Halloo!
This is the blog for KnitWicks, a little knitting/spinning/weaving? shop in Rogers, Arkansas. We are the home of the Knitting Commando(s), a group of intrepid knitters and spinners that meet... well, whenever we have a free moment, usually Thursday nights and Saturday and Sunday afternoon.
We are a fairly diverse group, including crocheters, knitters of all levels (including some wonderful designers), spinners, SAHM's, accountants, conspiracy theorists, business proffesionals, gay Frenchmen and even closet Republicans.
Some prefer silks, some prefer wools, some look for color, some look for texture, some of us LOVE Norah Gaughn (me), some of us think she's overated (you know who you are), but we ALL love fiber and knitting and laughing... so its all good.
The shop motto is knit happy, knit often, and that pretty well sums up my yarn selection... most of what I carry is stuff you can afford to knit with every day, with a few have to have its! laying about for fun. I like to encourage people to enjoy their knitting, it doesn't have to be fancy, it doesn't have to be expensive, it doesn't have to make you "grow" as a knitter. It has to be something you ENJOY.
