So some of you may remember how when I was getting ready to open the store I taled about Flicks and Sticks events.

Those of you who don’t remember are currently going “what’s Flicks and Sticks?” right?

Well it’s a movie and you knitting needles (sticks) of course crochet hooks, drop spindles what have you work too!

So what’s the deal exactly?
you come on in to the store, and bring your knitting, a movie and snacks will be provided and you just hang out and knit and watch a flick and have fun.

The store will be open for sales that day, and for each Flicks and Sticks event a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Charity.

February 28th will be our first one (I’m thinking monthly) it’s a Sunday and doors will open at 1:00 and the movie will start at 2:00.

It’s a no charge event, but as I say a portion of all the day’s sales will go to charity, you are also encouraged to donate what you can!

This is where the money will go in February
I love that this is an initiative which can provide ongoing income and a better life for a woman and her family. I also like that there is a connection to the fibre work we do for recreation (and sometimes for income)

I’d love suggestions of worthy causes for future months,
i know some things I’m thinking of are a sheep from Oxfam Canada, an alpaca from World vision, what else is out there?
