag us on social media! #ATretreat22 and #ATretreat2022  As we head into the cold weather season - Help us Give Back -  Amazing Threads is collecting clean and gently used coats for elementary and middle school students. We have a network of volunteers who will distribute all donations. We will also take adult coats for the homeless. Winter will arrive soon! Your generosity is appreciated. THANK YOU! |

 Our retreat sweater selected last year was the Calliope sweater! It was so fun to see those that finished their project and were able to wear them at retreat! They look amazing!  We were also able to get a picture on Saturday at retreat of every one who was wearing something they had made! What a beautiful celebration of handmade items - knit & crochet! Everyone looks great!  |
