TNNA is done but we aren't quite finished!
The show floor has been broken down and we are all on our way home.
We still have a few more entries to post here so stay tuned!
I will also be posting some pretty photos to a Hello from TNNA set as soon as I can.

Michelle and Adam Gardner of Bo-Peep Fine Yarns (http://bopeepfineyarns.com) in Ligonier, PA demonstrate their own invention - adjustable length circular needles. The cable slides in and out of the hollow needle body and there is a twist mechanism that locks in the length that you need.

Erica from Kollage Yarns took the time to chat with us about their new Feed Your Creativity program - 10 months of 10 different fibers of their yarns and 10 different projects to knit. It’s a great way for shops and customers to sample the Kollage line as a part of a monthly club!
