Spring has officially sprung here at the 'yarn barn' (as we affectionately refer to our home away from home), and we're in spring cleaning mode. Jimmy, a.k.a. Laura, has always claimed to have the biggest stash in the world, but she's out of town this week and we thought that while the boss is away, we'd share her treasures with you! Out of Jimmy's stash, we've curated a colorful assortment of Fingering Mystery Grab Bags that are sure to put a spring in your step.
Each Grab Bag will include 300g of fingering weight yarn from brands that we love (Madelinetosh, Lorna's Laces, and Malabrigo, just to name a few), a pattern (selected at random), and a few other goodies to boot - with a total value of $80.00. This might sound like a steal, but we still haven't told you the best part... They're only $45.00! Grab yours before they're gone!

Rain, Rain, Go Away... But with Urth Yarns it's all OK!
|
If you're like us, you like to think about spring as a fresh start. The snow melts, the sun comes out, birds chirp, and flowers bloom.
Or, sometimes spring means it rains. A lot. (it's been a particularly drizzly week here at the yarn barn!) Luckily, Urth Yarns are helping us feel a little sunnier. This exotic, self-striping yarn is available in three bases, Uneek Fingering, Uneek Worsted, and Uneek Chunky. The saturated hues have us dreaming in color, and we feel transported to a faraway (warm) land! We fell in love with this yarn, and Urth Yarns' mission - for every skein of yarn that is sold, they plant one tree in sub-Saharan Africa, in partnership with Trees for the Future!

If you've placed an order with us in the last week, some of you might have noticed that an eggs-tra special item hitched a ride with your yarn! The Jimmy Beans Bunny has filled 1,000 Easter Eggs with yarn samples, and has been randomly sprinkling them into your orders. There's still a $100.00 gift card out there, so be sure to check your next order carefully for an egg-citing surprise - these little eggs will continue to appear in random orders through March 31st!
