There are a LOT of fun events happening this month in Seattle, so I hope you find some community events that excite you, and you find new ways to connect with the city and support your local businesses. Text a friend, go for a walk in your neighborhood and discover something new!
Sunday March 15th from 3 - 6pm at Halfseas Wine + Bottle Shop
Ballard | 5413 6th Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98107
It’s been a minute and we’re back! Halfseas is a beautiful little wine shop - pouring a selection of wines daily + bites and light eats. Stay, sip and snack with me or peruse their selection of to-go bottles.
I will be popping up with a special drop of Limited Edition Beanies in Spring colors from a new yarn brand. Weather permitting I will have a rack of spring-inspired vintage and some other goodies to check out.
Halfseas is open on Sunday from 3 - 9pm. Wine by the glass, bottles to go, N/A options and light snacks are all available to purchase. Kids welcome - dogs allowed outside. Make a full day of it and explore the coffee shop next door for brunch ( Red Arrow open 7am - 2pm ) or dinner after at Brimmer and Heeltap for Spaghetti Sunday ( open 4 - 9pm, Oyster & Wine HH served from 4-5pm. Reservations strongly recommended for dinner. )
Saturday March 28th from 11am - 4pm at The Tacoma Flea
Tacoma | 5101 Yacht Club Road Ruston, WA 98407
I’m headed south of the city to connect with our friends in Tacoma and meet some new faces. I’ll have racks of new spring vintage, lots of Beanies, and a rack of deep discounts ( think extra goodies from our Warehouse sale ). Find me with my black & white striped fitting room and table of colorful knit goodies.
See you there!
the Folded Scarf
Thank you for the outpouring of excitement for my newest knitting project. I’ve had this idea on my mind for a while, and I finally found the time to sit down this past weekend and figure it out. It’s been a fun one to design & bring to life!
the Folded Scarf will be released as a knitting pattern in early March alongside our growing library of fun projects to knit. My knitting friends - please stay tuned for the launch date, and a special discount promo that will be available for the first 48 hours.
For everyone else that wants to get their hands on a Folded Scarf, we have opened up a very small number of them to pre-order - in 5 of our best-selling Beanie colors.
I will not be making and selling these in the future since my plan was to only release this as a knitting pattern. If you want one, please take advantage of this chance to pre-order. Perhaps down the road ( and time-willing ) I will make a few more and do limited release drops based on interest. For now, I have a pocket of time to work on these and am very excited to offer the chance to knit one for you!
