Pant...pant....pant.......


Wow…it’s already August! The dog days of summer have arrived, and it’s just too darn hot.

We have treats for you, though!

Our August sale runs from the 15th through the 30th, and for that time we’ll be offering 10% off of ALL special ordered equipment from Schacht Spindle Company! For those of you that are regular Springwater visitors, you know that we don’t offer discounts on large equipment – this is our one exception. It’s on everything that Schacht makes, from table looms to floor looms to their incredibly popular Wolf series looms to their Matchless and Reeves Saxony spinning wheels. You can even take advantage of the sale if you’re not close to us, as for a small additional fee we will be happy to have your purchase shipped directly to your home. Just call us for current pricing or stop by the shop and get more information!

I also JUST stopped by our master dyer’s house yesterday to pick up a brand spankin’ new batch of lace and fingering weight yarns for your summer enjoyment. These are stunningly variegated yarns (see the photo above!); we’ve got a wonderful mix of both multi-color and tone-on-tone yarns, which will work up into beautiful lace and other small-gauge yarn projects. She also sent us a few skeins of fantastic hand-dyed ribbon for those of you that love working with tape and ribbon yarns. Our experience has been that these sell very quickly, so I’d recommend stopping by soon to peruse the new yarns!

Our newsletter and new class schedule is coming out very soon...be on the lookout on our website in the next week, or check your mailbox for your copy in a few weeks. I've seen the class list, and there are dozens upon dozens of great classes for every fiber interest and skill level! I can't wait for you to see what we've got in store for you this fall!

Finally, if you have a LiveJournal account, you can read our blog entries on your friends list there! Simply go to our syndication page while logged in to your account, and click “add this journal to your friends list”, and each time we update you’ll be able to read it there.
