What to expect
Due to the intimate size of Cardigans, I am required to ask everyone to attempt to maintain social distancing when you are in the shop. I have reorganized the store to assist with social distancing.
You should be wearing a mask and be prepared to sanitize your hands before handling any merchandise. I am also allowing only 3 people shopping at a time in the store.
Appointments are available especially for our first responders and those with health issues that need to be away from other people.
For those of you still unsure or uncomfortable to be in an enclosed space—you can visit my website for online shopping!
At the moment any gatherings in the shop such as classes and
cardiclub will still be temporarily on hold until further notice.
STRONGER TOGETHER.
SAFELY APART.

I was in the process of bringing a new yarn into the shop, one that would be dyed exclusively for Cardigans - then the Pandemic hit and the shop was closed! Well, I immediately called my vendor to have the dyeing stopped - I was a little too late as 7 of the 12 had been finished. I have them now and I think that they're pretty spectacular!

I'm excited to announce that my new online store, Cardigans to-go, has launched! Check out some of the products under the SHOP tab. My mission, as usual, is to still provide the best quality products, so check it out and let me know if you have any questions or feedback.
Merchandise is available via USPS or pick up at the shop.
Cardigans Gift Cards will always be available - one size fits all. Not usable yet on the website, but I can make them work - email me.
Let your neighbor, knitting cohorts, co-worker or best friend know about our Launch!
The more folks that know about it the better!
