Introducing JOYS: A Journey of Yarn Shawl for knit or crochet!

Welcome to the Journey of Yarn:
A Four-Shop Shawl Adventure!

We're thrilled to have you embark on this exciting creative journey with us. This will be a knit or crochet adventure, your choice!  

Every other week, starting on I Love Yarn Day(October 12), a clue will be released for our adventure.  Your total ‘buy in’ will be 4 skeins of DK yarn(one from each shop) for each version you want to make.  You can always go bigger, too, but one skein(approx 250-300 yds) should be enough to do each clue as written.

You’ll need a size 6 needle for the knit version, and a size H(5.00 mm) crochet hook if you prefer to crochet.

Please note these are the release dates; you will continue to be able to pick up the clue after the initial date, if you can’t make it to the shop on release day. You can also choose an online option, but the yarn choices may be more limited.


Each shop will provide you with their pattern section and have yarn available to purchase for that portion of the shawl. Don’t forget to choose between the knitting or crochet version or try both! Check each shop before visiting for their individual shop hours.
