Lorna Miser and Red Barn Yarns!!

Friday April 29

Our last event was almost a month ago. Time sure does fly. We had Catherine Petitti and her amazing handpainted yarns, Red Barn Yarns, here for a trunk show.

We where busy the whole time she was here and every one loved her yarns. 

If you missed it here is a video of what went down.

Friday April 29 will be our next Event. 

Lorna Miser, founder of Lorna's Laces, is coming to our Arcadia location to sign her books and then lead us in a workshop about how to get the most out of those beautiful hand painted and varigated yarns. 

Can you think of a more perfect day? Playing with beautiful yarns and learning from one of the first women to do hand dyed yarns?

I think not. 

For full information go to the Lorna Miser page 

Email me right away if you want to attend the workshop

Yarn Clubs



 

Knitter's Review (which you already subcribe too right?), has a list of yarn clubs that are worth looking into. These clubs very in price and structure but are the best way to get your hands on some very good yarns and enables you to experience yarns and colors that may be out of your normal preferences. 

The one most intriguing to me is Foxfibers. You are buying shares of yarn or fiber from a small farm. They produce the yarn from lamb to skein. If you want green yarn it doesn't get any better then this!

Sandara Yarn(pictured above) is one of my favorites!!! At one time impossible to get a hold of.
