Parking alert for Los Altos/ Uncommon Threads

Please note that the Rotary Fine Arts Show is also taking place on May 14 & 15 (Saturday & Sunday) in downtown Los Altos, and therefore finding parking will take longer than usual. To make your visit easier, please come on Friday if you can, or come early, carpool or take public transportation. Uncommon Threads has two great free one-skein patterns that you won’t want to miss!

Just Two More Weeks!

We're continuing our preparations for the Hop. All the stores are getting their one-skein projects together -- but this year, you'll have to visit each shop to see the projects! Don't worry, though. That just means you'll have a chance to enter and win one of the daily raffles at each shop you visit. So far we have 24 sponsors (see the Sponsor page) that have generously donated products to make prize packages that you'll have to see to believe.
