...soft yarn...

...and a book filled with patterns...your fingers will itch to grab those needles...

The party continues...
2-Day Mitten Workshop
Meet Bella Donna!
Saturday, Feb. 4
from 10 am to 4 pm
and
Sunday, Feb 5
from 12 noon to 5 pm
Cost: $70
(book is included)
The Bella Donna fingerless mittens are well loved by all who see the photos...well...except for Mr. Knitting Nest who pretty much doesn't care for them at all. He prefers his "rustic" pair,
you know - plain and practical!
I say, to each HER/his own!
The Bella Donna mitts possess a certain simple elegance! The fluted cuff alone makes them extremely pretty and feminine, and a cable belt and/or knitted flower may be added for extra emebllishment. You decide!
Refreshments will be available.

The Knitting Nest is a cozy shop in the heart of Historic Downtown Maryville, Tennessee featuring loads of luscious yarns and an inviting atmosphere that encourages customers to sit, knit, and chat. Antje Gillingham, Proprietor of The Knitting Nest and author of Knitting circles around Socks , Knitting More Circles around Socks , and Knitting circles around Mittens and more was born and raised in Germany where she learned to knit as a young girl. Antje mixes her old world charm with southern hospitality and gushes with enthusiasm for the home craft of knitting.

An interview with Antje Gillingham



Come in and nest for awhile!  We have plenty of space where you can escape your daily routine and trade stress for a chat and a row or two of knitting. You'll find cozy corners, a knitting balcony, and a comfortable sitting area where you can discover or share ideas and inspiration with people who enjoy the same addiction passion as you. Come and join us at The Knitting Nest where we surround ourselves with a never ending supply of magnificent yarn and the pain
 pleasure of knitting our little fingers to the bone.
