Knitters and crocheters: celebrate your independence and the DIY spirit at our Scarf Party!  Meet fellow needlecrafters, and enter to win a skein of luscious Boise Karabella cashmere yarn!

Bring remnant yarns to swap, mix, and match to create simple projects with lots of fun stripes.  We'll have bins to sort yarns by fiber content.   Our Yarnawhile knit/crochet instructor, Stephanie Magee, will be on hand to answer questions and troubleshoot projects--so bring your troubles with you.  All Crafts books will be 20% off during the party, and we'll draw for a free skein of deliciously soft, lofty Boise Karabella cashmere yarn.  Yum!

June 25th: Customer Appreciation Night and our 4th birthday!

The veggie tray was decimated, the table of free books much reduced, and a good time was had by all.  A few dozen of our dearly loved regulars helped themselves to free books and tasty Proper Eats treats last night at our 4th anniversary party.  And thanks to our customers, Sisters of the Road will receive $100 for their summer fundraiser.  Here's heading for number 5! 

Staff Favorites

The books we love best reveal surprising things about who we are.  For example, Nena didn't think of herself as an optimist until she took stock of how many of her favorite books are science fiction--which begins with the assumption that we will still be here tomorrow.  Check out our favorite books, and find new favorites of your own, on our personal pages.
