EVERYONE DESERVES TO FEEL CREATIVE
The Artful Yarn is a fun, boutique yarn shop, a friendly retreat for local and visiting fiber friends! We love meeting fun knitters and crocheters from all walks of life, all skill levels and all connected by a love of fibering - whether it's online classes, new projects, new skills or a special event. We especially welcome the beginner and the not-so-confident. Our intentionally-curated collection focuses on yarn, supplies and gifts from other small businesses, especially those owned by women, families or their employees. We support fair-wage companies and those that foster ethical treatment of animals and responsible disposal of dye. Even our gift bags are made from recycled paper, not plastic. We're looking forward to meeting you!

Knit How Class Series
Once a month on Sundays Beginning October 8 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM Projects start with simple fingerless mitts. Then progress to easy cowls, a great hat, cabled scarves, mittens and then a cute cardie! Along the way you'll learn about using different yarns in different projects, fixing mistakes, and more! All you need to start is a desire to knit, basic knitting skills (cast-on, knit, purl & bind-off) and then you're on your way! Knit How is full of amazing, beautiful photography plus clear illustrations of techniques. It covers knitting basics, tools and vocabulary - something we do in our LTK classes! The book covers the joys and importance of knitting swatches and THE BEST projects that help build your knitting skills while creating pieces you would actually wear and give as gifts. Saturday, October 14
Every year, we ask you to bring new, unused yarn from your stash to our shop on October 14 and, in turn, we'll donate it to organizations that knit and crochet for people in need. All we ask is that you donate full skeins with tags/ball bands so people know what the yarn is. Here's our collective opportunity to be the good in our communities! If you are part of an organization/club/knit or crochet group that would like to receive free yarn for your mission, please contact The Artful Yarn to be placed on our donation list. |
