A Mano Yarn Center

Ready For Our Closeup!

Guess what?  A Mano is one of the locations in Knitty Gritty Knitsters on the DIY Network! It was shot last year and began airing earlier this month. Have you seen it yet? If not, the next scheduled airing is July 31st at 12:30 pm eastern/9:30am pacific.

Unfortunately, according to Vickie, it appears to be the last new Knitty Gritty. Ever. Long live KG! May it live in reruns forever - or perhaps one day there will be DVD collection of all the shows, which would rock (hint, hint). Or better yet, maybe DIY and HGTV will recognize once again that there's more to the world than home makeover and remodeling shows and give us knitters, crocheters and crafters more airtime. Props to Vickie Howell for waving her crafty flag high, making the craft we love more visible, and especially for making us a part of the show. If you want to see some behind the scenes photos of the day Knitty Gritty took over A Mano, here's a link. Enjoy!

A Mano Yarn in the LA Times

Did you see it? A Mano was featured in the Image section of Sunday's Los Angeles Times. Here's a link - but you may need to register to see it.

Sock wars?

Sick of all that "knitting is the new yoga" madness? Need something a little more hardcore? Then you'll love this. But since I saw it in the Wall Street Journal, it's safe to assume that we're among the last to know.

We're ready for our close up...

Did you see it? A Mano Yarn and our awesome male knitters, crocheters and spinners were featured on NBC's Your LA, the popular daytime show which features cool destinations in and around Los Angeles. If you missed it, no worries. You can see it by clicking here. It was pretty cool seeing the shop on television, even cooler seeing all the guys doing their thing! Men are awesome... men who knit, crochet and spin - even more awesome. Men who knit, crochet and spin at A Mano are the coolest ever! Thanks to all the guys who came out to support us. You truly rock our world. Due to popular demand, we're making Men's Night a monthly event. Watch our schedule for the official day and time, then tell every crafty guy you know to come on down and join the fun!
