GILDA'S CLUB KNITTING PROJECT

Flying Fingers is proud to be a drop off point in our part of Westchester County for the Gilda's Club Knitting Project in White Plains, NY. One of our Tarrytown knitters, Marcie, is enlisting local knitters to donate hand made chemo caps, scarves, shawls, socks and gauntlets.
Items may be dropped off at our 15 Main Street, Tarrytown NY address or sent to Gilda's Club, 80 White Plains Post Road, White Plains, NY 10601. Please mark all items as to fiber content and washing instructions, and whether or not the yarn was in a home with a pet or smoker. We encourage all of our wonderful knitters (near and far) to participate in this worthy cause.



RENOVATED BLOG
Our first year of blogging has proved what Elise knew all along... that she is just not the type to keep a diary! However... she has just kept at it and for reasons known only to her unconscious is determined to write more often this year. Denise has made some changes and not only does it look
great but there's a place to subscribe (you'll get send the updates) so you can make sure Elise keeps her word! So check out Elise's Flying Fingers and get the latest in store Class Schedule as well.


THE YARN BUS IS BACK!!®

The Yarn Bus™
What is the Yarn Bus?

What is the Yarn Bus?  ®
Simple! We want to see you!
It's our way of giving you a free ride from New York City to our Westchester shop!
It runs twice a day on Saturdays and Sundays (and other times and places by special arrangement).

Our shop is half an hour north of Manhattan, so a 3½ hour adventure gets you up here from one of our convenient stops in Manhattan, gives you ample time for shopping and browsing, and then gets you back to your stop in the city again. All while having a great time—just ask any of our hundreds of happy riders!

The bus is always free! It's so easy to sign up, with just a quick e-mail or call. The great thing is that since the bus runs so often, we almost never say no, even if you're reserving late in the week.

Come up this weekend. It's great with friends or just treat yourself.

How to ride the bus:

You have to get your free reservation. Send us the e-mail with what you want. We send you back the reservation. You show up for the bus. That's it. It's that simple.
