My Sister Knits will celebrate Local Yarn Store Day on Saturday, April 26th!  The last Saturday in April is set aside to celebrate local yarn stores and what they bring to the community. This marks the seventh year of this special day, created by TNNA (The National Needlearts Assoc.).

While My Sister Knits likes to carry local and regional yarn, we also like finding international treasures that not many other shops carry.

Today I want to tell you about three things that all tie in together: a book, yarn, and a wool festival. As I was reading Clara Parkes’ book Vanishing Fleece last week, I was so absorbed in it that I want to share it with you!
