Our Highly Anticipated Summer Events are Here!
Some of the summer events that seemed so far off in the beginning of June are finally happening in the next few weeks!
Our North Bay Fibers weekend with founder Jill Zielinski is upon us! She’ll be at My Sister Knits with yarn and samples on Friday, July 11th and Saturday, July 12th from 10 - 5. We hope you have it on your calendars but if not, and you don’t want to miss out, get yourself over the shop! She’ll have a question and answer session each day. If you miss that, she’ll gladly answer your questions about her yarn or her designs. Find out more by reading this blog post.
Salty Blonde Fiber colorway Strawberry Rhubarb, an example of her beautiful dye work!
On Saturday, July 26th, Ryan Page Haas of Salty Blonde Fiber will be at the shop with her stunning yarn! Salty Blonde is located just down the road in Elizabeth, Colorado. Ryan has expanded to dyeing some non-superwash in addition to superwash so expect a colorful array of yarns that day. In addition to her hard-to-resist usual colorways, Ryan will bring a special colorway, dyed just for us! We can’t wait to see it! Read more about the story of Salty Blonde here.
Saturday, July 26th is also the first day of the Hot August Knits Yarn Crawl! Have you made your plans yet? Participating yarn shops will be open every day of the yarn crawl, July 26 - Aug 9, making it easier to plan your route. This is the 15th year of the HAK yarn crawl which is always a highlight towards the end of summer. Read more about it and other events here.
