Our Maine Knitting Cruise slated for June 2018 has already started to fill up!

If you are curious about "life aboard the J&E Riggin you'll definitely want to read the October 13 article from The Washington Post describing what to expect on a Knitting Cruise in detail. If you still have any questions after reading this, the J&E Riggin website has a wonderfully informative FAQ page that should help! Elizabeth (at the Riggin office) is a trove of knowledge and can help with almost any problem.

Dates: June 27-30, 2018 (must be on board the boat on the evening of June 26). Registration information here.

Over the next several months, we'll be featuring yarn shops that are an easy stop on your drive to or from Maine. Take an extra bag, spend an extra day or two, and have fun!

One of the shops you definitely won't want to miss is Halcyon Yarns in Bath. Just about an hour from Rockland, Halcyon has been bringing yarn and fiber to customers around the world for over 35 years! Weavers, spinners and rug hookers all love their "Signature Collection" yarns but if that's not what you are looking for, they carry top quality name brands as well. This shop is definitely on my "must visit" list - you may want to add it to yours, too!
