Here are some local links to start off your Tuesday…

  • The Mysterious Rack used clothing store at 12 Clement Street is kicking off weekly sewing and knitting classes, starting this week. Sewing classes are on Wednesdays from 7pm to 9pm, and knitting classes are on Sunday from 1pm to 3pm.

  • The Tidy Shoppe (4050 Geary), a salon offering waxing, bronzing and more, is celebrating its first anniversary with a party this Saturday from 6pm until 11pm. Stop by for their signature popcorn bar and live music in the backyard featuring Tidy Shoppe’s fiddle maven, and acoustic guitar heroes. “We could not have done this without our loyal; clients family and friends,” said owner Tricia Gillespie.
  • The Shan Yee Poon dance school at 403 Arguello is hosting their first open house this Saturday from 12noon until 8pm.

  1. Mysterious Rack is carrying clothing again? Last I heard they were a record/music store?

  2. Mysterious RAck’s website lists two Clement St. locations – inner Clement is clothing, outer Clement is music. If you remember how to find the North Star using the bowl of the Big Dipper, these two locations line up exactly with their third store in Kentucky.
