Announcement!

Dear Yarn Shoppe Ladies,

 

This won't come as a surprise to most of you, as the grapevine is still working beautifully.

 

Yes, The Yarn Shoppe is for sale.  Since several of you have shown an interest,  I need to hear from you within 10 days if you are interested in buying it.  The reason for haste now is the this is the season for knitting and the Quad Cities needs a place like The Yarn Shoppe to come to without having to go out of town to buy excellent yarn.

 

Please contact me personally if you are interested.  I can be reached at 563-359-3398 or 1-800-397-3398 or in the evening, my home number is 563-359-8592.

 

If I don't hear from you within 10 days, the shop will need to be closed.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jean Jones, Owner
