Summer Time and the Warmth is Real.

 It is almost here! Summer! Warmer days and nights. beaches, picnics, long walks, everything I think about all winter long! Knitting is already nestled in my car waiting for those spur of the moment beach afternoons where I can sit on a sun kissed and warmed bench and knit. Watching birds soar and water move, makes me feel as if all is well every where I get time to think and dream while knitting. 

Here is a picture and a little history of Diva's home location. It is the James & Hastings 

Building circa 1889. We love being in this old building. To know that we are continuing the tradition

of knitting that was also a time honored passion and necessity in 1889, makes me feel connected to many generations of knitters, crocheters and fiber enthusiasts.


Summer is around the corner and we are on the corner in town just waiting for you!

MID WAY

 Somewhere out there in cyber space floats the blog posting I began a few minutes ago... someday I hope to become more masterful in how I use technology. Then there is the other side of me who says, I like people, meeting customers in the shop, face to face, in real life, in a real store with really touchable merchandise and interesting conversation and crafters and fiber lovers. I hope we never lose any of this part of our world.

Anyhow, we are mid way between winter's dark days and the spring equinox, I can feel the air being more alive, colorful. I feel inspired in what I see and as I wait for more yarn shipments in DIVA YARN, I am dreaming of warm afternoons on my front porch or at the picnic tables across from my shop, right on the beach and knitting, conversing, feeling at peace with the world around me and expressing gratitude for all of this out into the heavens. Happy almost there spring!




PS - Of course I have to have a picture of my model, the ever patient Lucas showing off my favorite cotton scarf. See you soon!

Also at DIVA YARN!

 Just a quick pop in to wish you all a happy, healthy, prosperous 2024 and to say a heart felt thank you for being our customer. We hope to see even more of you in this new year and have some exciting things coming up as we return to the brighter, lighter, warmer time of the year. 

We also carry fabrics in Diva, in the lobby, and recently received a bunch of the Bali cotton batiks in. These are 100% cotton and available by both yardage and in the fat quarters that we all love. I call fat quarters my instant dinner napkins. No fuss, no muss, just use them as is after removing the price tag first. Wink wink...




Aren't they pretty and inspiring? Happy New Creative Year!
